People don't bitch about how Monopoly looks like a piece of shit, they bitch about how somebody always gets Boardwalk before them. Why? Because GAMEPLAY is what matters in a game, not GRAPHICS.

is not enhanced by having some of the most gorgeous graphics ever seen in a game? What kind of person says graphics don't matter, when every major studio spends millions of dollars - often more than 50% of the budget - on graphics? Probably the kind of person who knows nothing about games!
Also I like how you magically transform "bad graphics annoy me" in to "OMG I ONLY CARE ABOUT GRAPHICS". That's some serious reducto ad absurdum!
Why can't a game have good graphics and good gameplay? OH WAIT IT CAN. So stop needlessly defending a game that has shit graphics just because "OMG GOOD GAMES NEED TO LOOK LIKE FESTERING SHIT".
Your argument makes 0 sense on multiple levels, so maybe next time you won't flame without thinking.
