Reviews - Should Graphics Effect The Score?

[Bodhesatva]

Just for the record, I think the argument Hyruken states right at the beginning -- movies are not like games and shouldn't be compared to them in general -- is the best argument. That is reasonable.

Of course, it's funny to see some people (not all, I'm not naming anyone here) who desperately want games to be like movies suddenly dislike the comparison when it turns against them.

"We want epic stories! Big production values! Video games will be the new entertainment medium of the 21st century!"

"What's that? Graphics shouldn't matter, because special effects don't matter in film? Movies aren't like games!"
