Exactly, so it'ld be almost 50/50.

Heh...actually reminds me:

When i saw Advent Children, i was seriously thinking it'ld be better as a videogame.

lol, I liked Xenosaga. It's just Xenosaga II made my love go stale. o_o

Oh, and go play FF Legends 3. It has AWESOME gameplay for a Gameboy game, but the story...

in the first xenosage, i've made it to the warehouse at the very beginning and couldnt bare to play it anymore

With all the cutscenes in that game, I still don't know how it's possible to complete it in 6 hours.

darkshadow2247 · 07-07-2006, 10:27 PM

can't you skip the cut scenes?

Hydra · 07-07-2006, 10:30 PM

Last I checked. Albedo is the coolest crap villian I've seen in a while.

That's about as basic as it gets.

Come on, when you think about how long video games have been around, the gamemakers have really made progress, but it seems they are trading excellent gameplay for cheap graphics. Don't get me wrong the cut scenes are a nice touch, but it was the gameplay and the plot lines that got me interested in a career in gamemaking.

I think most people who go on RPG (if not all) will vote gameplay over graphics. Although I get the feeling most people are into FFXIII becuase of the graphics - even before we knew a thing about it and we only had pictures some people I spoke with about it seemed a bit like "zomg diz will be dah best Final Fantasy evar!!!!!!111".

I agree

Most likely.

Anything with flashy graphics and horrible gameplay will get at least a seven on any major gaming book or site(Game Informer, PSM). It's weird. o_0

Gumdrop · 10-07-2006, 09:51 AM

It is weird. I noticed the only games my parents ever show an interest are the best graphicaly, I think there's something a bit hypnotic about good graphics to them and maybe it's the same for others. But really if your a serious gamer I would have thought gameplay would come first :s

Hydra · 10-07-2006, 10:08 AM

They think if it looks pretty, it's fun.

A lot of people disagree. XD

I sure do. With some games anyway.
