Nah, there was a short period there for a while when PC was lagging a bit. All there was that looked better was Star wars Battle Front among a few others. Uncharted 4 and Horizon were blowing all else away. Not in terms of technical stuff but in terms of what you were looking at on screen. Even The Last of us 2 gave PC a run for it's money. Then the 2080 dropped and 3080, then 4080 and PC took a huge lead again but in that late stage 1080, 8th gen was holding up. Plenty of PC gamers minds were blown across the forums I was using by how well ps4 was doing and all there was on PC was unreleased glorified tech demos like Star Citizen. And yes, the gap has dramatically sized up again as it was before mid to late 8th gen. 

Meh, not really.  Bare in mind those PC games were true 1080p and 60 fps.  Not upscaled 1080p and 30 fps.  PC has always been ahead.  Witcher 3 on PC is quite stunning.  

I mean the ps4 is roughly similar to a 750 ti...  a 1080 is literally 500% more powerful.  PC has always crushed consoles, including Uncharted.

Hell a 980 smokes a ps4.  

I can't go back in time to show you but I basically seen side by sides of the best the PC was doing at the time on my mates beastly rig and at the time ps4 was visually looking better. I don't care about numbers and tech if it doesn't add up to something beautiful on screen and those games looked better even if the PCs were more powerful. I had so many PC gamers agree with me at the time. The talent at Sony first party simply beat the tech. It doesn't matter how powerful a PC is if the games on it aren't looking impressive and at the time they weren't, Sony first party games were the leading edge in graphics. It was a fluke but now that games are going to PC and the PC is getting more focus by devs like how Cyberpunk and Wu Kong were built for PC first, yes it's back to the old days where PC suits on console.

You do know that the last of us 2 was considered the best looking game of all time by the masses. Didn't have a PC port. Just pure talent squeezing out the most of inferior hardware. We can't go back in time to settle this so let's just agree to disagree cause there's no way I'm agreeing that PC had significantly better looking games in that time period, it simply didn't.
