Not really.

Feel free to elaborate.

PS2 doesn't have games that look as good as exclsuive original Xbox games. Multiplats pretty much always looked better or significantly better on Xbox.

PS4 and X1 games look the same aside from resolution and frame rate advantages on the side of PS4.

The difference between multiplats was big but usually not bigger than it is now between PS4 and One. Such resolution Or/and framerate + some  graphics advantages are already something significant as well, multiplats pretty much always look better on PS4 . ( Just Cause and Splinter Cell were extrem exceptions with huge differences , we dont know what's coming on PS4/X1 this generation, such an extrem difference could be possible on few games too, if BF4 is not enough )

and if you mean that the most beautiful PS2 exclusive didnt look as good as the most beautiful xbox exclusive, maybe but this generation just started, we'll see what naughty dog/ready at dawn/santa monica have to say on PS4.

Rip in rip next gen consoles. Deep down inside I'm thinking these are launch window titles. On the other hand I think the XB1 and PS4 architecture is much easier to develop for than last generation.

Bingo, you're downplaying the extreme examples. Just Cause and Splinter Cell looked amazing on the Xbox compared to the PS2. Call of Duty 3 on the Xbox had four player split screen while the PS2 version didn't offer any split screen. Furthermore, the PS2 doesn't have exclusives visually at par with the best looking Xbox exclusives. Even at launch the Xbox was doing graphics the PS2 couldn't replicate because PS2 simply lacked features Xbox had.

I'll give you this, we're early in the generation and maybe PS4 might do some amazing things down the road. But I'm predicting we will not see examples as extreme as we saw with PS2 vs Xbox.

Being easy to develope for is not a bad thing pertaining to large improvments over the life of the console. If anything it will help make those improvments easier. The ability to get code running quicker, and put together a working concept really fast allows devs to try new things, and get things working on a basic level really fast. Instead of banging their heads aginst the wall just trying to make the game run, they can spend more time trying out new gameplay mechanics, and optimizing AI, physics, LOD, etc.

I'm not downplaying anything, i'm stating those rare games with huge differences were exception and not rule.

i'm predicting X1 wont have exclusives at par with most impressive PS4 exclusives on this generation, surely not a bold prediction.

Jesus. this topic gets manipulated so much it hurts. IF this game was a last generation game with a few next gen flares thrown in for good measure (Tombraider or Forza 5 for instance) then YES, you would expect it to run at 1080p/60fps. But it's NOT. This is a game built from the ground up for a next gen system and as such has intensive next gen demands. Stop just judging everything on resolution and framerate alone, it's ridiculous. The ONLY reason those two topics are relevant is when deciding which console is more powerful.

I expect games on ps4 to be 1080p @ 60fps because of the "powah"

If not then it clearly isn't that powerful over the competition as most seem to claim

its a choice,their using the extra power for graphic effects/soft physics,... to give a understandable example of its power,if this same exact game,same character models/physics/lighting/resolution ect was made on the x1,it might run at 10fps. get it now?

Battlefield 4 ? Ghost ? Killer Instinct ? Ryse ? AC4 ?
