If you wanted to play it on PC you'd probably need to get an XGPU because I heard it was very very powerful, i.e. more powerful than any other GPU.

A PC launch is much more likely than a PS2 or PS3 launch because the Xbox is basically a PC in a black box and the PS2 is much harder to program for than the Xbox and they already abandoned the PS2. Since the PS3 isn't going to be launched for several years it would be pretty stupid to launch a game several years after it was launched on another system.

Case study.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 was launched on PSX, PS2, Xbox, GBA (GC?). They aren't going to put THPS3 on the PS3 when it comes out, they will put THPS6 (estimate) on the PS3 (if the THPS franchise is still profitable) because THPS3 will be old by then.
You don't see AO or AE being anounced for the Xbox, do you.
