I am not surprised. It's basically a mid range PC as it stands (maybe even a decent one, but definitely mid/low-mid by the time it comes out). I am even willing to bet that it has so much RAM in the first place is so it can run the OS and the other random crap in the background.... like a PC. Honestly, given the architecture, any reason why a game is on a PS4 and not a PC is publisher politics and nothing else.
Which explains Carmack, he knows how to do PC very well.
Edit: I just realized that making an emulator for this will be supr easy. Maybe just so much as a recompile and very few tweaks and done. This is super exciting.
