you say pc gaming hasn't improved a lot and then you say "hey if i'm talking about a straight port, i mean with 1080p or even higher and 60fps" this alone shows the huge difference between pc and console,  do you realize the difference between 1080p or 720p for a gpu? (and for a gamer sitting so close in front of a pc-screen to get a great huge picture?). i play pc games on my tv and since i can play them in 1080p, i can sit much closer to the screen, that's a great improvement for me to have a much bigger screen with the same quailty than playing in 720p sitting not so close to the screen which would make the picture much smaller and much less impressive.

with your logic i could say "hey developer make a pc game which only runs in 720p (to make it running on some pc's and not only on 1% of pc's) and then compare a pc game with 720p running on gpu's of the last 2 years with a console game with 720p. but developers don't do it because people want to have 1080p running on their gpu because that's one huge difference for them, playing on that resolution. give a pc gamer max payne 3 for his pc used to play games in 1080p or higher and let him play in 720p on his pc, he will say "omg what the shit is that?" because it will look horrible from that distance.

and i bet max payne will have better aliasing, lighting and so on as well on pc.

so all you said was:

"pc gaming hasn't such a big advantage to console games, the only difference is that there is a big advantage for pc games"
