I mean 1080p is almost completely saturated at this point.  They are running out of the amount of detail they can show in 1080p.  I know you and others will jump in and say that "many games don't even run in 1080p on PS4!"  But the fact is that I just blaime that on lazy programing.  After all, every PS exclusive has 1080p so far and it's not like InFamous looks worse than BF4 (Quite the opposite).

The X1 is a different story, but I doubt MS will make an underpowered console again.

We're straying away a bit here, but I don't think we've saturated even 720p, let alone 1080p, not that it matters when it comes to this particular conversation.

People who know me around here know that everytime there's a talk about "reaching maximum", "diminishing returns" and similar subjects I always post this 5 years old 720p off-line CGI that looks better than anything we'll see in at least next 5 years in real time.

The lighting and polygon count looks amazing.  That's it.  It also looks blurry as hell, and games out now have better looking textures.  Sorry.


I know it's April 1st and all, so I'm hoping you're not being serious there? Cause if you are...oh deary...

It will take a lot of years for any consumer hardware to render this in real time @720p, let alone in anything near 4K.
