In reply to Psionicinversion. What that link shows is something we all knew.. PC needs more hardware than consoles to play games.

What a silly question asking .. “whether developers will start running out of memory once again as games get complex” .. Look at gaming in general and compare RAM and the different versions of it.

The fact is developers use all the RAM now without using it wisely ( like most devs do at the beginning of console life ) but as time goes by the developers utilize the RAM more and more and no longer take what they was given as granted to squeeze out what they can for gaming needs.

Example PS3 console = 512MB total RAM, but STILL has new games made for it that are also on consoles that have 8GB total RAM as well as the games being on PCs that have 2/4/6/8/12/16/32GB RAM. You just have to cut back on things so the hardware can cope ( including RAM / GPUs / CPUs ) ect.

In reply to bob. Well, 256mb of video memory. About the same used by developers for the 360, too. Give or take. Depends too much upon the game. You still have system memory you are using for the game, too.
