I'm still wondering what the article will actually be about though and why Sony want to comment on it.

If you made your posts about the info and left it at that, Id be inclined to feel some shread of truth behind them, but the more you chase up people who dont buy what youre saying, the more it comes across that your purpose of posting the information was for the e-fame, if what you post is true and you know it to be so, you would have no reason to chase those that didnt believe what you were saying.

Just saying.

You shouldn't reframe the turn of the events. Like always, i browse the board, and i fall upon someone saying that i had an agenda by reporting that my sources weren't as enchanted by the PS4 situation back in the day as the majority of the Internet was proclaiming. So i'm just defending the legitimacy of my sources and explain why i believe in them as they were right before. For your first point, well, the posts and edits date are for all to see so yes, the data is "left it at that".

Now, if we could go back to interesting subjects, it would be cool :)

So, I ain't readin' 2000 posts, especially if this thread went the way I think it did...

Is this an apt summary of this thread?

- Nebulous tweet from some duder who thinks there might be "bad news" on the horizon for Sony.
- Thread gets posted.
- Anti-Sony fanboys come flocking in full of glee and smiles.
- News turns out to not be a reduction of RAM.
- Anti-Sony fanboys scamper back off into the woods, editing posts left and right
- PS4 is architecturally the same as we thought it was last week


Am I in the ballpark?

Healthy skepticism is a wonderful trait that I intend to hold on to, Im not reframing any events, I simply pointed out that you chase up those that dont buy into your words (including me), Truth needs no defence, youve no reason to defend your sources as you yourself have pointed out, barring the username both you and the source are anonymous, therefor you have nobody to really defend.

I understand your point and in my very first post on GAF, i encouraged people to take the second-hand info i will give with a grain of salt. But there is a difference between doubting, expressed in a polite manner, (and to which i generally don't react) and harsh comments like "your sources are your ass" that i can't let pass, hence why my intervention.

It's gonna be a translation/rehash of the RAM architecture, nothing else. It's pretty obvious from the first couple of tweets that guy made.

Forget what he said or didn't say about 'drama' I want to know why it was said Sony was preparing a statement to go with this. Probably wrong as well but I thought that implied more.

There was never any "statement"*. I'm betting they got confused over the RAM architecture, thought it was a downgrade (ie, the "difference isn't as big as it used to be" tweet), contacted Sony for clarification. That's that.


* In a later tweet he suggested that. Not a statement as such, more like a confirmation/rebuttal sort of thing.

Thanks for the info. Greatly appreciated. Thought there might have been some new info regardless of the misstep, but I guess that's not the case at all.

If it's just a translation, wouldn't they know it is no big deal from the start? The info is out and it didn't cause a meltdown.

Same. That post me me scratch my head.

So, do we all know why (roughly) the people on GAF who are waiting at the chance to bash the PS4? I honestly don't care if they (Sony) deserves it, but from the posts I've read, some people are grasping at anything to make sure the PS4 gets a negative something.

I know the Xbox One has been getting ragged on a lot, but they did inflict it upon themselves.

Summary of the happenings should be in the OP just to stop all the "What happened" posts. :D

People pick their team on here, it goes beyond who provides a good games console.
