...and shogun sucked,those dum ningas looked like gay peaces of paper...

Graphical content isn't necessary everything Ozzman - I have played quite a few older games recently, which have contained little more than 2D sprites. Despite this, they still have retained my interest for an as long, if not longer, period of time as some of the more modern and graphically rich games.

For me at least, graphical effects are a nice addition, but other factors, such as immersion, depth, AI and atmosphere, are much more important and can make or break the game itself. After all, in a game purely comprised of high-quality effects and eye-candy, once all the graphics have been seen, there is often nothing left to hold the interest of the player.

...and like 2 factions!

There was a lower number of factions in Shogun compared to the later games, as I remember it was a total of eight, but I found that it didn't really detract from the overall gameplay experience.
