Yeah the part where they were comparable to nice PC's part. I was like WTF ? :P

Because they were, back then SLI wasn't even stable so you can't run multiple cards without just hoping for the best, the PSUs in the rigs were nowhere near today's levels, and the RAM count was also much lower at the time. PCs have come a long way since then. In the best case scenerio they were not too far apart in hardware but PCs had more layers to go through so consoles actually had certain advantages, well, excluding the Wii.

Even then there were cards out there that smashed the ps360 before they even launched and they were the Radeon X1800 XT from ATi at the time and the GeForce 7800GTX from nvidia so consoles have never being more powerful after the release of the first windows. Jen is just asshurt about the fact that their company didn't even get one console manufacturer. 

I said nice, not high end. Like, above average.

Sure these new consoles seem a little underwhelming in terms of leaps and all but I'd go as far to say that the PS4 is pretty decent jump. I don't know about the others though plus PC's are going to fail to get much more powerful once we run through every process node shrinks. PC's are arguably the most powerful platforms but even then they have limits too but it's higher for them. BTW screw consoles and PC's for power I want render farms, super computers, and personal server's for that shit LOL.

I'd rather use those to calculate things that are more meaningful than video games.....

Hey, we all have different wishes but were all pretty selfish at times so videogames > computing other things for me. :P
