Depth of gameplay however is the real issue. When it can't even compete with a QMB from a decade ago, it really makes you wonder.

Agreed - the gameplay/meat needs to be present (and it isnt). However those who completely dismiss graphics are foolish because you need a believable world to fly in or it removes the immersion.
