First Mantis I dig the MXC avatar...
Ok it has been said before but is worth saying again. Specs mean little to nothing. Back in the day when we talked about 16 bit and 32 bit specs mattered more. Why because companies needed the extra power to create the game they wanted. If we look at the level of games now I have one pure question. Are the gaming companies pushing the limits of the systems. I don't think so...
Schultz has pointed out many times that no gaming compaines use the full power of the PS2. Doom 3 finally pushed the xbox to it's limit (but if you own a Dreamx-xbox no one has even come close to pushing that to it's limits.) And the Gamecube did one thing that few people give them credit for. They mad it possiable for all of us to own all 3 systems. Hell you think Sony or M$ would have lowered thier prices if they didn't have too.
Look new systems are on thier way. M$ will be a FPS dream machine. Sony will have the biggest selection.(which is nice but how many god awful titles have we seen grace are tv screen thanks to the PS2) And Big "N" will make the best first party games. Hell who here is just waiting for the new Zelda. Also they put the most thought into games or pay 3rd party compines to take thier time. Look at FF:CC and RE:4.
I buy for gameplay and in the end I will own all 3 but not until the price matches what the gaming library looks like. Oh and Cidien backwards compatible is made via the source Sony, M$, and "N". It's an emulator built by the makers to have a library at the ready for launch. If M$ doesn't make the 360 fully backwards compatible it will hurt sales. People won't buy a system if there are no games (good) to be played on it. Look at the launch of the PS2 for a quick market history lesson.
