There equally important. Its either graphics or gameplay. Games with both are so rare that well you have a larger chance to get struk by lighting 5 times in a day. (While not trying to be stuck by lighting)

I had many messages about how gameplay is better than graphic.So i came to a idea

There is a thread that has been tackling (If you can call it that) this issue. I'd suggest reading that and weighing your opinion there.

Is there any reason not to chose both. A better question is if you were in charge of production with limited time/resource to chose normal gameplay and decent graphics or vice versa which would you chose?

I agree with this guy.....so I'm either going with both or not voting. Personally, I think Gameplay is the primary, but Graphics are very important for many games when it comes to Atmosphere.

Gameplay all the way.

That's what's implied by the question. Wouldn't make much of a title if it was a full paragraph, would it?

Graphics don't make good games. Gameplay does.

Depends. I prefer both as although gameplay is important yes if its super super crappy looking its hard to play for me. And I am talking in modern obviously games like Starcraft and aoe2 are exceptions. But if an RTS game was made with those graphics today I doubt I would even give it a shot. But in all honesty I think everyone has graphics in some regard not just "pure gameplay" as they say.
