Overrated games

[pocaracas]

All three are proof that games have gotten shinier but not better, imo.

For me shiny is better in its own way. I love stepping out into a huge beautiful environment. It really helps the immersion when I don't have to squint to figure out what the hell somethings meant to be.

That said game-play matters too. I like both good game-play with good graphics. I'm not willing to give up completely for the other.

Yes, ok.... For huge beautiful environments, I'd go for games like Myst.
At the time, everything was pre-rendered.... which made it a bit limiting...but my mouth waters for what Myst could have been, had it been done nowadays!!
