Realism or an artistic look?

[J T]

The problem with some of the newer games is that the characters are getting closer to falling into the Uncanny valley.

I like realism for some games, but it really is something that is very hard to achieved. I think that something done with style will be better. The previously mentioned Wind Waker is a fantastic example of this. There is room for both, but something done with a strong artistic sense is ace.

Bah, silly poll. Gameplay is the key, 20 year old amiga classics cant be beaten, sooner todays games companies realise this the better.

I think they finally did with this current console generation. Why else would all three systems have downloadable gaming arcades? With many of the games on offer being old or updated classics.
