https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abGW1bk1nmM - The Myth of Console Optimization. This guy took a 7800GT, PS3s GPU, and put it to work under fraps for recording his games.
Optimization is nice and all but it's not black magic. For the PS3 to even run the latest games, games had to be in Sub-HD, little to no AA, etc.
Finally, other than gaming a console can't really do anything.
