Bethesda - People that say that graphics don't matter are lying

“There’s a lot of people who say graphics don’t matter. To them I usually say ‘you’re lying’. [People] will look at a screenshot and make a snap decision: ‘that looks awesome’, or ‘I’m not interested’. So if you can make something look amazing just at first glance, it’s so much easier to get them.” - Bethesda’s VP of Marketing, Pete Hines

Just last week, I went out to GameStop to reserve Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12. When I was asked what platform I wanted it for, I said Wii. The clerk laughed and asked why I didn’t want it on PS3 because of the graphics. I told them that graphics didn’t matter to me…and I actually meant it! I wonder if Mr. Hines would believe that.
