I'm becoming convinced of HD gaming more and more

I have to say I disagree. I don't see why a game has to be HD to be enjoyed fully. Galaxy is still one of the greatest games this gen and would remain so till the end of the gen. I think developers stick to HD because it is much easier to sell pretty looks than quality gameplay. Also I have never had any problem reading anything on Wii. In fact I am pretty sure text in NES were completely readable.

However, I agree 100% that HD movies aren't what they were/are hailed to be.

 

Games that try to portray realism benefit from HD graphics and console power. Case in point COD4. There is a fanbase for such games too. I have a friend that I converted into gaming just because he though cod4 really looked like the war in Iraq.

Galaxy isn't like this. Would you consider COD:WaW Wii to be on par with the PS360 version?

I would cosign on the movie part but I was never a big movie fan anyway. I last went to the movie theater in 2006.

To be honest I was going to get this game if it got great reviews but would have done so on Wii rather than 360 simply because the Wii remote would make it a much more enjoyeable experience than pretty graphics with a control pad.  I have been playing Fallout 3 and can't stand aiming with the controller (so use the VATS combat system as long as I have enough Action Points). And I downloaded the Left 4 dead demo and couldn't enjoy the game at all because of using a controller to aim. 

Okay I have gone somewhat off topic.  COD: WaW with PS360 graphics and Wii control would be much better than what COD with Wii graphics so on that basis I agree that graphics can make game better.  I just don't agree with those who can't enjoy a game unless it is on a HD console as if before this gen no good game existed.
