But what I'm trying to say is that if the game does give me awesome gameplay, then I too will overlook any graphical shortcomings.

I just won't pretend that a graphical improvement wouldn't enhance my enjoyment. However, that's a very generalised comment. Good graphics is relative to each game, and what the game is trying to do. Take Animal Crossing, for example - by my usual standards, it's got terrible visuals, but they actually suit the gameplay and do their intended purpose. So, in this respect, the graphics are good. Same goes for the old 2D NES games. Putting Super Mario Bros. into snazzy 3D would ruin it completely, which is why there was a similarly large gameplay overhaul when the jump to 3D was made in Mario 64.

not really for me, give me awesome gameplay and i can play whatever. I'm more concerned with the camera system than the graphics of a game.

But ah well we all have different opinions, each to their own as they say

I still enjoy the old NES and GBA games as much as I would any other, purely because they've got the gameplay right and the graphics actually do their job (2D suits and looks good with that play style).

Obviously, graphics aren't important as the likes of gameplay and a fluid control and camera system, but they're still a factor in how good a game is.

Out of all those games, the only one that sounds remotely decent is that diseagea game, which, like most RPG's are, sounds cool.

You can convet enemies over to your way of thinking.

Penny-Arcade educated me in the ways of the game...

I can honestly say visuals are not a big part of my decision in my game buying. But then again i am weird, i prefer Disgaea's visuals over FFX-2 and i preferred the sprites of final fantasy tactics to the 'real life' visuals of FF8.

Obviously if a game is unplayable because of really bad graphics and camera system then that would put me off, but visuals are way down on the list of important things for me.

But then again i have been gaming since the days of the spectrum and commodore 64 so as long as it has more than 20 colours and is in 3d i'm ecstatic hehe :-D
