So that means that KZ only had 0.5GB in Feb. Damn. Oh wait sorry, it's Richard. Story is most likely bullshit.

RIF.

When the PS4 only had 4GB, apparently the OS only used 512MB of RAM.  That would have given a game 3.5GB to play in.

So you're saying that Sony added extra costs onto the console only to give developers an extra gig. 2 if the stars align. It may be true. But honestly it makes no sense. The xbone uses only 3 gigs for 3 OS's. And an indy game is already using 5GB. The whole thing just stinks of FUD.

 

Even if it's true it won't affect me since I will only play exclusives on it. PC for everything else but the article just seems crap. Similar to the 7 minute DVR feature.

EDIT: On second thought. If it's true, it really pisses me off if this is true. The console costs extra just so Sony can add crap to the OS. Go back to 4GB and drop the price please. And remove bloat from the OS.
