Fellow sodaheads and my friends on here i already asked a friend on here on her opinion about video games a spare question i asked on here just for her now i like to ask all of you as well and if you don't mind can you give me your honest opinions thanks this maybe or maybe not it's the next round about video games or to go with the question i asked about PS1 games.

The question is why do some people only care about graphics in video games and why they either hate or dislikes the classics even when and if they are obsolete and yes including PlayStation 1 games/PlayStation 2 games?

I ask because they say/or they act like ooooo graphics is so fucking awesome i love it even if the game is awful and when and if the fact the game is any good then that's OK for you to say you love it if it have good graphics or not and if you disagree with homestar92 on youtube i understand and i have to say i agree with him and his quote said"good graphics don't make a good games" and yes i do have a youtube account as well.

And yes don't worry i do have different favorite games of different game systems and different all time favorite games of different game systems if you want examples don't hesitate to ask and yes I'm including PS1/PS2,NES,SNES,Nintendo64 to name just a few and some of the games i use to have and i wish i still have them and others i still have/or i don't have yet.

this part is more like a bonus if you wish to answer it but am i only one who feels this way about those classics? If you want to know in my opinion those games are awesome like one of the examples and it's still one of my favorites Super Mario Brothers and Super Mario Brothers 2 and i think my dad still love them like i do.

Anyway thanks for reading this yeah i know it's more like a rant of how i felt but i just like to ask your honest opinions thanks and if you want you can tease me or think I'm weird for my taste in video games that's OK with me i will allow it :).
You!

    I personally don't know anyone in real life who has ever said that graphics make the game. Now, graphics may look good, and help you immerse yourself into the experience, but the moment bad gameplay or bad story shows up, the immersion is gone. In my opinion, graphics are the least important part of a game. The two things I look for in games I play is how good the gameplay is, and how good the story is. If the gameplay is bad, but the story is good, I can forgive it and keep playing. Same goes if the story is bad, but the gameplay is good. Anyway, that's my take on it.

    People are so ensorcelled by graphics these days its frustrating. Hood graphics will never make a good game. hell, most of the junk released is now 6 hours of eye-candy that is used to cover over bland game-play and inferior storytelling.

    I agree with you. the older games had more passion and love poured into them. it made each of them feel special and unique. i could spend hundreds of hours on a PlayStation RPG or a Nintendo platformer and still want more. these days i can play a xbox/ps3 game for 4 hours and feel the need to sell what i just bought. the gaming industry is not what it once was...

    may i ask you a couple questions?
    1.is it normal for me being nervous about my dream job like i told you and do you think i can find myself a gamer girlfriend in her 20's and older?
    and 2. do you think i have what it takes if i go for my dream job?

    1. it is normal to be nervous. i would say go into computer sciences if possible, i heard that there is a shortage of people with that expertise and too many programmers about.
    1.1. yes you can get a gf.
    2. that is all up to you.

Fun
