The EDRAM [in the 360] is really just special purpose memory

Apart for those crucial facts the PS3 has more than 512 MB memory to deal with, there are for example also high speed local memory stores for each SPE, very neat indepent processors with which you can create lots of effects and other complex calculations.


6 SPEs with 256 KB each (meaning 1.5 MB in total), which are all the SPEs can directly access... Wait, what were you saying about special purpose memory? :P

Oh by the way, if we're going to nitpick don't forget to subtract the memory taken up by PS3's bloated OS (what are they at right now? still more than 20% of the total RAM?). 360's OS takes up 32 MB (or 6.25%) only.

But let's not let facts stand in the way of your love for PS3's technical aspects.
