Thats a pretty ignorant statement. When the PS3 came out at 600 bucks, I could easily make a 5+ year gaming computer not counting the monitor with that amount. Great thing about the computer is that virtually all software made on it scales. Crysis on medium is still technically better than anything you got on consoles.
Furthermore, if your smart you wouldnt spend the same amount of money on a computer as a PS3. In general the better computer you get now, the more money you'll save for not having to upgrade later down the line. So if you're serious about making a gaming PC, then yes, your computer will be guaranteed to play all the newest games.
Also, PC gaming industry is going up, or have you not been paying attention at all.
