When did you first notice that grafix had diminishing returns?

I never said it was a fact ps4 has progressed as much PS3. You were trying to pass off that's its impossible to see similar gains because of the hardware being standardized CPU/GPU technology, when in fact it is possible just  by engines evolving, and new ways of rendering showing up. 

Engines evolving and new methods of rendering showing up happened last generation too. But in addition to that came big strides in hardware utilization that just haven't happened this time cos the hardware was easy to harness from the get go.

This is just speculation on your part. We don't how big the strides were in hardware utilization were this gen, it's safe to assume ps3 were probably much bigger because it of how complex it was, we can't say ps4 didn't have big strides in hardware utilization when results show it clearly has. Before ps4 came out no developer has ever tried to max out a Radeon HD 7850, with a a weak  8 core Jaguar CPU. Besides engine evolving, and new rendering techniques  alone can be  more impressive  then better hardware utilization  and rendering techniques combined, it just depends how advanced the former is. 

Wanna know how subjective people opinions are in progress here is a video comparison GEARS 1-3 on 360, and most think gears 1 looks the best.

Honestly to me  The progression in ps4 and ps4 look very similar, kind find ps4 to be more impressive.
