Graphics: Style Over Substance

Once upon a time, (nice original start there, maybe I should copyright it) back when I was just a wee whippersnapper, all rosy cheeks and runny nose, there was one defining rule that encompassed my video game experience, one truly solid and unshakable fact that I knew would always be so……Graphics are God.

i'll pick gameplay and story over graphics anyday

If you keep saying that then whats the point of next gen

Assassin Nawabi5515d ago

well next gen is necessary for the gaming evolution overall... it can mean like multiple enemies on screen, 60fps fluid gaming or even better, 100s of things going on screen at one time etc. otherwise if next gen only means evolution of graphics then all games on launch of next gen consoles should get perfect scores from sites which apparently has never been the case

RedDead5515d ago

I would prefere to have decent graphics and great everything else. Last gen I was a kid, when I thought of next gen I thought blu ray meant bigger games with more stuff in them. Not just better graphics. I would prefare more games like Warhawk than linear great looking games(these are dominant atm)

Indeed. People always make it sound as if you can have only one but not the other.

Butt0n_m4sher5515d ago

game play is more important and games are not at the level i thought they would be for this time... well, maybe a few of them are but not in general

iamgoatman5515d ago

Got to remember that games cost a fortune to make these days, and some developers simply can't afford to spend that extra time and money just to make their game a bit prettier.

Butt0n_m4sher5515d ago (Edited 5515d ago )

i dont know if you know it or not, but you are essentially agreeing with me :-D

I am glad Naughty Dog consider themselves as artist foremost not video game designers...

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing20d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit20d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing20d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9220d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
