You can't really compare the Xbox360 or PS3 with an existing cable STB (even one with H264 capabilities, not just the backwards V+ box). The STB is two way RF. The other two are IP. Maybe in the future if Virgin decide to give more of the RF over to IP streaming a cable modem and the games console could be a possibility.
