Graphics are just a nice bonus really.
I mean I still play PS1 games now and again when the mood strikes me. Right now for example I'm replaying Legend of Dragoon, and the visuals don't bother me in the least. Great games are great, even if the visuals aren't amazing.
But I mean come on, if we have a choice between a great game, and that same great game with some better visuals or AI or whatever, cus there's some more power on hand, who doesn't want that? Doesn't mean we can't love games running on hardware that aren't at the bleeding edge of technology.
Real gamers aren't going to let specs stand in the way of getting games they think they'll enjoy, but that doesn't mean they can't appreciate having more power on hand either. I mean if power was irrelevant, we would never need any "next gen" systems at all would we.
