By the time of the Xbox 360 and PS3, the consoles were on par with the PC. If you look inside those boxes, they’re both powered by graphics technology by AMD or NVIDIA, because by that time all the graphics innovation was being done by PC graphics companies. NVIDIA spends 1.5 billion US dollars per year on research and development in graphics, every year, and in the course of a console’s lifecycle we’ll spend over 10 billion dollars into graphics research. Sony and Microsoft simply can’t afford to spend that kind of money. They just don’t have the investment capacity to match the PC guys; we can do it thanks to economy of scale, as we sell hundreds of millions of chips, year after year.
I'm starting to think you're just baiting here...

I'm still reading reams of bullshit in this thread.
People, *No* video cards out today blow away the hardware in the PS4 or Xbox One. nor will the ones released in the next 2-3 years. Higher resolution does not = better graphics. a Radeon 6770 can display the exact same graphics scene as a GeForce 780. The only difference is the Frame rate / resolution. Consoles don't play games at super high resolutions so its a moot point.
This is why this entire comment is completely full of shit. Games on the Ps4 and probably the xbox one will look as good or better in many cases than PC games for at least the next 3 maybe 4 years. in 5-7 years is when you will really start to see a difference. This is basically the same as it has always been.
Tablet hardware is not going to make any difference either. Not for at least 4-5 more years.

It doesn't pay off. It always is a pain in the butt to get the PC version just right . It's never hassle free. Been dealing with the PC on games for 23 years . I guess I am just tired of all the driver updates and config to get them running as it should. Believe me I prefer control of keyboard and mouse ect especially shooters or any fps. Just tired of qllbthebothervdyuff you gotta deal with for a PC . Now I am sure you'll come back and tell me that you never have issues with any games on PC ect. I guess will see how more games like witcher 3 are handled pc vs console. It's even less about graphics and more about control differences to me.

It wont be long until the day comes where mobile gaming is on par with high end PC and Nvidia will be there proud of their accomplishment.
Nvidia Tegra will surpass the Xbox One and PS4 in due time.

Some of you guys are missing the point. Sure the video cards blow away what consoles are today and maybe next generation after that. But what difference does it make when the game makers are designing games to work on consoles best and don't really put much effort on PC version nor support it long. You can brag all you want but the reality is it doesn't matter as game developers aim for where the money is, and that's consoles.
