What Does Graphics Give You?

[BreakABone]

Gonna agree with you on this.

Graphics sometimes are just as important as gameplay.

I would never put it on the same level because

If a game has decent graphics but great gameplay its enjoyable.

But a great looking game with decent gameplay is just not as compelling.

Granted a game with great graphics and great gameplay is most ideal.

The example you used is great as well. Reminded me of my friend when he got his 360.. his first OMG moment came when he was playing Kameo and he saw the horde of ogres and then realized it wasn't a cut scene but the fact that he could actually take on all of them at once.

I will be most interested in this gen though.

As Nintendo has seen to gone the route of absolute gameplay over graphics, while Sony and MS both seem to be on the course that we have been on for some time.
