I care, I don't read GAF to bathe in consensus.
So basically the xbone is a better system?So am I right in saying that PS4 has 4.5Gb for games and Xbox One has 5.5Gb?

remember something though. On tablets your os and apps reside on flash memory which is much more responsive than hdds which consoles use. Therefore more physical memory needs to be used to maintain snappiness.I don't get how this is possible, let alone tolerable. Consoles OS should be closer to smartphones and tablets rather than PC, how in God's name does that stuff take three and a half gigabytes worth of memory at any given time? To do that on PC you need to do something big on Photoshop, have who knows how many heavily flash-based tabs open in your browser and game at Full HD, all at the same time.
RAM has changed.

I see Jonathon Blow has systematically deleted all his own tweets referring to the witness using 5GB

I am not really sure if this is a discussion anymore, but just some food for thought: In the PS3-lifecycle Sony halfed the memory-footprint of its OS. It was over 100 MB at launch and the later versions clocked in at around 50 Megs of mem-usage.
So lets dew the math... 4,5 + 0,5 + 1,75 (because OS-Footprint is halved) = 6,75 GB of sweet GDDR5 in 2018!!!!
Please tell me this isn't true, lol.
XBO has 5 and PS4 has 4.5 as far as I'm aware right now.
Not till 2014I'm so bored of tech talk now.
Can we see some new games please

Seriously what idiot thought that all 8 gigs would be used for games? Why is this an issue still?
hell Id be happy with 2 gigs of GDDR5 dedicated to games

This should be the theme of this entire debacle.. Who the fuck cares sounds better, but I'm willing to compromise.Who cares.

The only real take-away from all this is that all developers working on PS4 titles right now are working within the limitations of 4.5GB, while Sony's still messing around with the 3.5GB for whatever reason.
What the final allocation will be is still unknown, but devs can comfortably work knowing that no matter what, they'll havef 4.5GB at the very least.
Maybe by the end of the day, it'll be 7:1... or 6:2... or 5.5:2.5... or 4.5:3.5.
We have no idea because it's clear Sony still haven't finalised details on their OS allocation.
So all of the sudden people aren't supposed to care about console specs anymore? Why?This should be the theme of this entire debacle.. Who the fuck cares sounds better, but I'm willing to compromise.
DF are no longer the trustworthy source they used to be.
If people took my "nobody cares" seriously, I'd worry about their mental health, as I generally don't take Spongebob's opinion at face value.
It's an obvious attempt at humorously relaying my contempt for this tired topic. If I honestly thought nobody cared, the amount of pages already devoted to discussion in this thread would serve as a rude awakening.
Relax.

Damn, I just checked that because when people make testable claims I like to look them up.Read the thread its not people straight away showed the guy was lying about the tweets being deleted
I think everyone wants to know. It's an absurd number.I would like to understand why a console os would need over 3G of GDDR5. It does not compute.
