It's a mistake to think PS4/Next Xbox won't provide a generational leap in terms of graphics

The problem isn't the increase in graphics; the problem is the decreased return on investment into graphics.

The better things become, the less noticeable the changes are and general consumers will care less about these graphical increases.

While I think this is reserved for another topic, I do agree the average person might not notice a difference. With the right type of marketing though, I think people might find their current systems to be inadequate. Who knows?

That being said, I don't think developers should stop investing into graphics. It's still an untapped market where I imagine many smartphone gamers who have never even touched a PS3/360 game. There's still much to gain from here and people do love eye candy. Plus, graphics do truly enhance the gameplay, whether some people want to believe that or not.
