Yeah, funny how graphics are suddenly the only thing that matters now...

LMAO! This coming from the guy who was complaining about gimped ports just a few minutes ago.  Or is it not okay to gimp them on Nintendo consoles, but okay to gimp them on Sony consoles?  Think hard before you answer that.

Nice try, but that's not what I said. I don't think gimping is ever okay.

Let me ask you something; which system were you playing back when the PS2 was inferior hardware to the Xbox and Gamecube?

I'm sorry, is it 2001?  Nope, it's 2014.  I have a 1080p LCD TV, not a 480i CRT TV.  I want a console that actually makes use of that TV.  I also don't want companies to gimp games coming to my console, just cause the other console isn't quite up to snuff.  MS could definitely take a lesson from Sony on this, as they never got companies to reach for parity, even with a huge sales gap.  Of course, back then, a lot of games were only coming out on the PS2, so you had a much better library.  Now, the games library is almost identical, except for exclusives published by MS or Sony, so why not get the better looking ones?

And if you're going to ridicule a fanbase for liking graphics, as well as gameplay, why complain about gimped ports?  It's just graphics, after all.  The games still play the same.  Seems kinda like a double standard there.
