That extra 10MB of RAM is in the GPU and it is additional RAM on top of the already available RAM. It is an advantage it will always have over the PS3, regardless of software updates. As for the PS3 OS catching the 360 one in terms of usage, I don't think it will happen soon. Microsoft's strong suit is software and OS's, and they had a years headstart. |
Vista and Vista SP1 says hi
anyways, your right, had to look it up. 10Mbs of ram still doesn't give any major increase in capabilities. If it was 128mbs I'd say yes the 360 has a definitive advantage but 10mbs can only increase loading speeds in same games or allow more cover-up on graphical errors. OS vs OS the dashboard probably is a heavier OS then the XMB due to the animations and the way its probably coded. I can only guess, but i can't see it being a very clean code due to the pountless number of menus you can access in-game.
Still don't count out any company's software programmers. There is a reason why FREE OSs like Fedora kicks the crap out of Windows. As long as Sony hired good programmers they can catch up to Microsoft's console OS's quality, features, and usage quite fast even without much trouble.
The PSN is already a more stable gaming network. The new PS store is nicer then the 360's. The XMB is a cleaner OS then the Dashboard. It's just missing features but if you ever paid attention in some firmware updates the improved XMB features, added some, and increased functionality.
Also don't mention Anna either. The PS3 has a scaler chip too.
