But what do consoles limit?

Apart from shiny graphics what things are games trying to do which they need more power for?

Which games are pushing at AI or different forms of man machine interfaces?

When was the last time you saw a console that allows mods to be created?

Battlefield 3 also had toned down graphics on consoles.
