It's lucky for Sony that some people are more interested in the aesthetic side of gaming.

i disagree completely.

sony builds and markets these type of products because they KNOW there are people more interested in the aesthetic side of gaming. they could cater to the needs of another market if that was where the money was. luck has nothing to do with it.

No, no... it's luck

And Nintendo's lucky that some people will still buy NEW games for OLD graphics and gameplay.

If you want an old game, buy an old game.

There is a bit of luck involved, but it's not soley based on luck.

Perfect Stu · 01-23-2005, 07:21 PM

there is no luck involved.

they dont just piss into the wind and hope the wind blows the right way...companies like Sony and Nintendo know what they're doing before they release a product.

as for HOW good the product does...some luck is involved, I GUESS...but it almost always stems from product quality and marketing, and effective R&D

All I know is I'd much rather see Grand Theft Auto PSP then Grand Theft Auto DS. After looking at those Need For Speed DS graphics.....bleh.

and i garentee you that every single person that bought thoes games, woulda absolutly loved it that much more had it had beautiful graphics. Anyone who denies that is BS'ing themselves.

and i also garentee scores the games recieved woulda been higher.

a bad game with good graphics is still a bad game.

a good game with bad graphics is still a good game.

a good game with good graphics is a better game.

People always kid themselves when they say graphics mean nothing. graphics mean a LOT.

Or good gameplay.

Because it is a game, after all.
