Forget what I just wrote. I HOPE the graphics are halfassed, because the developers focused on make the rest of the game awesome (such as we're still getting 4 player local, and online). Then we will see once and for all if these kinds of games sell because of graphics or the other elements.

Pretty much every bestselling FPS has great graphics as well as good multiplayer (offline and online in latter generations). One without the other doesn't seem to work, although the multiplayer aspects are of course more important. Graphics serve as differentiation in a genre that suffers from oversaturation. If there are many similar games out there, gamers obviously flock to the better looking product, except if it doesn't play good.

No, content serves as a differentiation. Modern Warfare didn't set itself apart by its graphics. Ads for Gears barely showed any gameplay, and therefore graphics, but showed a soldier in a city ravaged by war. Those were games that offered awesome content, and gamers flocked to it.

That could also explain why Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories didn't sell as well compared to III and Vice City, since they didn't really offer any new content. Even though both games showed better texturing and performance than their predecessors.
