| BinaryDelt said: I haven't seen any of the IGNs or JoyStiqs of the world report this yet, so I until I see something a bit more official I'll remain skeptical. That being said, remembering that the PS3 only had 512 MB and more and more was freed up for games over time, I don't think this is a big deal. Games have up to 5.5 GB available to them on launch day. Over time in the generation, both the games and OS will be updated to be more efficient. |
For gamers, its really no big deal. Games will still look awesome on the PS4. For developers, if they need more than 5.5 or 4.5 GB, they will need to optimize their games more which is what they do.
Now for the fanboy, Oh, this is murder. You only have to be on a few threads when the fanboys start load their fanboy gun and shoot specs at the console they did not choose. Now instead of going into PS4 vs X1 fight, and the PS4 fanboy having an Sherman Tank and the X1 fanboy having a Glock, things have changed. The PS4 fanboy is reduced to using a desert Eagle while the X1 Fanboy still has his glock. Both will kill but the Desert Eagle has more power.
