Gamescon just around the corner. Here is a little tease:

Highlights include Microsoft announcing Open Development for Indie Game Makers (meh) and a possible official release day.

Sony is also expected to at least give a tighter window of release than "Sometime in 2013".

We can also expect both to give more release day titles and possibly a few more of the exclusive 15 titles Microsoft promised for the first years release.

Reference here: Gamescon August 20 2013

I updated the first post to include new specs as well. Looks like Sony announced an official OS RAM usage number it is way more than 1G which if you remember I said was way to low even at DDR5 speeds. Looks like 3.5G for OS which actually leaves it .5G under Microsoft for developers. I think with Microsofts use of eSRAM it may be a little ahead of the PS4 now as far as RAM goes.
