Microsoft's and Sony's respective visions of how to evolve the gaming experience with (more or less interesting) peripherals will probably be way more important than theoretical compute power."

I buy a console to play Games and why input is important it isn't everything I love KB/M but can handle a controller being the main input for console , my reason for saying this is I feel continually concentrating on input is turning it into a differentiation contest rather than a quest for the best interface , I don't think graphics have got to the point yet that they're good enough that increases wouldn't make a difference especially to immerse you in the world visually but it's getting there , I would like us to get to the point where only incremental graphical improvement is available considering the limits of current TV's so the focus is moved on to better AI bigger worlds less pop up etc , rather than some one saying here's a tech analysis for you about a new effect it goes in great detail so even though you probably didn't notice it you now know why it's so great.
Still power helps everything not just graphics it can help everything run better and maybe one day the extra power might be what's needed for the industry to make games that are so far ahead it ushers in a new type of interface to get the best experience possible out of them.
Research shows Video games help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot
