re: CVG sources say PS4 reveal in matter of weeks

The PS4's RAM bandwidth is rumoured to be 192 GB/s, whilst the 720's 64 GB/s. Remember, a lot of this is just speculation, but it does point to a split down the middle that could ultimately prove tricky for developers. 8 GB will be much better for open worlds, but the faster RAM better for effects in more constrained environments.

Sounds like niether will be all around gaming platforms but yes Xbox is going to an all in one enertainment option. Been this way for a few years now. It's no secret and truly it may be what helps them turn a profit faster. They make a billion dollars a year off of Xbox live transactions like movie rentals and people buying avatar props. It would be dumb financially for them not to keep moving towards that.

I don't think Sony has that option because their PSN is not as user friendly. They are smart to go back to the basics. They need to keep it simple anyway since they are on the verge of bankruptcy as it is. Can't take too many risk.
