Why wouldn't Sony comment on the size of allocated memory?
Seems sketchy.
Sony almost never comments on the OS sizes for their consoles. I dont really think they will respond, but some dev may loose some words.

I don't get what you can do 7GB VRAM on a lower mid GPU for 1080p gaming? So what's being wasted here really?It's such a waste that so much RAM is being used up by the OS in both consoles. I really don't get it.
End what? Nothing has happened other than GAF flipping a huge one.
Well I would call him junior GAF, but a) I'm a junior and b), I don't like lumping people together based simply on the date at which they signed up for something.Don't associated that ill logic with GAF primjr GAF will do just fine
C) Bish will make you a junior again.
So if this 4.5 malarkey is true, does that mean Sony lied? I certainly think it would paint them as disingenuous.

How about "crooked spin, you so crazy."
Good gawd. These RAM threads are so sad. But so much fun!Because it would destroy the image of the gamer's console they've built up since E3.
Let me.ask a serious question...how come as soon as Sony releases a statement regarding this article...all of a sudden DF's sources miraculously have slightly different information that aligns more with what Sony is saying?
We really should just wait and see how multiplats will turn out on both systems this fall.

If it were good, they'd be shouting it on every rooftop.
It's best to keep it hidden as long as possible. It might earn them a few extra thousands preorders.
Yes, and it's important you warn gamers in other forums.
I think we will have a Gamescom megaton announcement. Imagine Cerny's on stage and he confirms that 7gb of RAM is available for devs
you're not subtle at all dude
No. Save your money.
I'm calling BS. Why would a console OS use more than a PC OS?

Please tell me this is CG work??????????
Every 4-5
You dont need a new GPU just to play games always at max 120 fps
Turning shadows to medium and shit helps and still looks overall better with the lowest settings on a console
This is only bad news if you are a console warrior (one fewer talking point). Non-partisan gamers around the world, however, can be heard collectively saying, "Meh."
Yes, we talked privately already. Take from that what you will.

Wheat Free, Dairy Free, Gluten Free?
Nope.
Meh, hoped for some numbers. Sony loves bragging about them, but now silence? Meh again.
I blame PC fanatics for this getting so much hype, who cares about ram? On consoles?
UPDATE:
welp...
This is wrong, that not how VRAM works.
VRAM Is allocated automatically depending on the GPU VRAM. A 660 will report almost 2GB of VRAM usage in the MSI afterburner at ultra settings, but a sli'd 2GB 560 Ti will still be able to run BF3 at ultra and outperform the 660 despit having only 1GB of VRAM.
3GB is enough for Crysis 3 even at 1600p and 8xMSAA btw:
This whole deal of Sony playing coy reminds me of the whole E3 DRM controversy. They could easily be waiting to make the most impact with their announcement. I mean, even MS wanted to sit on their good indie support news, until Gamescom. Doesn't seem out of the question that both companies are withholding more than just games to announce.

My theory (not an insider, mind you):
Remember how everyone thought Sony was gonna follow Microsoft down the DRM and always online rabbit hole? And how the silence coming from Sony's camp was almost deafening? It seemed to confirm all our worst fears.
Then E3 came. And they blew our fucking faces off.
I'm guessing the reason they're not giving details is because they're going to address it at Gamescom, either onstage or shortly thereafter in interviews. And they'll say either there's more than just 4.5-5.5GB for devs, or they'll say they've upped the total system RAM (highly unlikely, I know).
