S-sony new console extravaganza

[Kalahari Inkantation]

so from what I can find the graphics hardware is about on par with something you could get for a pc in 2008

this is what i feared

junk gpu and cpu to compensate for the ram price which totally defeats the purpose of having all that ram in the first place

In addition, DUALSHOCK®4 will come with a built-in speaker and stereo headset jack, enabling PS4 users to enjoy high-fidelity sound effects of games from both the TV and also from the controller.

unbelievable lol

well that was pretty high-end graphics hardware in 2008, plus the graphics on consoles get optimized a ton compared to what they can do on a PC. I think the 360's graphics hardware is something like you'd find in a PC in 2003 or something along those lines.
Plus the RAM this time isn't being used just for the games. It'll be really helpful when streaming games, demos, sharing gameplay videos, keeping the system on standby mode, and just overall running a more fluid and integrated UI where you can jump between different things quickly.

2003 was just two years before the 360, 2008 was five years ago
