But, the game's graphics can either lure or dispel wanting consumers. Think of it like a painting; a pretty picture can attract people. I sure as hell wouldn't buy a PS3 for games like Killzone 2, considering the graphics turn me off. I hate realistic looking games; they seriously turn me off. People prefer games with a modest and pleasant appeal.
Mass appeal =/= full potential sales appeal. If you are asking for a mass market price of $299, consider obtaining a console with stripped out parts (40 GB). The full-fledge console was the 60 GB, enough said.
Besides, pretty pictures are just like sugar-coating on games; the backbone has to be the physics and gameplay. Those games you listed may look awesome, but can have flaws. One example for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 was GTAIV. Plus over-glorifying games with being too realistic can turn people off. Afterall, video games were meant for fun, not for setting a standard. Video games are a hobby, not to be taken seriously. There's more to life than just games, and you prove that games are worth more than living, CrazzyMan.
