Another game goes down the drain...

Yep. House of the Dead. From its gruesome and detailed graphics to this cel-shaded junk. Cel-shaded is the way to go right? :rolleyes:



A flashback. Who in their right mind would prefer the cel-shaded pos?

Maybe Panzer will go the cel-shaded route too. :laughing:

God that is awful looking. I mean, that is just really really bad. What the hell is up with this Cel-shading trend?
Er, excuse me, how much for one of those, uh, prophylactics?..........But I don\'t have a dollar and thirty-five cents!

I think it looks cool.  IMO, that bottom picture looks like trash compared to the top pic.  But the important question is, how does it play?

some cell shaded games are cool, like Jet Grind Radio but I agree that it simply doesn\'t fit this game at all...

It looks cleaner, but it isnt even scary

They are making two game of house of the dead, one is the cel-shaded look, and the other one follows the movie that is being made, so i think that will be more like HoTD2, which i have to say is one of my fav game, my DC got so much use with that game.
On the 15 of March 2002, i was going to leave these forums for good.
But on the 16 of March i realised i couldn\'t ever say bye to you guys, so i am staying here for good!

Ssshh.. Datamage is right here. Cell shading should have a purpose. It should be done for a legit reason, now this games gets as scary as a scooby doo episode:rolleyes:
Devs wanna make fast cash and think they can get away with it by just throwing in a default plugin visual effect like cell shading.
Miyamoto is right about the new Zelda game, in that it goes back to its roots by the cell shading, but this move on House of the Dead is just a crime !
Come on Sega, you don\'t wanna loose you\'re innovative rep would you ? This is just slackin\'.

I didn\'t know this was supposed to be a scary game.  If that\'s the case, then cel shading was a bad choice by the developers.  But it still could be a very fun arcade shooting game.

Hmm.. The cel-shading looks good, but it lost the "scarriness" and "horror" feel to it. Now it looks like cool evil characters walking retarded.

Well the game has lost the whole scary appeal bye going cel-shaded. So why should I play this one?
