This is just a dumb statement you made....because Halo 3 looks great....as did Bioshock and Gears....Hour of Victory looked like crap....as did Lair.....they looked really stupid and had stupid concepts behind them.

Lairs graphics looked amazing and proved to be the only good point of the game. So screenshots were the saving grace for the it. Even videos showed the broken lock on mechanic and controls.

It is true that screens should not get people excited about games. The graphics in Lair do look good, but if the gameplay isn't worth checking out, then those screens are really nothing but pretty pictures after all. Aside from that, there is also the issue if the game looks the same as the screens hyped about in the first place. A lot of games todayare being shown to have outstanding graphics, only to end uplookin nothing like the screens shown during their previewing. Overall, wait for the game to be released and find out if it's good.

Killzone is another great examplehummer700

Be sure to tell that to everyone that hyped SMG, SSBB, and MP3 with screens. Teufelhuhn

The only time I see hyped screens with the big 3 specifically saying the graphics are good. SSBB is hyped because SSBM was one of the best mp games last gen even with all of it's flaws and still many people play it in 2007 when it was released in 2001, which Halo and Halo 2 have only lasted a few years with replayability. SMG is hyped because people have seen gameplay vids and it looks like it sticks to the true Mario Platforming spirit and not just adding a stupid watergun gimmick(sunshine was still an awesome game) MP3 was hyped mainly due to controls, sheep just boast how the graphics are good for the wii being in low power.
