No they aren't anyone who even looked into it would know that consoles do not equal p.c.s
consoles run on proprietary software that is debuged by a company, alot of the stuff is even enginneered into the hardware
running a game on an emulator isn't the same as running it on a console which is why p.c. often needs 10x more power to emulate a console game
not only that but with security it's harder to hack a console then it is software on your computer, just like you can't download and re-distribute games without going through all this other stuff
a console may look similar to a p.c. but they aren't the same thing by a mile pre ps3 they didn't even have hard drives to install anything on
if a console is a p.c. then a cellphone is a console this could go on forever you could even say CNC machines are gaming p.c.'s or anything that has an electrical signal and memory is a p.c.
get your head straight
You mean a custom os? Also cellphones are both phones and computers. ---
