It's possible to make as great water for 360 games too. That's a matter of design, not horsepower, when we're talking about 360/PS3 level of hardware.
I find it absurd that some people think 97,6% real looking water is so much better than 97,2% real. As the differences are becoming smaller and smaller, the fight is becoming funnier and funnier. 360/PS3 hardware already makes it possible to make games just about as real looking as the artists can produce.
What will you fight over in the next generation? The horsepowers won't soon mean anything, because both (PS4 and Xbox720) will have enough even for the graphic whores.
