GameAnalyser said: I'm surprised by how developers are insisting on higher RAMs. Consoles are not designed to do multitasking like their PC counterparts, which makes 8 GB RAM's advantage least utilized on consoles. Instead a 4GB RAM(console's exclusive with higher bus frequency) would suffice more than enough for next gen gaming. Crytek better not be eulogizing higher memory requirements to utmost proportions, instead a little bit about what CPU/GPU next gen consoles use. |
Well they better start being designed to multitask. Smartphones multitask now. People don't want a single use box anymore. The in-game XMB is one of the slowest, most frustrating software experiences I've ever put up with. You should be able to message somebody quickly while in a game, and a GREAT feature would be to leave the game running while going back to the main OS, kind of like hitting Alt-Tab while in a PC game. That would allow you to open the browser without having to reload the game.
