I'm not going to make a list but, past a certain point, graphics aren't that important.
That point, though, is really important. Graphical improvement can directly affect game-play. I used to hate FPS games because they made me sick. Just watching a video of GoldenEye someone posted recently gave me a headache and I had to turn it off. I loved Daggerfall but it used to make me feel physically sick. Advancements in graphics improved gameplay in that genre immensely.
Beyond that, however, I don't care all that much. I'm perfectly fine with Borderlands or Skyrim era graphics.
Now, some of the things that come with it are great, like increased draw distances, so it's not like I don't want the medium to keep moving forward.
