I don't think it really effected their final score but I think they are right. I don't care what a developer is going for, it doesn't look good compared to other arcade titles. That's fine, they even said that, it's like a true old school Mega Man game, and that is great. But it doesn't make it look any better when compared to other titles. You want them to give it a 10 in graphics because it looks just like a NES game? If they did that how would they rate all the other arcade games graphics scores, especially games that come out that are brand new? Should games like Castle Crashers be given a 10 in graphics because it looks better than Mega Man 9 or should it be given a low score because they weren't trying to make it look old school.
