Never said that. While graphics do matter, I personally value solid gameplay over cutting edge graphics. I'd much rather play a deep game with subpar graphics, as I'll have a lot more fun than a game that looks great for 2 or 3 hours and then you're done. That's why when I read reviews that go on and on about how pretty or ugly a game looks, I usually just toss them aside as they're not that helpful to me.

ESPECIALLY when they are holding us back from the industry standard?
Twenty years....sheeshk...I'm feeling old. Anyways, I'm making the point that I remember when that was the best you were going to get with a game, so I guess my demands and expectations are lower than those of the graphics junkies.

I could never keep them from stealing Hen Wen, dammit...
