haha exactly, the guy must be blind, or talking out of his ass.

i agree with this, though "stylize" is often confused by developers, by dumbing down the game for the casual audience.

I would buy that!

The industry is just shooting itself in the foot by constantly refering to how great the HD graphics are in their games.
Soon people will see sub par graphics and not even give the gameplay a chance.

And gameplay is what it's all about.

It's actually the increased cost that is the shooting, not people just not giving the gameplay a chance. Nintendo has shown people do care about the gameplay, and it was the increased need for graphics over gameplay that drove them away.

Edit ; Double post =[ . OT; I agree to a certain extent. Wii games generally look better if realism is ignored (Read cartoony)

I prefer stylized graphics to realistic ones.

But that defeats the purpose of graphics in video games. The purpose is to convey the atmosphere, setting, and central themes of a game in visual format. If you create the graphical style separate from that of the original purpose, then you just have a game that feels misplaced... which is the case for a lot of Wii games. It's funny how Wii is supposed to be the system where you can expand your creativity and ideas, yet developers seem to be trying to do the exact opposite in limiting themselves.

I disaagree, the faults of counduit were glitches, and realistic games look good
