Artistic styles

-Photo Realistic-
These games are realistic and accurate to human standards. Good photo realistic games will incorporate reflections and good realistic shadows.
Here is an example of the game operation flashpoint.


(Non Photo Realistic)

-Cell Shading-
These games are cartoon based and use a lot of lines and geometric shapes just like in cartoons.
Here is an example of the ps2 game Cell Damage.


-Abstract-
Abstract games do not stive to be realistic and are very graphically abstract.
Games that are different and don't fall into the other categories genrally fall into the abstract catergory.
This example is the game limbo. This game shows a very strong abstract style.



-Exaggerate-
Anime drawing style usually fits into this category. Features in this style of game are exagerated for example; the size of the characters eyes.
This example is Naruto Generations. The style of the game is close to the actual anime series graphics.
