128mb of RAM for red hot gaming!

[Kristafon]

Have any of the other UK members seen this advert on the TV. It was advertising a computer. I cant remember exactly wat the specs where (though the video card wasnt even mentioned) but it showed a pic of two kids playing what i think Prince of Persia 2 and the guy said "128mb of RAM for RED HOT gaming!"
The min RAM requirement for that game is 256mb! Wtf are they thinking?

Maybe video RAM? People always want to make there product sound best even if it isnt, but 128MB memory ram is nothing!

:cheers: Exactly, he said RED HOT GAMING- meaning you're ****ing gonna be pissed at the performance that you're going to turn red and be hot, all that while gaming. Sheesh you people need to learn how to comprehend.

However wouldnt they want a bigger number? Why didnt they use the system RAM?
