I don't think there will be a need to radically modify the hardware. The bulk of the work is done by the game engine and since it has close access to the metal via the API the performance increase is substantial.
You guys know how console developers are capable of extracting every bit of performance out of the hardware. It's because they have thin APIs that are very close to the actual silicon. That basically means they don't have all the bloat our PCs today have with Windows and directx and legacy drivers, etc. etc. All layered on top of each other getting in the way. A console strips all of that junk out and all you have is the gpu cpu memory storage and a very thin OS. The only limitations to get best performance are the developer's own coding skills and how well they learn the particular strengths and weaknesses of the console's GPU/CPU architectures. Mantle does exactly that, it gives the game engine very close access to the silicon.
Bad car analogy time: Developers today are driving our cars(PCs) sitting on the backseat with their seatbelts buckled, using a broom to push the accelerator with one hand and another broom moving the steering wheel. With Mantle they can finally sit on the driver's seat, with their hands on the steering wheel and their feet on the pedals.

Great, you are good to go thenI purchased the scout rank thingy like when this came out.
Anyone that has voted already can you take a screenshot or tell us how each option is doing?
Top winners I voted for, bottom one I voted LightingNah but I can break down the top 3 in each section:
Firing Range 33%
Lounge 22%
Meeting Room 13%
Windows 61%
Couch 16%
Banners 14%
Hoses 39%
Lighting 31%
Paint 29%
So I see talk about a [H]Faction or something within the SC Universe. What details have been ironed out? Any linkage to a thread or anything, or is it all just casual conversation at this point?
Its hard to say right now. The Cutlass hasn't been modeled yet but I get the feeling its going to be slightly larger than I was expecting. If you ask Mark he might be able to do a quick and dirty check to see if it will fit. As long as it physically fits in the hangar bay with enough room to walk around it without getting hung up on geometry then we'll allow it from the design side.
LOLsee? they should have invited me! i live nearby and have a whole toolbox of computer screws!
