Not sure why some people assume that 4GB is enough, when we have lot of AAA developers asking for 8GB - and that's what they obviously consider to be minimum required if next-gen is to last as long as this one. Honestly, I don't think something like Halo4 would be possible if MS haven't increased memory to 512MB from originally planned 256MB, so even if they've planned for 4GB I'd bet they will listen to developers again on this one.
As for PC games not requiring 8GB - FarCry3 min requirements are 4GB, high-performance are 8GB - I expect to see lot of games with these sort of requirements in near future. |
Really? If I open the task manager while playing 4-5GB is the max, no game I've ever played needed 8GB of RAM

It's just my opinion, but that is how your task manager looks like today. Throw 8gb into a console and that resets/lifts the baseline for PC. A few years from now 8gb will be standard, 12-16 recommended for top end PC. I sure would love to see what games look and play like with those requirements.

I doubt they would look much better than some of todays games with mods, so I hope most improvements will be made in the area of phsyics, level design and AI.
