I'm pretty astounded that so many people actually believe in this.
PS4 has its hardware. It won't change. So a few tweaks can improve performances, that's true. But an "astounding" improvement ? Come on...


ICE programmer have make direct comments before on what I think was Tilled Textures that got like 100x better, but he never linked that to end results.

How would they do that?

inFAMOUS Second Son was limited to using just 4.5GB of the 8GB memory the system has. The launch spec for long time was going to be 6GB total instead of 8GB. With the OS really needing/using 1.5GB, I think there is 2GB of that fast video memory that is untapped.

Or thats the best I could grasp at and the article/claims are total crap...


The reports we have is that Sony had PS4 with 4Gb of GDDR5 and 0,5Gb were for OS and 3,5Gb for games... when they put it at 8Gb we got 1 Gb for games and 3Gb for OS... but we will probably have more free for games along the way.

Maybe they are allowing people devs to disable the odd during gameplay like last gen. So you won't be able to just jump from the OS to the game but games will have a lot more ram to use.

Every dev that wont let people go to the Playstation Menu during gameplay will get a lot of hate, and Sony also will. No way Sony will ever allow that.


I don't see why they would recieve a lot of hate. I'm not saying that going to the OS doesn't ever come in handy but it's hardly something I need.

A lot of people constantly go to the OS during gameplay, I can't remember the last time I didn't.



And that's the thing about this guy. "Game over for Xbox One!!!!". Seriously, he can never say anything without adding his own fanboyic twist to it. What kind of insider is this?

Well I'm not really sure how you would guage how many people are going to the OS during gameplay. It's not something they are used to either way as it just started this gen and was not something we could do last gen.  May I ask what you do by going to the OS all the time? I really have no reason to go back to the OS during a game.

Just making sure: with OS, you mean the menu's, right? You could do that on PS3 and Xbox 360

I'm constantly sending messages, checking what others are playing and checking time between gameplay.

I mean straight to the os screen. Like the screen you would see when you first turn on the PS4. Could you do that in the PS3 and 360? Maybe I'm just forgetting.
