The applicability of cross play will depend on the game in question and as gears of war showed us needs to be tested instead of people blindly making assumptions. The main issue consoles are facing is pc is growing very quickly and is not slowing down (it has in fact surpassed the entire console market from what I understand). Microsoft is aware of this and thus have been positioning themselves to take advantage of it. Sony has not revealed what there plans are beyond maybe psnow, so time will tell how they intend to continue playstation in the future.

Except that everyone I know that has a PC pirates their games and doesn’t spend a single penny on software. Everybody I know that has a console actually pays for their software. So, PC may have outgrown consoles, but is it really financially viable for the companies producing content for it? That begs the question, how long will publishers keep supporting PC?
