Yeah i think what people interpret graphics as being are different and there in lies the problem. As was said above. Graphics definitly add to the experience. I wont however play a game if its not fun but nice to look at. Thats the argument ive never understood. People quite often say they dont matter but im not sure what they are actually saying.
Its all a matter of opinion. What people consider good graphics could very well be a sprite based game. What others consider good gameplay might be turn based rpgs with a story while others consider a scrolling shooter as good. And both sides just to make things interesting will argue that they are right and the other persons game is repetitive.

Thats what i mean by graphics. You said wow doesnt push things technicly but artisticly looks nicer than eq hence it has good graphics. Or atmosphere. Whit knight story is another good example. Art and animation making a good graphical game that looks like crap as soon as it stops moving.
How did this conversation start anyway.
Does anyone here play new games with old school graphics that arnt on a portable?
