Honestly. When I was young, I'd get games to see the new effects and lighting... now I just watch the demoscene releases on pouet.net and see the effects 2-4 years before everyone else. Or I code and make them better in my own demos! I can't watch the same effect for more than 30 seconds without getting bored, anyway. I don't want to pay someone huge cash for a crappy doom game just to see the same effects I got for free with fx composer, rendermonkey, and the dxsdk samples, and saw ages ago in a 64k Conspiracy or Fairlight demo.
Give me a team of coder/designers dedicated to solving the very non-trivial problem of _creating a fun experience_. Would Rogue be more fun with an expensive DVD of high res textures, animated models, and 30 second load times whenever you changed rooms?

It's a statement IV have been making for many years and yet you only just realise it now?
I've known it for years too, it was just a joke! I mean I am learning HLSL but you need that even to make darwinias graphics properly.
