Summary: “Avatar was rendered on supercomputers” Yes, I realize that, but they are not rendering at near the resolution of Avatar at 1080p.
And since the 4K TV's are coming out, and 1440p monitors are already out, and have been for a couple of years. It would be sad to have a consol that is already rather dated before it even his it's first major price break.
Not too many people at 720P TV’s when the Xbox 360 came out. Yes they were out, but more of an ‘elite’ TV, like the 4K will be in a few years. And all the X360 games are developed at 720p.
Look - I'm not saying that they Xbox 720 will have 'Cameron’s Avatar' level graphics. Although, being rendered several years ago, with ‘Moore’s Law’ things have improved much since that time. And the Xbox 360 is equivalent of a super computer less than two decades ago. And if it comes out in 2013 that’s nearly 5 years since Avatar was rendered.
I'm just point out that there is plenty of room to improve 1080p if that's all it can do. But there also to seems to be tradition that the target should be the new TV's coming out.

Sorry to break it to you but 1440 is not a TV resolution so won't be supported and 4k even for upscaled is not possible as HDMI 1.4 only supports up to 24fps for 4k video and I don't think many people will be happy if games were limited to 24fps... 1080p will be the max resolution next gen unless they have 2 HDMI ports which is just not going to happen. There is currently no HDMI spec planned that supports higher framerates so a final spec is several years off.
Well I guess Sony may try to push their 4k TVs via Display port and a good internal upscaller but I doubt it.
Nope 1080p will have to do for the next 7-11 years for consoles.

Well I disagree, 4k TVs display outputs will have use in the new PS4 console extensively...1440p atleast is so likely happening...don't be surprised if there are provisions for higher ultra HD....1080p will be the standard resolution though for next 7-11 years...
