PS3 will do graphics better then Crisis, but that will take years to do.

You do realise that by the time the PS3 manages better graphics than Crysis (which you yourself admit will take years to accomplish), the PC has already moved well past Crysis-level hardware.

In other words, in several years time the PC will be creating games that obliterates anything Crysis is able to pull off today. Graphics, textures, physics, AI, sound - everything will be vastly improved.

Where does that leave the PS3, when its hardware five or 10 years down the line is EXACTLY the same as it is now? It's not going to gain a gram of extra processing power. The PC, on the other hand, you can expect a doubling of performance every 18 months for the same money you are spending today.

That's right.

The last thing to keep in mind is that it may not necessarily be "by the time", but rather "if the PS3 can" surpass Crysis at all.

Even if the PS3 could do visuals to Crysis levels today (which it can't - at least, it hasn't been seen yet), it won't be able to keep up. And before you say that UT3 is running at 60 fps, keep in mind PC gamers are used to running UT at well over 150fps (UT2K4 runs around 240fps on my PC at 720p).

Anyhow, follow this link to see what I mean.
