I'm not seeing how what you're talking about equates to them lying.

Before Sony hit up the Devs you don't know what their plans were for how much RAM was going to be in the console for gaming. It might have been 2GBs for games and 2GBs for the OS before. So really adding extra RAM was for gaming seeing that it'll eventually be used for gaming.

:ld:

Sony stans lie to themselves to cope with the lies that Sony told them:dead:

I'm lying to myself how? If it was initially 4GBs of RAM how much do you think was going towards gaming/OS?
:childplease: :dahell: , sony proclaimed this system as being the system for gamers, the system that will have 8GB of GDDR5 Primarly for developers. now it's basically a shytter ver. of xbo with a awful OS

My man, it's is a lie of omission. Just follow this.

Cerny: System made for developers, we sought developer input at every turn. We added more RAM at devs request.

Adam Boye(Sony 3rd party relations) Gearbox dev said if you don't have 8GB's of RAM you're dead.

So Sony supposedly added the addtional 4GB's of RAM for the devs. Remember there mantra its about games.

4GB of GDDR5 512for OS extrapulate

add an additional 4GB of GDDR5

that's 8GB's of RAM and 512 for the OS.

They have been riding the wave of gamers proclaiming most powerful console, Cerny on the lecture circuit basking in the admiration of thousands.
Games, Games, Games oh did I Say Games?

Now this Digital Foundry expose' not a peep out of Sony. They were quick to tap down any rumor, even the one last week about only 7min record feature.

IT'S A LIE OF OMISSION AND THEY LEAD US ON TO BELIEVE THE LIE.

They already said it was less than a gig going to the os. That's why when the ram was doubled people assumed the os would need 1gb.

Your lying to yourself because you made up a whole story/scenario to excuse them for misleading fans.

This was supposed to be the ultimate gaming machine. Sony and their fans didn't care about all these "entertainment"

Now you find out its pretty much the same as the Xbox one with inferior features and your still looking for ways to defend the shyt :ufdup:

If not for anything else, they are going to allocate a lot of ram to overcompensate in the beginning. Remember that Microsoft reserved 32MB for the 360 and from what the 360 launched at to what is does now are two different beasts.

Nah, I honestly didn't know they were allocating 512mb for the OS (that's stupid anyway). Good thing they changed that.

I'm glad that are increasing it. I'm on record for saying that this is way for consoles to go. They need to be multimedia devices, everything else worth its weight is. I don't have a phone, I have a computer in my pocket that just functions as a phone. Consoles need the same mentality.

The worst part about this is that Y'all not mad. I am... If xbox doesn't live up to my expectations the possibility of ps4 kept me cool... now knowing that gap isn't what we thought it would be... I said it from day one... I wish they would have gone with that EDRAM. Future proofing. Now the Esram 192 gb/s is the best thing we got going.

How you know what we won't see??
Breh I'm going by past consoles. PS3 and 360 were "theoretically" close yet PS3 exclusives blew 360 exclusives away graphically despite them being close right??
That's pretty much due to their really talented
first party teams.
There are too many examples of the 360
stomping a hole in the ps3 when it came to real
world performance for ANYONE to believe it's superior
in 2013. :dead:

Worst case scenario 5.5 gigs of GDDR5. XLauce 5 gigs of hitty ram. That GDDr5 making a huge difference this gen. Xbox just gettin by.. 2x better GPU for ps4 still in tact. Higher clocked CPU still in tact.

A but xbots, theres always tv and hand gestures. :russ: Stop it. System still inferior and still a hundred dollars more expensive for features that have nothing to do with gaming. :heh: Game over.
