With the graphic capabilities and possibilities today?
Hell yeah it matters.
Newer games should have better graphics. What I'm saying is that if it's not realistic looking, they won't play it. That knocks out a whole lot of innovative games.
Also, Legos don't hurt when I step on them I've gotten so used to stepping on them. I've been doing it since I was 3. :D What I do hate is never being able to find the right piece. Then the moment you stop looking, you find like 3 of them. >:(
