i think when people are worried that becuase of the lack of dx10 support the console wont be "future proof" they are less concerned over the fact that programers are going to have to be writing code for the specific console, and are more concerned dthat the 360 cant handle the shinny new graphics of dx10.

just update your pc and settle with a wii thats all you need since the 360 is just a hybrid ie phantom. didnt mention sony cause they are still smoking

You are correct in everything you say in the article, (from what i can tell). However, you also leave a few points out. While these points don't blow a hole through your argument, they certainly are valid.
For example, cross-console games. We all know how these turn out. Have you ever looked at the "Splinter Cell" franchise? Sure, most (if not all) of the series was released on all consoles (and PC), yet the Playstation 2 and Gamecube versions were not only stripped of graphical enhancements, but were also stripped of gameplay features.
Xbox: http://i.i.com.com/cnet.g2/images/2005/news/07/13/scct_screen002.jpg
Gamecube: http://i.i.com.com/cnet.g2/images/2005/093/reviews/924557_20050404_screen002.jpg
Which looks better? Hell, according to Gamespot at least, the Xbox version of the game was around 2/10 points better then the Gamecube version.
Now, EA games have had a reputation of making fairly great ports of their games to all consoles. Most games are fairly similar in look, feel, and gameplay. This is where your argument stands true - it STILL a possibility that games like these will be released. However, many companies don't have enough money, time, or employees to release the game on the so many consoles, and STILL have them all look good. Last time I checked, you don't just take a PC version of the title, throw it through a "PC to Xbox" converter and burn it to a disc, (though, i wish you could).
In the end, this next "Console War" will be as partizan as ever. Companies that were barely able to do decent cross-platform ports may simply stick to the "exclusivity" rule due to the mere COST, and even when they won't each console will have to have their own version. If each console DOESN'T, then the most powerful of the 3 will have to be tuned down so that least powerful could still play it. I call shenanigans.
I may be dead wrong, but I'll leave it up to the developers to prove that to me, not some other analyst with an agenda.

Yeah well let me bust your bubble again....
http://www.beyond3d.com/articles/xenos/index.php?p=10
The Xenos actually supports a function MEMEXPORT that won't even be available in DX10 anyways....newbs are so funny when they don't understand sh*t....i'm guessing you never even read the article ? DX10 is mainly for PC developers who have to program with 10+ different types of cards in mind....the Xenos has so many card specific functions, and the fact that there is only one card, that it would be amost stupid for devs to use DX anyways, they should be buidling their own custom API.....anyways, that link goes to page 10, but for anyone who wants to know pretty much everything about the xenos, goto the 1 page, it's a good read....

it seems like every time something is wrong with the ps3 people just bash and bash. but when its the xbox 360, they are quick to take up for the system. when sony used the tilt action people said that they copied off nintendo. but when microsoft takes the eyetoy, people are like "wow what a cool feature". now I would bet my college money that if this artical was about ps3. everybody would say it sucks because it doesnt use direct x. and you need it to make good games. anyway ps3 bashing is getting old, just let the system come.

First of all, there ya go cows!!! Couldnt say it better myself!
Second, yo QJ YOU MUST MAKE MORE ARTICLES LIKE THIS. I LOVED IT! THER ARE LOTS OF FANS WHO LOVE VIDEOGAMES OS MUCH THAT WOULD BE NICE TO HEAR ARTICLES ABOUT PROGRAMMING, CODING, SOFTWARE AND THINGS LIKE THAT WE JUST DONT KNOW ANYTHING OF.
SO KEEP MAKING THESE KIND OF ARTICLES. IT`S REALLY INTERESTING HOW YOU FIRST STARTED WITH A FACT THAT THE SONY FANBOYS WILL USE TO FLAME X360 USERS, THEN EXPLAIN A LITTLE BACKGROUND ABOUT IT THAT I UNDERSTOOD AND THEN MAKE A GOOD AND LOGICAL CONCLUSION!!!!
KEEP EM COMING!!!
NEED A SUGGESTION!!!!
WHAT`S A FRICKING DEV KIT!!! IVE SEEN THESE PHOTOS OF PS3 DEV KIT AND IT IS HUGE.......... BUT WHAT IS IT!? WHAT IS IT USED FOR!?
ANYWAY THANKS QJ!!!!!!

It seems that even after this article people don't seem to understand what DX10 actually is. Image this; you are the captain of a ship and you only speak english, your engine crew speaks every language BUT english (you have picked them up in all corners of the world). You need a translator inbetween to get the ship to move, because it is impossible to learn all these different languages (and your crew haven't got the slightest intention to learn english). This is the PC world, and the translator is called DX10.
Now to the console world. Same situation, except you now have a crew you picked in one port and they all speak English. The is no need whatsoever for the translator (DX10), and he can be sent home.
Now there is the translators' union (Misinformed fanboys in this case) that insists that the ship needs a translator to function properly and that any ship without it is useless (or 'current/last gen' in console terms). We know better better than that (don't we?) and let them boil in their own ignorance while we enjoy the ONLY next-gen console currently on the market...
