@Spartan_418 @Smokescreened84 GTA has some of the most bland gameplay on the planet.


Those games are 12 year old sheltered pre-teen fantasies and nothing else. They are the gaming equivalent of Twilight and Justin Bieber.

@awhite33 The answer is consolitis... their games pre-console (e.g. pre-Crysis 2) were between good and great. Far Cry was epic.

@StickyJr1 Yerli isn't saying "will", he's saying "can"

@faceless-mask Yerli is not saying better graphics make a better game. Yerli is saying that better graphics enables better games.

People miss that because they're so overly fixated on the 60% number

@-TheFlyer- Bioshock is an aesthetically great looking game, but we are not talking about aesthetics. We're talking technical graphics, and neither Bioshock is impressive technically except by like 2006 standards.

@MalakTawus No, your bad grammar is pathetic.

Anyways, nobody is talking about aesthetics, and if you knew how to read, you would have seen below that I already posted about that.

What I'm talking about is that all Yerli is saying is that better graphics raise the ceiling for what can be accomplished in game immersion, which enables potentially better games. This is true, and all gamers implicitly know this - you need look no further than the reaction to tech demos etc for proof.


The only thing that was dumb was his 60% figure, and again if you knew how to read you would have seen that I addressed that below as well. His point is valid and nearly everyone agrees with it by their actions, even if their comments on this article say otherwise.

@kvan33 most games look great if your standards were set back in 2006....

@faceless-mask @The_Beanster Those are part of the "technical assets" Yerli speaks of which drive immersion.

@StickyJr1 @The_Beanster But why does it "Wow!"? It does so because people envision playing games with more realistic, impressive graphics. They instinctively know that the better graphics can enable better gameplay experiences, which is all Yerli is pointing out.
