You're hilarious. You should go read about what causes these issues (hardware that's superior but harder to develop for, to sum it up). The Playstation 2 was a great example of this.
The reason everything is going multiplatform is because dev. costs are now so high that it's much more profitable to do that than to stick with a single platform.
Try justifying the extra 10 bucks I'd need to fork on an Xbox 360 game vs. Wii and PC - you can't, it's not a next-generation format.
Go have fun with your so said superior beige box that outputs in ANALOG HD (unless you got the Elite, and that would make you a douche) that isn't even a true media center unless you're subscriped to Live - I'll stick with my Wii (sure, it's not exactly worth the money you're forking on it and it's profitable, but at least it's non-stop fun and it's different) and PS3 (whenever I get it, heh) so I can play games with normal people, not only gamers (implies that most if not all 360 hit titles are titles that could and fare as well on a PC - i.e.: racing and FPS games.
... And maybe watch an HD movie every now and then (our HD set is broken, so that'll have to wait. :V).

SHOCK HORROR
PS3 used NOT to play games.
You just wish your console was as multifaceted. ;P
Oh yes Matt, "we" all wish "our" GAMING console was not being using for actually playing *gasp* GAMES.
Think he was being sarcastic
Ooooh insulting the PS3, original!
Oooh using the PS3 for something other than gaming, Original!
Shock! HORROR! Xbox 360 not used due to it not having enough processing power!
Xbots in torment!
lol, the awesome power of the PS3, watch as it hits nearly half the frame rate of the xbox360 AND has no games.... GASP.
