We were talking about early to late PS3 games due to the architecture being bat shit crazy to develop for. And even with that in mind, the games we can actually look at (same dev, same setting and tone games) look pretty much identical. Based off that what is the likelyhood of games looking insanely better from the start of this gen to the end (based on a 5 year cycle)? We are already nearing year 2 for PS4 and Xbone and know what these games look like for this year. We can pretty much call second year a wrap.
That said, are graphics going to get better? Sure. By any great amount? No.
The fact that games look so much better (exclusives wise) is because the old consoles simply could not get that much farther ahead in graphics even after new engines, ect came. Therefore, its probably safe to assume PS4 and XBone exclusive games now and near the end of its life cycle will look (different sure, but) practically the same.

I would like to direct you to Guitarguys post on Uncharted 1 and 3. I'd also like to point you to Call of Duty 3 for 360 and PS3 vs. Advanced Warfare for the same consoles.
I'd also like to reiterate the point that the devs are saying that we'll see significant improvement and they actually know what they're talking about.

Thanks :)
I actually wanted to quote my post and bigtakilla's but wasn't sure how to do it in the one post. The difference between Uncharter 1 and 3 is staggering. Sure it is not a generational leap(ie PS2 to PS3, OG Xbox to 360) but it is significant. Will the PS4 and X1 see leaps of this caliber? It is possible surely considering every other console has seen graphical improvements over time. Perfect Dark looked much better than Goldeneye(same developer/console/engine albeit modified), Gran Turismo 4 looked much better than GT3(again same developer/console/engine). GTA5 smokes GTA4 on every level also. I don't see this trend stopping just because these consoles use standardised components.
