So that demo was run on an AMD 7900 Graphics card? That transfers 2,176 Gfloss of Data right?
PS4's Graphics Card is capable of 1,840 Gflops (Which is about as powerful as a 7850-7870).
This means that the PS3 version will be about 90% as good as that video, not bad. Wait! Was the demo on a 7900 or a 7990? There is a big difference, a 7990 has 6,963 Gflops of data, which would put the PS4 version running at 30% of the demo's capabilities.

For reference, the 1st number represents the series humber (7th series) and the second number represent the .... power level? So the PC is at 9, the PS4 is at 8. The other two numbers I think are like update numbers ( Like version 1.1, 1.2, etc)
Also X-Box and PS3 are about 240Gflops, so let's see how they turn out with just over 10% the graphical power.

Funny, I don't see a HUGE jump this gen, despite PS4 being nearly 9x more powerful then the PS3.

I would argue that PS4 is much more than 9x more powerful than PS3 (RAM, alone, jumped x16). Besides, as always mentioned, launch games won't tell the full story.

True... though, launch games will tell more of a story then they usually do, since it seems like these two consoles are going to be more like regular PCs in design then ever. Since the two big improvements in graphics over a generation are familiarity with the hardwre and new graphic techniques.
That said what is also being overlooked is... while you might not SEE as much of a change when looking at one dude. ... what we WILL see is a big change technically.
So you might not see a big change in the "look at how amazing these small set piece enviroments like GOW look" however the big open world games that have to have all kinds of assets on screen at once?
They'll look WAY better then last gen, and seem more alive as they will be able to add more to scenes.
