Ahh but its ok, we can go on this for the whole day. You are entitled to your own opinion. I feel that hi-res textures will matter. As to how much of a difference it will make, time will tell.
However supporting Kyros's argument I do believe that once developers figure out how to extract the best out of the PS3 architecture, its a simple matter of passing out the knowledge so that development on the platform doesn't remain hard anymore and I think this is already happening.
