Why does graphics matter that much to you guys? Go watch a movie, you guys are no hardcore gamers. You're pathetic.

(This is directed to people who actually care about this comparison)

Graphics AND audio matter to me, because these are things that improve immersion in the experience.  The same goes for movies.  Even in the GDC 2009 presentations, they mention how these things change the immersion level in a game (whether you realize it or not).

Otherwise, we would STILL have Atari 2600s and there would be NO need to upgrade.  I think some gamers have forgotten why they purchase consoles every generation.  It's a shame, really.  A more powerful console can bring more elements into a game that's entertaining, which is the purpose of a game (to entertain), right.

Hardcore gamers should understand that.  Casual gamers may have a harder time understanding that point.  I guess I know where you stand.

 

 

I never said that graphics didn't matter. You're taking everything out of context... Both games look fine, I could care less that killzone 2 looks a little bit better. I like gears of war 2 more then killzone2 anyway... You know where I stand? Are you calling me a casual gamer? That's not even close to an insult to me, but I don't think lot's of casual gamers play games like Metroid...

Anyway, I don't think graphics can improve much more from this gen... A new revolution would be 3d gaming with 120 fps and stuff like that.
