Hate to say it but the techonology hasn't been as faced paced as it used to. I have a Geforce 6800GT card in my system and it still 2nd to the top for the Nvidia (well soon to be 3rd) But thats after its been out 1 year.. 1 year before Nvidia finally put a card out that is faster well its the same 6800Ultra but with 512MB Ram.. Also look at processors they haven't gotten any faster for a while now.. But they have changed shift.. now its going Duel Core.. SO what i am saying is for raw processing i think the next gen consoles will actually out power desktops when they come out.
And i hate to say it but there is reports that Microsoft will actually make there system cost more then they expected so they can reap the benifits of the Ps3 taking longer to show up.. Until the Ps3 shows up then they will drop the price to match the Ps3.

If you wish to read the article.. So your $300 for 360 i highly doubt it.. it will probably be around 450-500
Actually the Ps3 will be a dvd player also.. it can support basically all media + blu-ray which will give it an advantage with blu-ray since 1 disk can hold 25gigs. and they are now making a blu-ray disk that can hold 100gig.s.
