Just look at the contrast in details- the hair and the skin and the wrinkles all look so realistic in the image above, and the one below seems almost cartoony by comparison. Each and every freckle on his skin looks detailed, while the image below clearly is much less remarkable. Source: http://www.zbrushcentral.com/showthread.php?166136-Zbrush-Render-BPR-Fibermesh

If you take the graphics of current gen games like, say, Uncharted and Mass Effect and compare them with the best looking previous gen games like Resident Evil 4, you’ll realize what a drastic jump the visuals department has taken over the years. It may not have been apparent as time went by, but now that you look back at it, you realize just how much graphics in games have improved. And while many of us believe that next-gen games won’t look significantly, we think that as time goes by, we’ll realize that, yet again, games have taken a huge leap as a visual medium. Below we have two images that show how big the jump between current gen games and next gen games could be, in terms of visuals. It’s all hypothetical, of course, but you should still have a look at it.
