Default The future of PC upgrading

So with the huge focus now days on console gaming i have noticed a real slow down in the production of demanding games for the pc.

The fact that crysis is still the most demanding and graphically superior game on the pc shows how much things have slowed concidering it was released in 2007 (although it was ahead of its time)

Every few months there would be a new game with a massive graphics upgrade and every company went out of their way to make the most realistic game out there. i think the battle was at its peak during the release of HL2 and doom 3.

Of course pc gamers had to pay the price for this constant graphics evolution. I remember nvidia updating their graphics card range almost monthly to keep up.

Does anyone else think this graphics war will pick up again or are pc games going to have to wait for the consoles to catch up?

(Also concidering there were much more powerful PCs out when the 360 was released in 2005 it really does show how much the consoles are holding the pc back in 2010)
