I'll give you that PS3 had a better CPU profiler but ProDG was a mess compared to Visual Studio. Crashes, disconnects, problems with source maps. If I remember correctly it couldn't do data or conditional breakpoints. Compared to VS and PIX it was night and day, although you probably already knew that from my comment.
