Consoles would benefit at running games 720p instead of 1080p.

1) The difference is massive.

2) Without 1080p, you won't be able to see the extra detail. Metro 2033 on ultra looks no different than medium if you play it below 900p.

1 is subjective.

2 is bullshit. This is kinda like saying PS3 and PS4 look the same on a 720p TV. You don't need 1080p resolution to notice higher polygon models, better lighting, smoother frame rate, etc.

You would definetly notice that, but wouldn't your framerate be smoother if you are playing on medium?

Uhhhh..... if the cap is 60 fps and that's achieved on max setttings, no.

Aren't you adding some variables that weren't in the original statement. And in that case the framerate part of your statement makes no sence, as you say you ccould notice the difference, while if you achieve 60 fps on Ultra, then you could most deffinetly achieve 60 fps on medium which means you couldn't notice the difference (in framerate) as there is none.
