I'd prefer Elasto Mania at any time...

But to stay on topic, i think graphics are far overrated... of curse it's cool, but i don't really need a really cool-looking oildrum if it just stays there, frozen to the ground (exaggerated, i know)... No need to say I'm looking more forward to hl2

But anyway, my point is that there seem to have been a very narrow focus on the graphics up through the development of computergames. I mean, it's not like i dislike cool graphics, but i just think playability, physics, intelligence, and depth are things so much more important to a computergame...

but then, it probably would be boring to play counter-strike in 2d... but if they'd spend the time on ai instead, I'm sure the bots would have been awesome

Heaven must surely be a dull place. This calls for an extraordinary mix of psychology and extreme violence! Last edited by Exilibur; 04-08-2004 at 22:27..
