Just to correct here, the ps3 has 256mb for video and 256mb for the system. Wich is the same as saying 256mb for games and 256mb for the operative system. 

Wow no no no no. Icstats was correct. The PS3 only uses about 50MB for the OS.

Your computer is the same way. You have maybe 8GB of system ram, but your OS is only taking a small chunk of that.

Are you sure any of that remaining RAM is used for games?

But then again you are contradcting yourself there. He said the PS3 has 512MB of RAM for games (not specifically but thats what he tried to say). We know that at least 50MB arent.

edit: alright i investigated the issue a bit more. The OS used to be 120MB but was later reduced to 52MB to free extra memory for developers. So, i guess games on the PS3 use 460MB. Thats the true available RAM for games... unless anymore is reserved for any other purposes.
