The biggest flaw with PC gaming, compared to the console market is non-uniform hardware. You have a huge userbase, but most of that userbase believes that for whatever reason, their PC won't play newer games(and they are usually right).

The Sandy Bridge CPU offers an all in one cpu/gpu that can represent a basic benchmark for computer game playability. In other words, if you  have a sandy bridge CPU you can play any PC game at its lowest setting at the very least(this will be coded into the games). It won't require any upgrades, and there won't be any doubt or worry that your computer can or can't play a game. It can be the PC "uniform hardware" requirement that can bring PC gaming reliability close to that of a console for the majority of gamers.

You buy an Xbox, you can play Xbox games. You buy a PS3 you can play PS3 games. You buy a PC, you can't really play PC games very well if at all. If you buy a Sandy Bridge PC you can play PC games. Win.

I don't need your console war.
