Everyone bashes everyone on youtube. When the consoles are released they're always in the mid-high range of PC GPU's. Last Gen the 360 and the PS3 was around a 7800 GTX when 8800 GTX is out. This gen it's around a 7870 when unnanounced GPU is out. Consoles will be more optimized than equivalent PC builds, but optimization will only compete with brute for for so long. I'm not sure why some console gamers or PC gamers are spazzing out like it's any different than before. What you say is true though.

So why Crysis 3 runs on PS3/X360 and not on 8800 GTX?

it can, but you have to hack it by disabling DX11 features like ambient occlusion or tesselation (which consoles don't have so it's not like the engine requires this to always be there), and replacing the DX11 libraries with DX10 libraries. Crytek only included the DX11 libraries for marketing or some nonsensical reason.

This is definetly a benefit of a console though because you don't have devs pulling this screwy stuff, to lock out harderware.
