I pose a question to you guys: Who really cares?

I mean, you act like the 360 is a powerhouse of a machine. From what i've seen, it isn't. If you don't have a high-definition TV, the visuals could be considered as lacklustre (for a next-gen system). Now before you brand me a fanboy. I've this to tell you: This is only the beginning of the next-generation. I expected as much, and I expect similar results from the PS3. At the end of the day, the Xbox's true potential has only been unlocked in the last year or so. The same will apply for the 360.

People on forum boards are continually getting into sparring matches over irrelevant numbers. Of course I care about how a game looks. But at the end of the day, you're forgetting the very purpose of gaming: Gameplay. Visuals should always be given a lower priority. Yet these threads continue to pop up frequently. Be happy with what you have, and stop creating "wars" between companies. It's prehistoric.
