"I do not see it as bullshit/stupid" could be interpreted a few ways.

Specially since he says right after that "right now". It means that this non stupid thing might be stupid tomorrow.

Oh i get it eurogamer is trying to skew things in favor of Xbone again.
I'm being facetious

Amazing, isn't it?

Gojira improves your life. Just constantly have it playing in the background.

You could be filling up your car at the station, and you exit your car, shut the door behind you...dundundun dundundun.

I agree. Makes you feel like a badass

Where did all of the OS imprint stuff come from for both systems? If it was all just speculation or nothing official, I think this news is just going to be that the OS imprint is along the lines of the rumored (or is it official) X1 imprint.
The X1 3GB OS stuff was confirmed by Marc Whitten of Microsoft and Rashid Sayed of Avalanche. PS4 OS usage is unknown at this time. Many have speculated that it will be 1GB, but no one knows at this time.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
I really hope that there is only 4GB. Perhaps people would stop believing Sony all the time.

Another one for the pile! Boy, its just oozing out tonight. Must be the heat.

Sony's engineers have uncovered some special holes in the silicon that the GDDR5 is made from.

Unlike the holes in Microsoft's eSRAM, that magically boost the bandwidth by 100% greater than anyone knew previously (and was only recently discovered my MS engineers), Sony's GDDR5 holes actually decrease the bandwidth by 50%.

Look I hate your typical Sony superfanboys as much as anyone, but why the hell would anyone want to see a new system gimped like that?
It's bad enough that MS gimped the One in the way they did and fucked us so bad that I'm not willing to give them anymore money for anything at this point, even though I normally buy every system that comes out. But now cheering for Sony to fuck up as well? SMH
 
man this threads reactions are depressing...

Somehow with how things leak all the time, i have a feeling some kind of downgrade would have been outed by now. If not from a major one, then from an indie dev. I love them but they are not afraid to spill the beans when they get shafted in some way.

Might need to stop sniffing glue
Just like I won't jump to guess what it is, I won't jump to think its nothing either. I'll relax until there is actually something to react to

Was there ever a time when a company showed their console's specs and then changed it dramatically near launch?If not, Sony backtracking to 4 gig ram seems very unlikely.

If it does happen though, Microsoft would be so thrilled they aren't the ones getting all the shit for once. It wouldn't save them though, greedy bastards.

It's sort of sad that people are cheering for the PS4 to be downgraded. System wars never change, I suppose.

Kutaragi re-hired.

I can see it now. Cerny comes on stage and starts to kinda power up DBZ style and then he bursts to pieces and standing in his place is Kutaragi! With the real PS4 running on CELL WITH 32 cores!!!!

CROWD GOES WILD!!!

Some make a gif of this!
 
Maybe they're allowing less RAM to be used for games and setting aside an extra gb for the OS or something? Or a downclock?

Guess we'll have to wait and find out. If it was anything major, we'd know what it is by now.
 
If you take the word drama and remove the d and the a, you have RAM. Then take the d and a and put it next to PS4

PS4 ad(d) RAM

So where did that other "d" come from? Ok, I haven't figured that part out yet.
 
RAM production unable to ramp up due to material shortage, switching to different supply chain to ensure on time delivery of 1mm units at launch.

Nothing I despise more than a games 'journo' playing on info spill it or shut it.

Can't really see what Sony can mess up now anyway? Everything has been played well.
