Yes, we know the PS3 has less memory. We've known this for a long time.

Now, Bad Company and Killzone 2 have destruction on the PS3, right? Did they have any problems?

 

NO IT DOESN'T...FFS

"

Just so you know that the PS3 has 512MB of RAM (256 for video and 256 for system). The Cell chip has 256MB of completely sharable RAM, the GPU has 256MB of dedicated RAM. Now the key here is what type of RAM it is.

The Playstation 3 has 256mb of GDDR3 at 700mhz  and 256Mb of XDR at 3.2ghz. So what exactly is XDR ram? Here are some of the highlights:

  • XDR makes PS3 super effiecient
  • XDR aids in faster cache mapping, both direct and indirect
  • XDR ram works by a pointer to pointer technology and needs very small buswidth for execution
  • XDR is not just faster than GDDR3 but it is much more efficient
  • XDR RAM works by breaking down data into several packets which prevents data loss and exceptions"

So what you're saying is that the people who make Red Faction are basically useless.

That's a possibility, right? If Guerilla can do it, why can't Volition?

And I said the PS3 has less RAM, not worse RAM.
