It is not possible at the ps3's price point. Consoles exist for various reasons and the most important of those is providing performance at heavily discounted prices


Actually. If we are to compare it...
The PS4 price will be $550 AUD.
For roughly $600 AUD you can build a respectible gaming machine:

Hook it up to your TV and BANG.

Think of the extra $50 as a fee for online access for forever.
You can go cheaper than that if you shop around of course, I was just lazy and couldn't be bothered. (It's from PC Case gear.)

Intel Celeron? Really? Dont know that much about PC specs but that wouldn't strike me as a decent PC. You're also missing the part where a PC has to actually be more powerful to deliver the same performance thanks to less optimization and more bloatware using up resources. Stop reaching, it's not possible especially in the U.S. market where consoles are even cheaper relatively.
