PS - I think Bioshock also looks a lot better than Stranglehold, visually and gameplay wise.  But thats a different thread. 


Minimum system requirements for a PC game is what's needed just to get the game to run.  Usually you're forced to turn everything down in most games to the point where the PS3 and 360 versions look the same or even better.  For example try running Oblivion with those minumum requirements, I can guarantee  it won't look as good as the two console versions unless a decent framerate doesn't matter to a person.
