Exactly, PCs already outclass consoles
Or *still* outclass consoles with regard to gaming (well at least it seems Oblivion on a high specced PC). Once game engines start to make use of the SPEs there are enormous oppertunities to outshine even top PCs with regard to game complexity and performance.
You could compare this with early Atari ST ports to the Amiga, being a little better on the Atari ST. But later down the road with developers taking advantage of the custom chips completely crushed anything the Atari ST could do with regard to game complexity and performance as well as audio and graphics.
1080p + 7.1 surround audio I think is good enough for the foreseeable future.
