The pictures from quantum break are not graphics its real life footage made with actors. Photorealism is making games more intense imagine the horror game you play is indistiguishable from real life it would be way more intense. Photorealism also means a certain kind of physics animation and lighting level that can be used in games with their own artstyle. Its the hardest to achieve and therefor the holy grail in graphics. If we achieve photorealism we can do anything on a screen. Graphics will just be limited by the imagination of the developer and this is the ultimate goal.
