Seems to me that either you are a spoiled bastard or you earn a lot of money..
Anyway, of course console versions wont compete with a PC but that is providing you have a high end pc. Not everyone has an HDTV you say, true, but not everyone has a monster pc that can support todays games without an upgrade or driver download or phone call to tech support or a tweak here and there and a defrag and being told on a forum to reformat your computer or wait for a patch...
You put in the game, switch the console on and thats it.
It doesnt take bill gates to know that an amd athlon 2200 has more processing power than a 700ish xbox.
For FPS, you cant beat a mouse and keyboard, but i enjoyed playing halo having a trigger button, and analog pads are handy for controlling movement on racing games.
Personally i am much happier with a console for games than using my PC. Braodband isnt available where i am yet so i dont play online much, and its nice having friends around for a multi tap on a console, sit around have a few drinks and a laugh.
The plug in and play of consoles makes my gaming a happier and stress free one.
I do have to ask though, seeing as you are biased towards PC games over consoles, why do you even own a console in the first place, let alone 6??
