so your saying that if a game has really good story and gameplay, yet crappy graphics, it'll be a bad game? I've seen Super nintendo games that have better gameplay than most of these new games out. Like I say all the time, Graphics mean little except to the Fad gamers.

Graphics are for X-Box fanatics. :yawn:

If I want good graphics, I'll watch a movie. If I want to have fun, I'll play a game.

Plus,I like cartoony or "cheesy" looking video games--the give the air of fantasy. Games today are getting too realistic graphically for my tastes, which is why cell-shading appeals to me.

in general I dont care about looks of a game but yes some times in games like BattleFront 1 and 2 it will help fans like me in to the Star Wars unverse :w00t: but give me a NES and a few good games and Ill be happy

Some of the greatest games ever were the old Nintendo Mario games. You know what they used for graphics? Sprites. Bad graphics, but good gameplay. Great games! Graphics matter not. ^_^

I like... i mean LOVE a good story. Brave Fencer Musashi is so much better then Samurai Legend Musashi, the game play was decent, the story was poor (sorry Square!) and the ending lacked the satisfaction i got with BF. Well i guess a better example would be, why do people read books? They have a good story. But its just words! But then again some people are dumb and dont know what they are doing so, get lost X-box fans :P

I don't really worry about graphics.
Gameplay is what matters, I will play a NES looking game if its fun
Runescape for example is a great game considering it a java but
people blast it for bad graphics which look a little PSone

I take offence in that, just because you go for the power supperior system which can play other system's games(yeah thats a plus with the xbox) does not in any way mean that the person is "dumb" Look at Bill Gates for example, I am pretty sure that if he ever plays a console that it would be X-Box and he is far from "dumb" He is probably one of the smartest people alive right now.

no, no, no. he is one of the smartest people alive when it comes to COMPUTERS. i dont think he is overall a genius, maybe math too, but i doubt he knows anything about science. like steven hawkings, i think is one of the smartest people alive

wen i play a game if it has a good storyline and good gameplay then i couldnt care less about the graphics, unless it made the game hard to play.

if the game looked good but had sucky gameplay then i wouldnt play it.

first off, non-xbox games play, IMO, less good on the xbox ( PS2 games for instance ), so form e that's far from a plus.

also, as said above, bill gates is one helluva smart guy on computer technologies, but there's plenty of things he knows no mullet about, i'm sure of that.
also, i dont really think he plays XBox, or any console. then again, one of the kiddo's of a nintendo high-guy prefers the PS2 over the GameCube, so who knows?
anyway thats not really important right now.

BUT i do agree that calling someone dumb because he plays on the most powerfull console is stupid. yes, without a doubt there's people playing the XB for its graphics, but i believe most play it for the games/gameplay/story etc.

I agree, graphics don't matter. Some games were amazing, like Superman 64, but the gameplay was... wait, Superman 64 was awesome!
