I admit, gameplay will always be great in certain games but some nice eyecandy and huge advances in hyper realism never hurt.

The graphics for Crysis for the consoles still look top notch.
Computer graphics will always be better than consoles, but that is the beauty of consoles, they last 6+ years for $400.
id's new engine employs something which makes one level have 1 giant texture or something. It is quite cool.
Valve really needs a new engine, the graphics for L4D and L4D2 are pretty mediocre, like really mediocre. My guess is that the new engine will come out with Half-Life 3.
