OMG graphics. Just look at that uncanny valley.

Game designers and gamers alike need to quit obsessing over "realistic" graphics, and start focusing more on great art design and more importantly, great gameplay.

In a sports simulator? That could work

Well for one, it would be an interesting route to take for a sports game. But no, I was speaking generally. Of course you want certain kinds of games to have "realisitc" graphics. I was commenting more on the all-around obsession people seem to have with "realistic" graphics in general, as a litmus test for what "good graphics" are these days. Quite frankly, the best looking games last gen had their own unique art style, at least as far as I'm concerned.
