I don't think that many people will turn to their PC for their hardcore gaming. For me, I play nearly all my games on PS3, and only use my PC for RTSs. This is because, in general, my computer cannot handle the best looking games, whereas my PS3 will be able to play all the games avaliable. I hope that developers realise this, and concentrate more on PS3/360 as everyone who ones those consoles can get the best out of them. Somewhere I saw a thread comparing the graphics of Crysis to MGS 4 and Uncharted. They all looked as good. However, everyone who buys a copy of the PS3 games will be able to enjoy those superb graphics, but only those who have the most powerful computers will be able to enjoy Cyrsis to its full potential.
Back to the main point. I beleive that at the moment, the Wii is in a different market to the PS3/360. But, when Singstar, Eye Toy LBP all come out, that is going to change. Of course, by then the PS3 wont be more than double the price, so it will be able to compete with the Wii while competing with the 360.
Concerning the whole sequels argument, the game I'm most looking forward to is Uncharted (hence the pic), but anyway, the only problem with sequels if the original was great. for example God of War 2 wasn't praised as highly as it could have been, because GoW was so incredible, and it did little to improve, but it did not need to. I don't think a sequal should be particually judged on what it is like compared to previous games in the series, but what it does itself.
Last point, although Final Fantasy games all start with the same name, there is very little to connect the games, other than moogles, airships and chocobos. Each game is completely different, although they are all RPGs, but of different natures. If you compare FF X to XII, they are comletely different games, as the main battle system is completely different. Even if you compare FF X to X-2 they are completely different games despite one being a direct sequel of the other. All I'm trying to say, is that there is no reason to complain about more final fantasy games, as the only thing that is consistent is the extremely high standard. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with a remake, it gives plenty of gamers a chance to play a game that they were never able to play before, with improved graphics
