With regards to the general discussion of graphics, I believe effects (such as the warping effect used for Giygas' animation) are important, as they can help basic graphic engines set moods and tones far better than without. Another example of this was in Final Fantasy VI, when the airship was...

Pardon me, but Earthbound's graphics aren't crap. The battle backgrounds are actually very nicely made, since they have a cool "kaleidoscope" effect. Also, I'm pretty sure the Giygas animations are considerably well-animated; it wasn't every day that you saw that magnitude of image warping on...

I think this video should offer some interesting points on the discussion: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/extra-credits/3201-Graphics-vs-Aesthetics On a side note, I'm utterly shocked that this duplicate thread has lived so long without someone pointing out the existence of the...

I think this is the third thread regarding this issue. Please visit this thread that I posted quite a while ago to get the thoughts of myself and several others.

I feel as though you are trying to grab attention, but I apologize if this is false. I will admit, Ocarina of Time doesn't deserve all the praise it gets. However, flat-out calling Ocarina of Time crappy without much to say about it is kind of... boring. You didn't really say why it was crappy...

These are the two requirements I usually have for graphics: 1. Intelligible- I have to be able to know what I'm looking at. This is a rule often broken by 3rd party Atari 2600 games, very rarely nowadays. 2. Not in the Uncanny Valley- As much as I say how good graphics look isn't important, if...

Ah yes. silly me. But don't forget the third person ones like WWII Paratroopers.

Here's an idea for a game that would appeal to them: A game where you would just play as an ordinary, grey, levitating block flying through different landscapes to admire them and whatnot (grassland like the one from Twilight Princess, a Star System like Metroid Prime, a forest maze like...

So you're one of those people who has a community with people who vote graphics over gameplay? I think I should be grateful I have friends who accept my retro age video game obssession.

Mario should indeed stay cartoony and not have cheesy RPGs *cough*marioandluigi*cough*. Zelda needs the graphics to build drama but I think in TP I think alot of it was hideous *cough*midnazantandooccoo*cough*. I think all games for Wii have something good in them. Even though I only use it...

Thats not entirely true. Personally, I find Halo 3 as a better game than Punch-Out, Mega Man, and Kid Icarus. But that doesn't mean the Mario and Donkey Kong Country trilogy aren't as good. I'd play those games over Halo 3 any day.

One time when my friend was telling me about a new Xmen game or whatever, he told me the graphics were the best of all time. The next day I thought to myself: Do graphics really matter that much? I mean come on. Graphics don't enhance gameplay that much. Although if graphics were so bad that...
