Normally, we can't expect consoles to be at their greatest at launch because developers need to learn about how the hardware works.
But this generation is different. Consoles are more PC-like than ever; we have x86 processors, unified sysyem RAM, and AMD's "traditional" CPU architecture (none of that module nonsense).
Since developers have very little to "learn" from these sets of hardware, so there is little to no untapped potential that developers can "unleash" when these consoles start to show their age.
Now, when you see consoles having to go sub 1080p just to get 60fps, this is extremely worrying. The main reason why these next gen consoles were made is because devs were complaining that the console's old hardware was holding them back from doing anything new. |

| It's not that worrying. Consoles are becoming more like PCs so we can expect better ports. |

I have a first-model PS3.
That runs Black Ops 1 and Metal Gear Rising at least 60fps. But that's probably because my ancient TV can't support 1080p, only 480p, 720p, and 1080i. |

@rampage
true but most developers make their $ on consoles because it has more people on it. for some reason, developers still make their games on console first, so if console games on the next generation hit a wall in the next few years, PC gaming will then again be stunted by consoles.
@anojan
MK7 runs on an stretched out 240p screen. with that being said, ANYTHING that is kicked down to such a low resolution will run at 60fps
