It's all those things together. A leap so huge that it just leaves you stunned. Gears of war was my moment last gen. Metroid Prime the gen before. Haven't seen it yet this gen though.

im holding hopes for witcher 3. 

I am just hoping that The Witcher 3 isn't overhyped like Destiny was.

its still a character being moved by actions of my thumb and pressing buttons.  2d 3d fps whatever no matter what it looks like on tv its still at the end of the day that same thing as decades past to me.

congratulations, you are complaining about gaming as a media form not changing and remaining gaming by not eliminating the process of interactivity with the hardware through buttons, regardless of how that input effects the game its self or how its played. 

might as well criticize movies for being videos that we just watch, we were able to watch movies 3 decades ago normally. nothing has changed in that medium since then too, obviously. 


Not complaining, just accepting reality not kidding my self with some lols gameplay innovation pr talk.  

Not really it hasent, you seem to have trouble accepting things . Does it scare you some how to say its been more or less the same thing for a long time.

highly doubt it. This is an established franchise. And the developers are good people in my book!

yes i am pissing my pants with fear.

your logic, or lack of logic, is quite outstanding. if  gaming "evolved" into something where there is no interactivity with the game its self, it ceases to be a game. what you are saying is that you want gaming to stop being gaming, but still call it gaming, when its not. then you go on and throw these ludicrous attempts at trying to be antagonist trying to provoke a reaction, when in reality your posts have no substance, truth or meaning.

controlling something in a virtual world is the concept behind video games, if it stops being that, it stops being a game. saying that gameplay hasnt improved because games are still games, is hilariously wrong, and by far the most unreasonable thing i heard on this site since i got here, and trust me, i heard A LOT of unreasonable things on this site. 



So far I'm seeing bigger worlds and better graphics. Other than that i haven't seen anything innovative to gaming just remasters and sequels to a series.

I'm not even sure why this is a question.

"Next gen", as it pertains to gaming, simply refers whatever happens to be the new console generation, of any given time. Anything else is just semantics.



Pretty much bigger worlds, more graphics/more things on screen. That's basically what I expect but I like surprises.



Graphics, Improved Gameplay and more Immersivity.



Quite honestly, it comes down to betta grfxxx. Developers aren't limited in terms of gameplay by the Hardware anymore. They can Pretty much do everything they want. So all they really can do is pump up dem shiny graphics. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Fan of new ideas and Stuff. But all of those would be perfectly possible on last-gen consoles.
