VRAM is most important for textures, it's hard to judge the PS4's GPU as it may have tech that can be utilized for better performance then one would think it should at face value.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Thanks Blimblim!
They won our hearts! And this generation.

I speak for myself (and maybe others) here when I say this is the most shocking moment I've had with a video game since Mario 64, the first time I played a 3D game.

GPGPU and funny changes to the cache and side buses in the APU. Not so crazy when you remember this was also running in real time:
Cerny did say to lookout for year 2-3 when they really dug into the APU optimizations he requested. Not bad for some garbage PC parts thrown in a console case, eh?
Speaking of this, where was Quantic Dream at E3? Still too soon after BeyondTS to show anything? It'll be between them and Naughty Dog to see who pushes the PS4 the hardest in terms of photorealism I reckon.

Great news. ND are NG, but even I assumed this was still using the UC/TLOU engine rendering technique.

Like I said in the other thread:
Nope. Don't believe it. My mind can't even comprehend playing something that looks like that. If it looks like that while playing I will shit in my hands and rub it on my scalp.

NO FUCKING WAY!
There's no freaking way that's realtime at 60 fps!
My mind is overblown... I'm in tears...

And the GPU was designed for compute, sure the engine is a marvel.

Well, it depends on the validity of the Beyond3D source.
The Eurogamer analysis does back it up. I'd like to see some uncompressed 1080p/60fps video, but I'm not prepared to doubt Corrine Yu's word.

Uncharted's strengths aren't necessarily in its mechanics. It's in the pacing of it all. U2 doesn't have the best mechanics but it's paced so damn brilliantly. Uncharted 3 had better mechanics but was paced far worse and made it seem like a worse game to me
I'm just consolidating everything I can get my hands on. Source 5 is NDs official public statement on the matter, so was worth putting it there.

"More detailed high-resolution character models will be the standard throughout The Last of Us Remastered, with developers using renders previously used only in cutscenes for the game's PlayStation 3 version, creative director Neil Druckmann told Edge."
"For the PS3 original, these detailed renders were used only in cutscenes, then swapped out for lower-resolution versions when transitioning back into gameplay — a trick designed to make the game's more cinematic, dramatic moments look better."

impressive but still just a small teaser/trailer will hold the blowing of my mind until i see gameplay.
Well, the greater amounts of ram give the developers a bigger 'workplace' where they can store all the necessary materials they need. with little ram they would have to go outside and fetch parts they need and return them after they're done, which costs time and energy. Whith more ram they can use that time and energy to do cool stuff, with their fancy, not highend, but efficient modern GPU tools

Next level. Expect no less from the dogs.

That's not entirely true. I remember Uncharted 3 debuted with 60fps footage. But then Sony went on their 3D rampage and we all know how that turned out.
Cerny worked with AMD on certain APU optimizations that he really wanted. It was buried somewhere in his technical presentation on how the PS4 came to be. I don't believe MS did the same. First wave of games didn't/won't take advantage of these PS4 specific features, but Uncharted 4 hints at what the console can really do.

This, if any other dev said this, id be skeptical. Ill take ND on their words. They are seriously just on another level.

Yeah, but will they react to Drake's lips?
Don't think so, this is the best looking game I've seen.
ed: But then again, I'll wait for some actual gameplay footage.

When?
Thanks for the rectification. I remember there being big topic of conversation with the Uncharted series. In terms of polycount, I still believe it to be the same models, however.

I want to teleport to 2025 and see what Naughty Dog are putting out on PS#.
And it's only 2014! :[

Don't forget Sony Santa Monica. I think we will see QD at GamesCom
OP has the gamersyde video that you can stream or download. Recommend using the torrent.

Uncharted 4 looks beyond what I expected from Next gen. Cerny is awesome.
Basic family/tech of the GPU is along the lines of what you've probably read.
Thing is Sony had them add some changes to the GPU specifically to leverage over it's lifetime. Changes that really only work with a fixed console where they can code specifically to that one GPU and the special changes they made to it. ND is probably writing code in assembly language and binary right down to the metal if their past comments on development continue forward. You get rid of a lot of overhead than using a higher level API thats easier to code to.
So, if you put in the (hard) work, you'll get a lot more out than the other PC GPU's within it's "family" line.
That's the simple explanation. Also why the PC articles telling people how to build a next gen console NOW were kinda missing the forest for the trees.

pip pip cheerio you slags!
No, I think either GT or somewhere else re-rendered an uncharted 3 demo to be 60 fps. Pretty sure Uncharted 3 was always 30 fps.

oh shit didn't realize it was uncompressed footage. downloading now.
I think they are technical masters yes, but bear in mind this is a current-gen only game. We've seen so much cross-gen stuff that it really does look like it's on another level. And unless they're making a huge departure in gameplay and pacing, it's going to be relatively linear compared to the deluge of open world games we're seeing this gen.

Only the first parties will bring their A game. But we've already seen how talented Naughty Dog are. They've consistently produced the best looking games on their respective consoles.
Crash, Jak, Uncharted, The Last Of Us.
Underpowered consoles redeemed.
