I understand bringing up Ryse and Watchdogs, but why Infamous and Driveclub?  From what I have seen, Infamous looks like they said it would. And Driveclub has actually seen improvements in the graphics department since it was first showcased. A much more obvious, and easily seen, showcase of trailer (demo in the case of a few One titles) and release differences would be Forza. 

 

@ OP

 

I suppose this is going to add to resolution gate when it launches. Not really a big deal, now, just a constant reminder that MS is overcharging for weaker HW. Not sure why they didn't just leave the price at $450 after Titanfall released. I guess they just want to make a bigger splash out of the cut at E3. 

Both infamous and Driveclub has initial trailers that were more impressive visually than actual gameplay footage shown.

In what way were either DC or inFamous less impressive than their initial trailer? :/ DC is hard to say, since the first we saw of it was an "action cam" style trailer, but gameplay wise it's improved heavily since it's first proper showing.

As for infamous, all they showed at the start were cutscenes, and those have remained graphically identical (excluding some small changes here and there, like the time of day in a couple of cutscenes).

Thinking about it, pretty much every title we saw back then has ended up looking either identical or better (even watchdogs, though they should have been a lot clearer it was the PC version being shown). Forza 5 is the only major exception i can think of.

No definitely not.

Watch dogs was downgraded. Even on PC it was downgraded. Have a look at the initial reveal trailer again and do a direct comparison. Theres effects and detail missing. Biggest culprit imo. And yeah a high end PC will close the gap but it was still downgraded. The car models is a big giveaway they look completely different.

Ryse was clearly downgraded. Some fans say it wasnt but it clearly was. You could especially see a downgrade in character detail.

Driveclub's initial reveal trailer was said to be in game. Then we started seeing actual gameplay videos of driveclub which was FAR from the level of detail the initial video had it at. Plus clearly there were effects missing. Considering that Driveclub hasnt actually released yet, then yeah perhaps i was unfair on this title.

Infamous definitely changed as well. Looking at the first gameplay reveal trailer compared to actual gameplay. Certain aspects improved others downgraded.

Forza can be added to the list of games above it was also downgraded clearly.

That being said I think all the games mentioned are still impressive. My point is that it wasnt as impressive as what they initially showed.

Lets reserve judgement for when the game actually releases.
