Tbh this gen is not as great of a leap as last gen.


To be fair, you're comparing late 7th gen to launch 8th gen.

We saw a huge leap in graphics throughout the 7th gen.

Big part of that was everyone adjusting to HD development.

SD -> HD was a huge jump

except it wasn't really HD

if you read my original post (full - not the reinterpreted extract of puggsly) the most effective way to measure up leaps is in the costs (development & manufacture)

 

this gen is by no means as big of a leap as last gen, especially considering that the "flop-per-dollar" natural increase (moore's law, etc.) has been slowing down for a decade
