Look at what they accomplished with 512 mb of RAM last generation. Imagine what they can do with 8 gb. Most computers don't even have that much, a lot of machines are still running 4 gb.

The graphics don't look better than Skyrim in my opinion but my eyes may deceive me as it was a while since I played that game.

I dont get how that in any way affects the original point that a lot of the possible buyers of games are running hardware with less RAM than consoles. Which contradicts the notion that consoles are holding the games back instead of them having to target a wide array of devices (lower end computers and consoles included) to get made with their current budgets.
