I like how pople hate Doom 3 and love half life two, and orgasm at Halo 2, When theyre all the same goddamn game.


Doom 3: I R PURDY!
HL2: NO I M PURDIER!11 LOL
H2: IM PURDY ND ON A KONSOL@@222#!!



Wanna know what? I loathe, and probably will not play any of those games. Why? Because 1, I loathe Fanboys, and 2, I loathe games whose claim to fame is looking pretty. Big fucking deal.

Edit: Silent Hill is scary. BUT ITS NOT AS PRETTI AS D00M@211!1
Red Faction was great on a console, and the only reason halo received any acclaim is because Xbox fanboys didnt have anything to latch onto at the time. Pretyt much the only ones anticipating it is People who suck and liked the PC version, and Xbox sluts.
Half Life 2 has a plot. Whopee. Congrats, sierra! Youve found out what every other game on the planet has managed to accomplish thus far! You get an award!

Unfortunatly, you cant generate hype and a decent self-perpetuating fanboy-based PR machine by saying something is fun. Youve gotta have cutting edge graphics, so cutting-edge the technology isnt even available for purchase yet, which is so stupid it boggles the mind. It insults the fan's intelligence, and assumes that we have the mentality of 5 year olds.

Sierra: Hey, look! its more running around and shooting things! BUT ITS SHINEY! OOOH, SO SHINEY! YOU WANT THE SHINEY?! ILL GIVE YOU THE SHINEY FOR 60$ AND AN ETERNITY OF WAITING!


Bullshit.

Bullshit.
So if they decide to give an already awesome game some really awesome graphics, they're all of a sudden assholes who insult our intelligence? Games are always evolving with technology, give it a year, and ALL games are going to look like that. Will that ALSO be insulting our intelligence, just because it looks good?

So, you've played the game?

As per the edited commentary, No. Its all relative. if games A-through-Y have the same type of graphical quality, than Game Z has graphics that kick the living shit out of anything ever seen before, and, they kick it around as Sierra has done with HL2, regarding features, then yes, that makes them an asshole.

If you can make a game thats ugly as fucking sin, but still fun as hell to play, Ill give you a gold star. If you have to divert a customers attention with shiney graphics, rendering them drooling while they blast things, before they are able to come to a fair and honest conclusion right off the bat, thats assholery.

You should be able to play through the game and say "Hey, that was fun" without the graphics skewing your point of view. NWN is a prime example of "Horrendously shitty graphics, incredibly fun to play"

Also, if you use graphics for the sake of something MORE than graphics, I am completely for it. An engine that allows mutable physiology depending on your punishment is excellent, and I applaud it. HL2, Halo 2, and Doom 3 all are pretty, for the sake of being pretty.
