Personally, I hope this puts an end to companies spending millions of dollars on graphics and then barely even giving any consideration to gameplay. Here's a game with graphics that are pretty dated comparatively speaking, but has been selling really well and developed a considerable following. So maybe now major game studios will sit up and take notice that while graphics are nice, gameplay is more important. Without the gameplay, you may as well just be making a CGI movie.
