O MY GOD THOSE TREE"S ARE AWESOME!!!
I've been waiting sooooo long to see REAL leaves instead of crappy random textures!

Yeah, me too. The first game that left me in awe with my chin on the ground was FarCry. This was almost a real world, nothing was even near at the time. Games really become better! No degradation, if you ask me.

Better graphics-->more realistic worlds-->deeper immersion-->better games
And then if you mention gameplay, it is better and better in the long perspective. Games become less linear. Those that are linear give more things to gaze at. I see only improvements and I will never believe that the game industry (PC or console) will ever die.
