I have always been about gameplay. I play some of the old atari and even nontendo games... paper boy and sonic 2 remain some of my favorite games... up there with chips challenge on Microsoft windows 98... that was replaced with mine sweeper... I feel they focus more on eye candy now then the story line... army of two is an prime example of that... the a when playing alone is worthless and sometimes tries to catch its own tail, not saying they all are that way... just more often then not anymore.
