You could have the plot of the century, with so many twists and turns in the story that you would actually fucking at the end of the game, but if the graphics suck, no one will buy it.
We bought it when it was all we could buy back in the NES/SNES days...so why change our views just because graphics are "better" now.

These generations wish they could even remotly compare to the SNES era.
Back then thoose graphics were top-notch.

My point was you said...
"We bought it when it was all we could buy back in the NES/SNES days"

Thoose games were played becuase people felt they were awesome looking and amazing. It's the same as it is now-a-days.

Tom Savini is cooler than us.

I actually met the fucker at Universal studios. He puts on a show that runs once or twice a day each weekday down there. After the show my dad and i got to talk to him. He got into the business after doing stunts and seeing the really poor quality special effects of the old movie TV specials that both he and my dad used to watch. He's a really nice chap. I don't remember a whole lot about the conversation between him and my dad but i knew it was about those old shows.

Live in the now. Graphics are better now. Who the fuck (besides you) is going to buy a game with the graphics of pong, for reasons other than owning a retro novelty....?

Answer: No-one. No-one wants to play a piece of shit game with graphics that look like someone has put all of 5 minutes work into them, when they could be playing a realistic looking game with top of the line graphics that will amuse and amaze the eyes, as well as challenge the brain.

I didnt say the graphix mattered, I just said that it looked more like a dreamcast, an older system, than it did for the PS2.

American McGee > Romero. I find it hard to see both of them even wroking together now after the split up they had way back in the day. + Alice was a fucking fantastic game.

If no one is willing to play games with "poor" graphics...then why did the GBA and GBA SP outsell every home console?

You act like no body over the age of 10 would play it...I know more people who own handheld consoles than home consoles.

thats because parents will buy their 11 year old a GBA and he can walk around all day EVERYWHERE with his pokemon Fire red edition and be content all while only cost $100 bucks. Rather than ploping down 300 for a at home system.

annoy:

ex. My brother wants a PS2, my parents said no wait not spending that kinda money. But he did get a GBA sp.

Nobody over the age of 15 would play it. You only know more people who own handhelds because you hang around with under-15s....
