Just because the difference between the 360's and PS3's capabilities is not monumental doesn't mean that the term "future proof" is "crap". I believe the 360 too was loaded with tech for its day and designed to last longer than the typical console life cycle. What Sony did better was its blu-ray capabilities giving it several times more storage space than the DVDs that 360 uses; something that any developer will welcome. Blu-ray movies and TV shows are becoming increasingly popular as players can now be found for less than $100. Microsoft tried to combat Sony's blu-ray so much that it actually supported an HD DVD player. Sony has forseen this as an eventual selling point advantage for PS3, along with more and more people buying 1080p TVs, and udating their players via ethernet ports. No it will not grow an extra 512MB of RAM or find a sudden magical boost of power, but its blu-ray, ethernet port, and the cell and graphics chips they went with (which are capable of outperforming 360 when the time is taken, agreed it usually isn't) make it viable a bit longer than the 360.
But this is just tech I'm talking about; I'm the first to point out that the most powerful console has NEVER won it's generation historically.
