Eh...
As excited as I am about where games are going to go graphically, that's... All I really care about. For me, that's all it has going for it. And maybe the social stuff but I've found online has become less social over the years and more of a few people trying to have genuine fun being shouted at by elitists with no aspect of what a "game" is, or whiny 8 year olds who think they're elitists.
If games are heading towards download and stream only, completely getting rid of discs then no thanks. My current internet at Uni has a limit on who much I can use per month. Other people also have this problem, or even no internet at all. Must always be online and must stream? No. Despite everyone being worried over discs being obsolete, it won't happen. Some people like a hard copy and some people simply can't download them. Not to mention you'd have to have a pretty big hard drive to hold them all, which means paying out more on more hard drives. Looking at the record of the current gen, it's pretty poor.
Only reason I'd have for getting next gen consoles is maybe some of the exclusives. But... That's pretty much all I'd buy either of them for. So... Yeah.

Consoles are sharply going downhill. The Xbox Live service was once good and is now terrible and the PS4 just doesn't really... feel like that much, other than "LOOK WHAT WE CAN DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO".
Personally losing interest in games to be honest, and this is coming from a game artist-to-be. Mostly because it's becoming movies that let you decide when the character shoots rather than a game designed for play, where you can sit down with friends, mess about, change the rules up a bit and generally just have fun. I didn't spend £40 to walk down corridors.
