What I don't understand is why if the PS3 is so much more powerful, we haven't seen any evidence of it. Yeah it's got some great looking exclusives but nothing that really trounces say Gears 2 or even multi plat games like Resi 5. And the upcoming Lost Planet 2 looks gorgeous. If the PS3 is so much more powerful, than the 'technically inferior' 360 is really giving it a real good run for it's money. I don't ever remember a console war were the power of the consoles was up for so much (legit) debate. Used to be so clear in the past. SNES>Mega Drive. N64>PSOne. Xbox>PS2.

Cost.  That's the answer.  Pretty critical issue that's not going to go away any time soon, for most publishers/devs.  It will eventually get better though, because parallelism will work its way into the mainstream programmer's brain, eventually.
