Does anyone else think CoH2 is a piece of art?

I guess it depends on the person, but I don't buy games to stare at them and admire how pretty they are, I buy them for the game play and to blow shit up. Game play is taking a back seat to new graphics benchmarking in many cases. Even with simpler graphics and effects, vCOH was and still is very pretty, but that's not why people have played it for so many years. It's because the game play is awesome. COH2 is obviously "prettier" but nowhere near as fun to play. (an opinion... yes, but shared by a fair number)
The only way I can actually stand to play COH2 is to turn the settings all to low, lest I find myself spending half the game searching the screen for the units right in front of me, this seems to help, as well as with performance.
To address the topic title... If you are looking for a piece of art, I suggest hanging a picture on the wall or putting some nice piece on display. Keep games fun to play, nobody plays with art in any other circumstance.

It's been my opinion that most games today, especially the higher profile ones, focus way too much on how pretty they are. They put so much focus and effort into the graphics I find that it is starting to take away from the game itself.

Obviously the game needs to be fun, but for me, I like to be immersed in the game, so having a beautiful and realistic looking game helps that immersion.
