7th to 8th gen is the smallest jump in graphics I have seen. Yep I will be the bad guy and say it.

You're comparing late last gen with early this gen.

Compare late 6th gen with early 7th gen and you don't see a huge jump in most cases. Same for late 5th with early 6th.  

There was a huge jump between late P1/N64 games and early PS2/Gamecube games.

PS2 launch

 

Truely a massive leap

As I said to CGI-qualtiy the pics in my OP was more of a reference (to the previous gens) than actual evidence, because I know the pics would not accurately represent the games (for better or worse). Just like I can tell in your pic of MGS that it is an emulated version because the ps1 texture quality was not that good ( I don't the ps1 had Bi-linear filtering or whatever its called).
