"Although the PC is a generation ahead of the consoles, multi-platform games will suffer limitations on the PC due to console hardware restraints. ZoomIn an interview over the holidays, Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli stated a fact PC gamers already know quite well: the PC is a whole generation ahead of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. While that's a big “win” for PC gamers in the PC vs. Console dispute, the victory comes with a price: developers are primarily focusing on consoles, holding back game quality of the PC versions." | more

That just how it goes with the consoles, when they first come out they are ahead of the PC, but as time pushes on the PC keeps upgrading.

It's obvious when you look at any exclusive for PC or most multiplatfrom games, not just hogher resolutions but the DirectX thing. PC's are on 11 and PS3 and 360 are still on 9 =/

I'm looking forward to Crysis 2 =)
