I've been saying that since 1998.

Anyway, EA used to make some of my all-time favorite games ("Jungle Strike" on the Genesis, anybody?) I'd like them to get back to doing what they used to do so well, but they've become a juggernaut. And it's pretty hard to switch directions if you've got that much weight behind you, even if it turns out you're heading towards a landmine.

And the fact that it still holds true, in a time where 1080p quality is the basic, and we often see full HD games these days, it just proves that Graphics =/= Quality of the game.

The graphics just need the bare minimum to look like they should, and convey what they need to. There's no point in animating the fucking body hair of a basketball player. That's not impressive. That's a massive waste of time and resources.
