Dual top-of-the-line graphic cards might just cost you $1,200 alone. Then you need a 64bit processor, top RAM etc etc - that's easily breaking the $3,000 mark. And that's before you add a new widescreen high def monitor, which might just add another $1,000+
And before the year is over, your pc will be worth half as much and already lag behind the cream of the crop - 2 years later you won't run games on max settings anymore. That's quite a lot of money to invest.
With a console you can just plug it in and KNOW that everything is going to run smoothly without the need to upgrade anything. That and you get to play it on however big your TV is. Gaming on a 42'' Plasma has a certain appeal
And as mentioned before: the two final fantasy XIII games will be exclusive to the PS3. That alone should be reason enough to buy it
