He confims lol

"How Sony did with their system I can't talk... but how we balanced we system (reply to 5GB + 3GB)..."

He just explained how the 5GB + 3GB works.

But that is going off topic lol

Kind of lke how sony never comfirmed how much ram was being used.

@Ethomaz - he also said " Im not close enough to really understand how there system works". I doubt he knew about ram allotment.

@Figgycal
My point exactly. If MS hasn't confirmed nor denied yet it is accepted as fact then Sony saying no comment must be accepted as fact.

grasping at straws tuscaniman99?

@ethomaz
Get over it. Sony decided to comment on the intricacies of how the Ram works yet said no comment about the split. Basically they are admitting. You can live in denial but as of right now these numbers are the truth.

@gooch_destroyer
Yep I'm grasping at straws. Sony has a magic OS that runs on 1gb of ram but also offers multitasking, instant switching, etc just like the Xbox One OS. They are the best hardware and software company of all time and Microsoft should just leave the console business right now. PS4 will sell 500 million units and it is the best console ever imagined. Better?

But silence isn't always comfirmation. We've seen that time and time again; you just gave a good example of a case where that happened. Not saying that using 3.5 gb of ram would be the worst thing in the world, but even the 7gb number that was thrown around was just a rumor. People shouldn't get too attached to "anonymous sources say". I think the OS will be over 1, but 3.5 is too much, but even then it can be reduced. We'll see the same with the Xone ram.

Can't the Vita do multitasking and instant switching already?  That couldn't use much more than a gb of ram.  

@Torillian
My phone can do it as well. I'm sure it has to do with the level of assets that the console is dealing with.

Yes it can. But for some apps you have to quit the game to use it.
