i hate how home consoles now are just "pc with fucked up freebsd/windows".
they should make another console that has 7 cores of an architecture you've never heard of
games should run at kernel level and have to include their own scheduler. don't worry, you can have 3 cores of 3 different architectures to manage filesystem access and such.
@artemist The deal with consoles was *supposed* to be that they're hyper optimized platforms built for games that don't have anything else on them to slow you down.
No background processes, no abstractions and middleware to deal with different platforms. You can profile your game and know it'll run at exactly the same speed on everyone's machine.
And cheaper because it doesn't need expansion card slots, lots of disk drive interfaces, a keyboard, or any of the other stuff a PC has.
Building them as "PC, but with more DRM" completely misses the point.
