What exactly is missing graphically from this generation's consoles that matters?

I wouldn't look at the graphics of current consoles as what needs to improve. But rather the size/scope of games.

I guess what I'm saying is that it's not the graphics comparision of Crysis 3 on PC vs current Consoles. But the size of BF3 on PC (64) compared to current Consoles (24). That's what I expect the next Consoles to do. Allow developers to create much bigger games I guess. Not sure how to explain it lol

So, what would you not get if the game in question on the current technology were MMOs?  Sony has the likes of Free Realm on the PS3, and that is fairly large.  What I would have to ask is: Why wouldn't developers who want larger games, not stick them in MMO format?  And also, is the likes of Skyrim too small?

No I simply saying that the upgrade in RAM with the new Consoles is whats really needed. And the amount of RAM in current consoles are what's really holding them back. 

Graphics in current consoles are fine imo. Sure going 60 FPS 1080p is nice. But when you look at a game like DC Universe, play it on the PS3, then on the PC you will see that the PS3 version is lacking. PS Home suffers some of the same problems as PS3 DCU. When you get around groups of people and things are happening on-screen, the game poops lol

I guess what I am saying is that Consoles and PC will be on a level playing field again. Not in terms of graphics (high end PC's will still have better graphics) but in terms of gameplay
