I think visual fidelity past what the PS4/720 are likely to fall into is a moot point to be honest.

Unless you have a 4K monitor, to make a game on the PC platform that goes far beyond the PS4/720 will likely cost anyone a motion picture-sized budget to achieve.

So I don't really even see the point in that. Maybe by 2015/16 when 4K monitors become a little more common.

Sorry, I meant it in an overall sense of power with things such as AI, physics, visuals, etc. Not only limited to visuals. Visuals aren't the only area video games need improvement, but I do feel like it's the only area people ever care to talk about.

I'm not going to comment on your thoughts on the cost of building a PC that's more powerful than the PS4/720 because I had a hard time taking your words seriously without laughing. Sorry. =) I think you're either expecting way too much out of the hardware of those systems, or you simply don't understand prices for computer hardware.

Agreed, 100%

Recently I've been speaking with a friend of mine and a certain individual on this site, both of whom really know their sh!t when it comes to PC tech, and building the PC yourself, which obviously saves coin, you're still looking at likely over a grand for tech that could run, say, the upcoming Crysis 3 at its highest settings, even at 1080p/60fps.  No way are the new consoles from Sony and Microsoft going to be able to match that performance, and they really don't need to for what they're going for.
