Killzoneunit.com have new information regarding Killzone 2, a PS3 exlusive first person shooter. They grabbed the information from the August issue of EGM that subscribers get early.
Apprently Killzone 2 will use four and a half of the six cores of the Playstation 3’s Cell processor. Technical Directer of Guerrilla Games, Michiel van der Leeuw says:
“Sony basically has an international forum for sharing character technology, animation tools and graphics shaders. ~ We’ve even taken a few tricks directly from the Resistance guys at Insomniac, and we’ve even been talking directly to the God of War guys in Santa Monica.”
If games look this good using 4 of the 6 cores i wonder what a game will look like using all the cores.

I really hope they make full use of the PS3 it’s power and possibilities.
6 cores, you what? there are eight cores in the cell.
Only 6 are usable by developers. Of the 8, one is redundant/backup, one is used by the system to control the other 6, which are programmable.
