Because it's "been there, done that" ? it's called PlayStation 2 and still exists. And you don't have to strip a supercomputer to lower it PS360 level, just take any Core Duo processor of your taste and a not so powerful graphics card, let's say a little above of what the 360 has inside. You won't be able to run , not only Crysis, that would be a joke the way you'd have to play it, you wouldn't be able to run the same games available for those HD consoles like Gears of War, Devil May Cry 4, Prince of Persia, etc, not as well as PS360 can do it. It's a well-known fact.

 

And HD consoles are been there done that to PC's who have been outputting to HD for a long time. But the Wii isn't the PS2 unless the PS2 had a motion controller that was supported by a significant number of games (whether somebody likes the Wiimote or not is irrelevant as to whether it is different to the DS2).

As for the aim of your experiment being to show that consoles are more efficient than Pc then yes, I agree, and it is indeed a well known fact and is due to the number of variations of PC hardware; power and flexibility come at a price. I did not understand the point of your experiment as it is totally off topic, you might have been a bit more explicit.

Any argument that goes against the Wii from the HD  fanboys can go agaisnt them from the PC fanboys.

QFT. All 3 represent different power/price/flexibility compromises and none of them are intrinsically right/wrong. They can only be right or wrong for a particular person (and apparently there are far more persons for whom the Wii is right than for HD consoles).

@arsenicazure: a test at 720p would be more in line as many if not most PS360 FPS currently out do not even do that. Here you would be comparing Crysis at 2 megapixels against consoles whose games can't even run at 0.92 megapixel (720p). Not really fair is it? If you think it doesn't matter then why not use a crysis test at 2560x1600  (4 megapixel) to compare its low framerate to those console games that can't even push 720p. You say: "KZ2 looks quite nice and is comparable to crysis" but it isn't unless it runs at a comparable resolution.
