@NeverEnding1989:
The PS3 wasn't really anymore handicapped in regards to Ram than the 360 was, it was just more difficult to code for because of the way it was arranged.
With most games being made for the 360s unified Ram first then ported to the PS3, it was usually too much cost and effort to properly code the game for the PS3s split Ram.
The 360 really only has 18MB more usable Ram than the PS3.
The PS3 uses 50MB total...
Very good reason indeed.
Could try out a modmic though.

Currently using my Sen HD598s. No headset comes close.
One of the problems with the 360 providing a free headset with every system was all the snot nose little kids screaming profanities and racial slurs at everyone.
Looks like the PS4 will be the same.
I'd prefer if they didn't include it, basic headsets are dirt cheap anyways and i would be willing to pay the extra to not have to deal with as many brat kids.
@fr0sty:
Actually 16x increase is the norm.
PS1: 2MB
PS2: 32MB
PS3: 512MB
PS4: 8GB
No manual stat dist
overly complex/confusing FF10-esque skill system
Guild wars style closed zones, no ability to play with others outside of town without being in a party with them.
The worst merchant system/economy of any MMO ever made, no real currency, trading everything for useless junk and id scrolls that take up invin space.
Decent combat system but with all the flaws
Thanks but no thanks
ROFL thats the funniest thing ever.
15 years ago a $5k gaming PC came with 32MB of Ram, a 4MB video card and a 200mhz CPU.
15 years from now, cell phones will be 10x as powerful as the PS4.
The PS5 if there is another console gen, won't be more than 7 years away. And even by then it will be comparable to a rock bottom off the shelf PC.
Most of the dev team from D2 is working for Runic now, Blizzard is only Blizzard by name at this point.
And being owned by Acticrap doesn't help.
+1. It has its share of problems, open servers being the main one.
But once you download a few basic mods (DirectX post-processing & DarkUI) to get rid of some of the color. Its a much better game overall than D3.
TL2 on PS3/PS4 with closed servers would be great.
Agreed and i'm an 8 year vet of D2.
D3 is more like World of Diablo, they hacked and chopped away everything that made D2 great and replaced it with this typing for toddlers WoW inspired garbage.
Then to add insult to injury they added that dreaded RMAH, turning it into a hive for gold farmers and people who have no interest in gaming, only playing it to make easy money.
RMAH

@TheRealSpy:
Agreed, It looks good but not great. Certainly nothing that PC's haven't already been doing for a few years.
However you have to remember this is a launch title and also still in alpha stage, with the PS4 still probably atleast 8 months from release it has lots of time to get better.
1 problem i did notice however and i'm hoping it was just badly recorded, There was a massive amount of distortion in the audio once the...
Yes, Accoding to the article the Vram is GDDR5.
It doesn't say what type of system Ram they are using, only saying its "High-Capacity".
That could be GDDR5 also but more likely it will be high speed DDR3, probably 1600mhz+
8GB of GDDR5 would be very expensive for a console.
"highly-enhanced PC GPU using GDDR5 memory"
"The PS4 is being equipped with 8GB of high-capacity memory"...
@davekaos:
The 24GB VRam was a general comparison. 6GBx4 = 24GB, i didn't know SLI didn't stack VRam.
I did not say the 690 was a single card, you need to learn reading comprehension.
I said the Geforce Titan was a single card, and it is.
Btw i never disagreed with you, i accepted i made a mistake. Why the sudden need to get rude?
@davekaos:
Oh balls.
I never knew that as i have never used SLI before.
That sucks though.
Just find another 460 on Ebay, you can prob find one for under $100 and you will be able to easily max anything currently out.
My 470 still maxes everything no problem, the 310.90 Geforce driver update a couple days ago actually gave me another 5fps average on FC3.
Now running it completely maxed out with 32x forced AA
8x supersampling and 16x AF at 50fps average
@TemplarDante:
Wow i have heard some distorted console fanboy bullcrap over the years but that is a new high point.
I have no idea where you got that information from, maybe you made it up yourself. Regardless its a load.
PC hardware is able to use 100% of its efficiency, it is just a matter of developers being willing to spend the time and resources to do it. Same with anything, consoles included.
The PC version of Crysis 1 ...
Nvidia Geforce GTX690: 5.62TFlops
And that is just 1 card.
The Geforce Titan is coming out soon also which is 90% the power of the 690 on a single GPU PCB, which means you can combine 4 of them in SLI.
(5.62 - 10%) x 4 = 20.2TFlops
2GB of rumored VRam on the PS4
24GB total on 4 Geforce Titans
8GB of system ram on PS4
64GB of ram on a top end PC
The CPU is alot harder to compar...
The best way to stop piracy is to stop trying to stop piracy.
The pirates will always win, and the legit buyers are the only ones that ever suffer from DRM.
Several companies have already learned this and they are better off for it.
1: Release games completely DRM free, or through Steam with nothing else.
2: Provide physical incentives for purchasers that cannot be obtained through piracy.
3: provide demos or...
Those are the SS-NA2ES's in the picture not the SS-AR2's. Still $10k per pair though.
Only a little over 13x the cost of my fronts lol.
PC games may loose developer support alot sooner than console games but it has the mod community to make up for it.
See something in a PC game you don't like or just want to be better/different? fix it. No need to wait on the developers to release a patch 6 months later. want more content? add it. No paying extra for DLC.
