I never understood that trade. I guess they really wanted to get rid of Lombardi's contract.

Pretty much.

At the time Lombardi was coming off a concussion and they weren't sure if he'd even play again or if he did not at a level deserving of the contract. So they didn't want to foot the bill so we took him with Franson as the piece we'd get for removing their financial burden.

Having a fucking damn fine cup of coffee this morning, first one in a while. Been on a tea kick for a long time but coffee is without a doubt superior. A little milk and no sugar is perfection.

Makes me miss smoking a bit though. A cup of coffee and a cigarette is one of those irreplaceable little joys in life.

Dave Nonis continues to do business through his cousin's twitter account.


I believe its cousin in law or 2nd/3rd cousin. Not immediate relation.

With regards to Franson what's the problem? He's an RFA. Let him sit out like PK did last season. Eventually he'll come crawling back. Leafs signed Paul Ranger they can let Franson stew a bit.

Its still early anyway. Got all of August. There are a lot of RFAs not signed yet.

reading after hours in the morning was my favourite breakfast activity :(

Me too, man. Sometimes I would be awake for it, and that was fun, but reading the whole thing at work in the morning with a coffee was just a perfect way to start the day.

That dolphin gif is amazing, but the Xbox one reveal gif was probably the best Sunhi gif there is.

So does this just mean that the PS4 and XBone are more similar in terms of hardware than people thought? The PS4 advantage was supposed to be RAM, but now they're essentially the same?

There's going to be a lot of crow to be had from either side.

I just don't think whoever is complaining about RAM on either console really knows what they are even getting so mad about.
But yea the crow eating will be fun too, hopefully theres an official statement today :p

Soc - PS4 still uses a different form of RAM that is supposed to be superior and a better GPU(?) imo it wont be that different from a 3rd party perspective. First party however you'll probably see the PS4 pull away ever so slightly.

So pretty much its this gen version 2.0 from my understanding.

Yea this one is probably the best IMO, also helps that Seven is one of my favourite movies, but it's just so perfect.

I don't understand what's happening, but please tell me whatever it is makes Amir0x look like an idiot?

No, it means both Sony and Microsoft have extra RAM reserved in case future features demand it and until developers actually require the use of all that RAM it won't make any difference in either console. PS4 still has faster RAM and a stronger GPU. The OS doesn't require 3 gigs on either console. It's a precaution.

This. Also OS footprint will shrink during the cylce, it is expected.

I wouldn't even mind, you can tell the ps3 OS doesn't have the resources necessary to function properly - trying to update the YouTube app ATM but keeps crashing the system lol
 
I love that the average gamer in the US/world doesn't know or give a shit about how much RAM a console has, yet here it is the source of heated discussions and debates

But the advantage is lessened with this news, yes?

If the rumors are true then yes. But only on the RAM side of the specs. PS4 supposedly has a better GPU and CPU (I haven't seen much discussion on the GPU and CPU, tbh)

According to the new rumors, the PS4 has "4.5 Gigs of RAM" available for games and the XOne has 5 Gigs.

It was believed that the PS4 had 7 Gigs of RAM reserved for games while the XOne just had 5.

But the PS4 still has the faster RAM with just slightly less available for devs. Also, I don't know what they mean by having 1 Gig flexible RAM...

All of this is beyond me though :)

Thats because youre a filthy casual dudebro gamer, playing your halo and nhl, bet you dont even know what thr cpu is clocked at! Fucking ruining gaming!
I used to be like this when I first started browsing Gaf as a lurker. Now I spend more time playing games on my iPad then my 360, I've become what I used to hate.
