I find it a little hard to believe they didn't know about the next gen consoles back in 2012.

they wouldn't be clueless but there would still be a lot of unknown details.  it's been pretty much accepted that sony surprised everyone (GG games included) when they announced 8Gb of ram. 

Well, that would only mean that they expected at least for this part weaker hardware as they really got which makes his statement even worse.
