The only games on PC (which have far better textures and larger maps than anything on consoles) that use more than 2 GB are games like Skyrim that have been HEAVILY modified and run at resolutions greater than 1080p. Since console games run at ~1080p or less 2 GB for video memory should be more than enough. That leaves 4 GB for the code which should be more than sufficient since on my PC even running the OS I never need more than 4 GB total. There is NO reason why the amount of ram would be a bottleneck. The cards on the consoles are far too weak to push anything higher than 1080p (if that much even) and lack the grunt needed to utilize anything more than 2 GB or so. |
640K Ought to be Enough for Anyone
