I think there will be a number of 720P games this gen. Why? Cause isn't not that great a deal. It's more important that your screen be a higher rez, than the game. Plus, designers don't want tiny people and can't assume everyone has a 6 foot or 2 meter screen.
Looking at 480p on a 1080p isn't so good, well, unless you have a great upscaler with 8 level anti aliasing. It will be fuzzier than a true 1080p signal but usable.
Unless your eye can recognize each dot, then a 720p and a 1080p signal isn't dramatic. Sure I want everything run at 4K at 120 fps, but tech for the masses isn't affordable yet. The screen should be a high rez as you can get. Someday we will stop talking about resolution and talk about the DPI of the screen - as that has much to do with how you perceive the image.
