Or maybe not. The new GTX760 is $249 and is almost at the tier of last years GTX670 which was $399. CPU bottlenecks should be less frequent with each year.

Year after year the PC will get better and cheaper than consoles... no news here.

Yeah, but consoles drop in price too.  You can get an xbox 360 for 200 right?  Can you build a PC for 200 that has 360 graphic fidelity?

Shit I don't think you can even buy a netbook for that.  It's still tough to do.  Bottom line is, price for performance it is tough to beat consoles due to the streamlined volumes they supply!

Now, you can craftily upgrade just PARTS of your PC to be cheaper... but I think most PC gamers want BETTER graphics and are willing to pay for it.  I used to love gaming on my PC in my college days (counter strike source ftw) but have since moved to consoles for how easy it is.  No worries about sound glitches (half life 2 anyone?) etc.  It just works.  That and the old lady wouldn't tolerate me up in my office gaming on PC, she likes to watch on the big screen.
