30 bullshots per minute

DigitalFoundry has posted an extremely worthwhile article about the age-old Bullshot debate.

The bottom line is that some crazy fools out there might argue that the purpose of a screenshot or a movie is to actually show you how the game actually looks, as opposed to how it might look if you were running it on a PC, with ultra-level settings and an unplayable frame-rate. There’s also the fact that going to the trouble of creating all of these enhancements takes time and presumably money: surely both would be better spent on developing the game?

Does anyone still remember the uproar when Tiberian Sun came out, looking nothing like the screenshots? Well, I do. Because I am old. Old’ish. But so is your mom and that doesn’t stop you from loving her, now does it?
