Well I've never cared about resolution (hell I only have a 720p tv), but I remenber debating over game quality last gen. But it was only due to Sony constantly bragging about the power of the Cell and camparing the 360 to an xbox 1.5 and saying the ps3 was more like 3.5 while in fact almost every multiplat showed better quality on the Microsoft platform.
with statements like these http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=485754 it was only natural for the Xbox fans to show proof that their console of choice was much more capable than Sony wanted you to beleive.
This gen Microsoft is congratulating Sony over the ps4 and the resolution wars is raging more than ever. It's not for the same reason but it still does not show a genuine care about the difference in graphics IMO.
