When did you first notice that grafix had diminishing returns?

Again you keep bringing up ps3 difficulty. 360 was a easy console to develop for and saw similar gains, and sony first party studios are wizards when it comes to making amazing graphics. Even if ps3 was easy to develop for you would have still seen the same gains, probably more, and  just multiplats  games running better on ps3. you are focusing on the wrong aspect when it comes to gains.

Even 360's hardware was more exotic at launch than PS4/Xbone were. It didn't employ mature standardized technology like current gen systems do.

360 hardware within a year after release was  mature standardized technology that didn't stop it from making massive gains. Some of the biggest gains came when  it was ancient tech, Halo 4, and Forza horizon for example. 

First it was about ps3 complex tech, now your argument is about PS4/Xbone having  mature standardized technology, therefore  gains will be impossible to match lastgen exotic hardware. it doesn't really matter if it's mature standardized technology, if it's not a console like a ps4/xbox because developers would waste very little resources mastering it. That's why PC gaming graphics have seen  gigantic gains after current gen consoles were released. You also completely  ignore permalite explanation. It's fine if you are not impressed by the progress of ps4 games, but trying to pass off your opinion up as fact with weak arguments is not.
