Sony stans is :umad:

They did it again. They lied to you fools and you believed them, now the truth comes out and your lying to yourselves :dead:

Sony pulled the ultimate bait and switch. They told you "our system is all about the games were adding 4gb of ram so we can have the best looking games around" Y'all ran around for months talmbout "Sony only cares about the game/gamers"

Come to find out all that extra ram is going for those evil "entertainment features"

Sony stanfact: Ps4 Ram is so fast ps4 can play all games at 1080p 60fps

Reality: Not one game on ps4 running at 1080p 60fps

You can't make this stuff up:wow:

word like I read this as a good thing. Still faster ram, faster GPU and possibly faster CPU. Combine that with a ground breaking controller redesign, lower price entry and native vita streaming that destroys a Wii U there's no clearer answer than the PS4 being the console for a gamer.

The Xbone will be the going against the grain man's choice(which is stupid.) :troll:
has the same CPU idiot :laff:

The Passage of Time
Now that I have calmed down a bit, I can see sony playing the long game with this RAM situation. Know MS is using 3GB for an OS, they possibly don't want to be caught with there pants down like this gen with no memory for cross chat. The memory allocation is 5.5GB not 4.5, so if they are to streamline it as the dev kits become final and they are to reduce the OS footprint or they are able to match an unforseen feature due to memory allocation they are sitting pretty simply because as of now no devs are using all of the memory anyway. Lets see how we look around this time next year.

Not sure what you've been saying, but the prevailing narrative was that the ps4 was this super powerful made strictly for games/gamers machine.



The ram solutions are different yet pretty much equal. And the "superiority" of the ps4 gpu is negligible. The reserved ram for os features is to future proof the consoles. As more features are added over the years that ram will come in handy.
Close to 2 times more powerful GPU i negligible.
