I game on a 40 inch Samsung LCD tv approx. 2.5 metres away and even though I wouldn't say it is a deal braker I do think that after a generation that has lasted some 8 years that it is reasonable to expect native 1080p graphics on consoles.
I have also been gaming in 1080p on my pc sitting 0.5 metres away since 2008 so I would definitely like to consign my 720p gaming to a thing of the past.
Obviously the bigger the TV the more noticable upscaling becomes as opposed to native resolution so it depends on the situation but overall the goal should definitely be to have 1080p native if possible on the next gen consoles.
