True, did they limit RAM for any particular reason? I heard it was a fairly exotic type of RAM which was quite expensive. It really has backfired thoughas developers complain it's not worth putting better (and hence larger) textures on the bigger Blu-Ray discs (compared to the XBox360's DVD) if the PS3 can't copy enough of them into RAM at a given time! They shot themselves in the foot. Ghostbusters was much better on the 360 with awesome textures and the PS3 didn't match it! Let's hope 'Uncharted 2' raises the bar!
