"And if it is as you say then we should have games like never seen before on the PS3, which is complete BS at the moment. "

We are still talking about physics right? And in this particular area the Cell really is much more powerful than any PC on the market if used correctly. Have you seen Little Big Planet? Some scenes have amazing physics interaction between complex objects.
And for something similar (if not as pretty) to the first scene:

Or this cool scene of leaves in a tornado

Or the ducky demo (just ignore the annoying presentator)

Overall the PC has more general-purpose power nobody is arguing against that. But it is silly to say that consoles couldn't compare to the physics of PC games, when the PS3 essentially has a Vector-computer build in that is normally used for physics simulations.

PCs have better graphics because their graphic cards are 2 generations ahead. They have much more RAM, they have faster computing but physics is one area where the PS3 eats their cake, developers just have to use it, we just have had the first year after all.
