Corporations don't spend money switching development teams to unproven platforms for "freedom".
Do you know why companies like EA want a single open platform? Because it costs them money to port games over to other consoles. Having another one enter the market is a PROBLEM to them, not a solution...unless they switch over completely to that new platform and no company is that stupid. As long as there are millions of consumers playing their Wii/360/PS3, then this new open platform does nothing to address EA's concern...in fact, it just makes it worse. Which is why companies like EA will completely ignore it.
As you've said yourself, it's just a PC. Trying to sell it as an "open console", when it's just a PC with standard specs, isn't fooling anyone.
