    Sports gamers are fucked cause the PS4 is only gonna have 4GB RAM. RAM is key for sports titles and those memory restraints they bitch about. Since the games are required to be equal in their offerings, 720 owners are essentially handicapped by the PS4 in that regard.

      Has Sony confirmed the PS4 to 4GB of RAM? No.

      Rumors are rumors - wait until they both (MS/Sony) make their official announcements to make a statement like that.

        You've come off overly defensive about it.

          I thought the whole point of these next gen threads was to speculate since nothing's been announced and its all basically just rumors at this point?

              Didn't mean to.

              Just pointing out that we aren't "fucked" until we see/hear the official specs of the consoles.

                  Rumour: Durango to be called "Xbox", MS to make X-Surface portable gaming system

                  The Xbox 720 will not be called that when it is finally announced. Instead, Microsoft will be reverting to the name of its first games console released 11 years ago, Xbox.

                  In addition, it will be seen as a hub to a number of devices to carry an "X" branding, one of which will be the much-rumoured 7-inch gaming tablet, which Pocket-lint has learnt will be called X-Surface, not Xbox Surface as previously thought.

                  The X-Surface will not be a Windows 8 or Windows RT device, we have been told by a tipster very close to the project who, naturally, wishes to remain anonymous. Instead, it will be a standalone portable gaming system. On launch, we are informed, it will be able to access the games, music and video hubs of the new Xbox, but will not have any apps of its own. It will not have a desktop as part of its operating system, rather be entirely focused on playing full console-quality games.

                  Although there are no technical specifications touted, we have also been told that the X-Surface tablet has much improved hardware over a Surface RT. With the source claiming that he/she "witnessed Unreal Engine 3 demos running at a solid 60fps".

                  There are also unconfirmed rumours that the X-Surface will have a proprietary 2.4GHz wireless protocol for compatibility with Xbox 360 controllers and, it is said, future control devices.
                  One incorrect former rumour about the new Xbox that has been quashed by the tipster is that one of the cores will be dedicated to running the operating system. The OS will have a similar look to Windows 8, with moveable tiles, but won't be literally using that software. It will also require two-cores to run, as it will remain active in the background in order to provide full multitasking functionality. "Very much akin to Nintendo's offerings on 3DS and Wii U - but on a far larger scale," explained the source.

                  A couple of the features of multitasking explained to us include video calling in games (with users able to determine which corner of the screen to place the feed), and the ability to take screengrabs to save to hard drive or SkyDrive.

                  Mock design.....

                    That "mock design" was from a Kotaku member, just so everyone knows.

                    So they are just going to call it Xbox, eh? At least they didn't pull a dumbass Apple move and call it The New Xbox.

                      Would still be a better name than Xbox 720.

                        That's not saying much. They weren't very forward thinking when they named this console the 360. That was their dumb mistake.

                              Yeah, it's a great name. Except for all the confusion it will cause with the average consumer walking into a retailer asking for an Xbox. Do they want the cheaper 360 or the new one?

                              It's not much different than the Wii and the WiiU. Apparently confusing consumers is the new marketing trend.
