Did Sony at any point say how much RAM the OS will use? As a Nintendo fan I'm a bit worried this will be a problem for multiplats :/

they didnt, but i dont think it would be over 2 GBs. that would leave 6GB for games, not only is that 6 times more than what the WiiU has, but its also much faster. 

It could be over 2GB easily, depending on how they are using it for the share options, it is storing the last 15 minutes of game (could be less in the end), whenever you are playing so you can share those videos, I don't think it will send them to the hard drive on real time so a good part of the RAM will handle that feature.

But I think 2GBs reserved for OS is a good stimate, which will leave 6GB for games

its just an estimate, plus the RAM is fast, so it would handle storing the gameplay well. i guess we will have to wait and see
