So Which games this gen have really good artstyle worth speaking of. The ones you enjoyed the most.

Well, there are the two main Nintendo ones, MP3, and SMG. Both have great ones.

And there are also two good PS3 ones. Infamous and Killzone 2. I enjoyed all of them.

While we are at it. Games with Horrible Artstyles.

One that comes to mind instantly is the conduit :?

I know i may get flamed for this one...but I didn't like the Borderlands artstyle too much either :x

So, Opinions? I know i left some out.

Ah geez. I think the best looking artstyles have been:

Muramasa: The Demon Blade (possibly my favourite artisticly speaking) Tales of Vesperia, Eternal Sonata & Lost Odyssey tied for first. Okami was on the Wii, even though it was released on the PS2 first, but Okami is also tied with first if it's counted as this gen. I'd rate Mass Effect up there for also. Fable II, Darksiders & Halo 3 are all others I'd rate pretty well also. I haven't played it, but LittleBigPlanet looks great also.

As for worst, I have to say I didn't like Borderlands too much. I thought it looked awesome from screenshots & on the back cover, but it just wasn't for me. MadWorld also, I like the originality but I don't think it's the best of ideas.

That's all I can think of so far.

I think the best art style I have honestly seen this gen is Street Fighter IV. How can everyone forget how incredible the art style was in that game? Worst games to...maybe Gears of War. Bland color scheme and horrid character designs.

Okami still stands out to me as some of the best artistic graphics of all time.

I cant think of any that I hate, but I really liked SFIV, Infamous and Killzone 2's art styles.
