I've never heard of the first Sherlock Holmes game let alone any others. When was it released?

For all practical purposes, no I didn't
I used the word important 4 times in 2 sentances. And I'm hoping to get a B in GCSE English. Hmm.
Anyway, to summarise, gameplay is much more important than graphics, but a game having a graphics engine is still important, however there are exceptions to this, like Uplink. And nobody tell me that did have a graphics engine, because I know it did. I'm just making a point OK?.
I think this post will be ignored even more than my others.

What?? Graphics are very important? Graphics are just eye candy mate, yes they are slighty important but not very important. You could have one of the best looking adventure games in the world but if the gameplay was the game would be a failure and the developer who made the game would be a laughing stock for making a cartoon/film instead of a game.

1 in 3 of my responses are either someone insulting me or someone telling me they don't know what I'm talking about.
