Last shooter I played "for real" was CS 1.6, all other FPS I either don't do MP or just play the minimum (if it is low) for my platinum in series I like.

So really even 60fps is pointless for me outside of Gran Turismo and fighting games. I can understand it being desirable by a small group of PC gamer, but considering console gaming have always put more of the budget on graphics and aiming 30 fps (outside of e-sport games and the like) I don't think anyone will really aim 120fps next-gen. Perhaps we may start to care about 60fps in more genres (I doubt) but before we do it, 120fps is outside of question.

Why is it desirable, only by a "small" number of PC gamers?.

Because most people, by that basically all console gamers and even most PC gamers themselves don't play on 120fps setting due to how taxing it is for the system.

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying 120fps is coming to consoles anytime soon, it really isn't in any meaningful way, the primary display consoles use are Televisions, which generally are 60hz panels anyway. (Or use some kind of frame interpolation to fake higher rates. It's nasty.)

60fps though I think should be the minimum anyway, games just feel and looker smoother to play when they have the proper frame pacing.

Than so those 240Hz TVs were lying to me? Damnnnnn.

We both know that only if they have the "pro" version with more CPU they will have a more standard 60fps on consoles. Base console will mostly keep focusing 30fps and giving all else to graphic. So far Sony and MS have show that they prefer to have the graphic "twice as good" than twice the framerate.
