One thing I disagree with, is that PC's will have new technology the consoles won't be able to compete with. What is he talking about, better graphics, physics etc.? Does he not realize that these things are already "good enough" for the vast majority of consumers.

You don't understand - The big problem of PC gaming is that the requirements of games are ever increasing, leaving out many PC gamers that didn't buy/upgrade their PCs, especially at the start of every console generation because many developers try to push graphics on consoles hard and give unoptimized versions to PC gamers.

However, as the time progresses it's becoming different because technology is getting so much cheaper and PCs can last much longer, even longer than consoles. If this generation drags for a few more years, less developers will push the envelope on PCs and more people will keep updating their PCs that will last not only this generation but also the next gen of consoles.

That is why the best years for consoles are at the start of every gen, when people rush to buy them, while after 3 years or so it's PC land because then consoles' sales increase modestly.
