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

They often do look the same on a 720p TV.  Haven't you noticed how so many people keep saying this about the comparison videoes on YouTube?

I played BF4 on PS3 and X1. The X1 version has sharper textures, better lighting, significantly less pop in, etc. Also, the 8th gen versions look less impressive when you only see them running at 30 fps.

I suggest you go look at screen shots comparing the 7th gen versions to the 8th gen versions. You don't need 1080p to see the differences.

Yeah but that game isn't saturating 720p on the X1.  Games like Infamous Second son do.
