Marginally so. The improvement is enough to leave me s.at least somewhat satisfied. Is it eight years of technological improvement? No, so my satisfaction is very minimal. However, I think we can hope to see some mindblowingly realistic-looking games coming out in a couple of years from now.
I disagree. I'm not interested in seeing anymore realism in games. I mean it's great, but when I saw Crysis 3 it didn't ooh and aah me like with some other people. Creative visual appearance is more what I look for. Not saying realism is not that, but there's so many of with that sort of look that it feels like there is a lack of change. There's a million games that try to look realistic and two that look like they're made of yarn. That's just my opinion though, cause I know half the planet disagrees with me and they're probably more right.

Plus, how is navigating to Netflix any slower on a console than it would be on a TV? If anything I would expect it to almost be faster, as you wouldn't even need a controller, nor would you have to use a clunky TV remote to navigate through one of those horrible, clunky satellite operating systems.
I guess you have a point, but I still remain to doubt that people really want this so badly. Think about it: Did people who were really looking forward to the XBox One reveal want to find out more about the graphical abilities? Yes. Some awesome games for the console? Yes. The controller, overall look etc? Yes. The nine billionth way to watch a movie while they're browsing for the latest Die Hard on PirateBay? No. Well, maybe some, but when it comes to a console the TV options are not a major interest and trying to bring attention to that at a valuable reveal is a dumb move.
