Simply I dont believe in a million years that the capability of the PS3 is better than the xbox360 (Oh no, please no flame war)
Maybe I would say the capabilities are within 10% of each other!!! So who cares about 10%, do we even see it, does it detract from the gameplay?
Returning to my first post, developers who would rely on 10% better preformance to sell there game may want to go exclusive. But even that financially doesnt stack up when MS and Sony will be so close in userbase uptil 2010.
10% better preformance for a 50% smaller userbase doesnt add up.
Secondly for people who want better preformace from their games, well you should head towards PC, if it matters that much
