It's true what you said though, MS wanted 360 to be dev-friendly and they succeeded in that.

No, high-end at the time of release to compensate for the intended lifespan. It's high-mid now, years later.

Killzone 2, let alone 3, is far above it.

God of War 3? It has better character models than Mass Effect 2, better textures than Gears 2, and far grander set pieces and bosses than either in scale.
lol

360's GPU is 3 generations behind and its CPU is some 2.5 generations behind today's stuff. Though what's high-end, mid, or low can be pretty arbitrary. If you compare the 360 to the general-purpose PCs you see at electronics stores, then the 360 still kind of keeps its head above water, but if you compare it to the bleeding-edge gaming PCs enthusiasts build, the 360 is nowhere even close to high-mid.

Keep in mind that computer hardware "generations" tend to last for about 6 months, if that. PCs are both the best and worst of tech progression, because you can always trade a module up for something better at nearly any time. The flip side being your brand new computer can be outdated in weeks if you don't pour money into upgrading it.

No console keeps up with the extreme high-end PCs for more than a few months, though. A year tops. The PS3 is also out-performed by most PCs, too stick out tongue That's simply how it works with consoles.

Yes, but if you get a beefy PC from the get-go, you will be set for a pretty long time. Unless you're one of those people who just have got to have the newest and the shiniest at all times. In that case, you better have a fat wallet. I usually get a new PC once every 2 years and I consider myself to be somewhat of an enthusiast. I go for the high-end, but not the bleeding-edge.

I'm not particulary interested in most of those. I want inFamous 2 and KH3, personally. LittleBigPlanet didn't cut it for me.

But yeah, that lineup will sell really well.

Yeah, Killzone blows, even by generic FPS standards.

If they're on the PS3 and not 360 though, his hatred for FPS automatically diminishes.
