In addition to the lower hardware costs, a console can usually achieve better performance for its hardware capabilities due to its architecture being designed exclusively for games.

As a developer, you can be guaranteed that every console is identical. Exploits, direct memory access, etc, can be replicated safely, squeezing better performance from less hardware.

This can never be guaranteed on a PC. Plus there are always additional services running in the background.
