STEAM MACHINES and NX - Will Graphics still be a talking point?

Where have you been? PS4 and X1 were outperformed before they were even released. Steam machines will fail spectacularly since there is no market for them. Nx will be in the best case scenario slightly more powerful than PS4.
People will always talk about graphics and performance because it's an important factor. It's also the base marketing platform for any console.

So is this just your generic "I play games, not graphics and people who like performance are stupid PC elitists" thread?

So your saying you hated the PS2 and Wii because they were the weakest in there generation? Graphics doesnt sell consoles it never did, if you games last generation you would know this. Clever marketing and advertisments sells consoles.

The point i am making is since everyone is making a big deal about slight differences between XB1 and PS4, would it still be a talking point if the NX has the better looking 3rd party games and same with the Steam Machines which is a guarantee?

For the record i am a PC gamer yet i choose gameplay over visuals.
