Wait, those 1.5 GB are what devs have been using (for the demos shows at the conference) or those are the final numbers that games will be able to use?

1.5GB is what the devs have been using. In other words, every single thing we saw at the Feb. 20th conference was created using only 1.5GB of RAM. What we're going to see from now on is going to be unimaginable!

Oh ok that makes sense.

Rumor Killzone SF was using 128mb ram.

It was actually running on a Gamecube at the 2/20 conference. My sources confirm.

Sounds fishy.

fishy? the Gamecube GPU is called "Flipper" like the dolphin

it all makes sense now

If the games shown were really created on such early devkits, it wouldn't surprise me if the games at the xbox conference look better (going by rumours, their devkits have not changed recently in power regards). That will be fun to watch.

So if true, and those demos were created using gimped tools (1.5G), does it mean the final game wil have "sub par" graphics or can they still use the improved dev kits??? (Sorry, not very knowlegable in the tech field)
