Seriously?
There are a ton of games that lack graphical polish but offer very good gameplay
Best example Zelda Skyward Sword which got 10/10 from IGN and you can see the high meta-critic review rating. But while the game has some truely gorgeous art and even graphics are nice many times... the environments are sometimes just eye-sore terrible. Those crawl spaces are uglier than the worst looking game on N64.
Anyway
On the flip side, there are tons of games that focus entirely on graphics that are complete crap to play. Those Conduit games on the Wii and on the HD side you had games like Lair. There are a ton of such examples.
