HD itself doesn't cost anymore than SD as every single PC games for 20 years have been in HD. Of course you can do a lot more with a console that has 512mb and a better GPU than with 88mb yet every HD game doesn't cost the same. What cost is detailed 3D models which even some Nintendo games have them. What HD allows is you are able to see more details of the 3d models when deplayed in the distance just as those close up views. Of course if a game has low texture (a lot of HD games has) then HD will reveal this with a close up view.
