No, because then people would just buy a PC. The reason consoles exist is because they're cheaper. Building them to match PC's would be pointless and expensive.
Most of the newer games are so demanding that they're not even outputted in true 1080P HD or even upscaled for that matter. That ALONE is worth upgrading the hardware; big difference PS3 users can't experience.
Cryengine has been limited by consoles recently. A recent article I read on here stated the Crytek wasn'r pursuing consoles anymore unless there are upgrades; they've been pushed to the limit.
Yea, I don't know who and their mother would not think the PC version is not the start of next gen? I've been playing the game off and on since launch and it still looks phenominal.
Oh I'll still be gaming on consoles, mostly for exclusives but all multiplats I'll be picking up on the PC. The argument was about next gen technology and not necessarily gameplay or story. Remember, if you're talking about next gen, it can be done now at home on a PC. That's my argument; EA doesn't need to wait for the future to develop the games. They also did create Origin so they must have something up their sleeve.
The point I was making is that a lot of people make up excuses why they perfer consoles without actually playing a good game on the PC. Video games are the only market where you see such fanboyism. How many people are going to dispute that their Honda Civic is better than a Ferrari without driving one; probably none.
Most people that argue in favor of the consoles are too lazy to do anything better and are satisfied with substandard gaming. They lack any technical expertise or know how, nor care to learn anymore. Lastly, they're 12 years old, have no money and received one as a Christmas gift from their parents. Plus don't even get me started on the "I perfer consoles because I like to lay on my couch argument either". This can be done on a PC and only compounds to the laziness argument.
I recently used to be a console only gamer via PS3 mostly because I was uneducated in anything else. I absoluletly loved, loved BF3 when it released but I knew there was a much much better version out there I couldn't play. Suffice to say, I built a new PC after doing some research and I don't regret a moment of it. For starters, the game looks absolutely friggan beautiful, it's larger, faster paced and better controlled. Except for maybe a couple exclusives I want to try down the road, I won't be using the PS3 anymore except for Bluray. Trust me, until you sit in front of a PC in true HD with everything in real time, you have no clue what your missing.
