only thing im wondering about.. is if the whole game is cartoony.....

i thought perfect dark was supposed to have that dark feeling to it? Can a cartoonish looking game give you that same feeling?

Gamespot also posted a story stating it would look like this..

Anyway, yes, thats my main concern. The old J.D., while maybe not as pretty, what a little less anime and a little more edge. That cold feeling of the realistic one from the demo a few years back is really what made the chachter to me...

I find it funny that Nintendo fans are complaining about a game looking "too cartoony". Oh what a tangled web we weave...

What is that suppose to mean? PD is not really SUPPOSE to be cartoony. At least, I would have less expectaions.

Unlike games such as Zelda, which probably wount change much no matter how you put it...

What its supposed to mean is that Nintendo fans are now trying to find anything to complain about when it comes to Rare games in a futile effort to convince themselves that they won't miss Rare as a developer.

I won't even quote the numerous examples of this that are on this thread and on this entire site. Its become quite obvious and my BS meter has broken because of it.

Thats what that means.

Yeah, and Zelda had plenty of bright colors and cartoony looks on N64...

IMO, neither game is kiddy, neither game is supposed to be bright or Cartoony. I jumped on Zelda's back when I saw videos of it in action... just like I will jump on PD's back if the whole game is cartooned down.

I doubt it will be that bad though, Joanna will be younger, yes, meaning she will need a new design. But I doubt the whole game will turn cartoonish. Even it it were, I'd stil buy it, just like I'm still going to buy Zelda.

I hafta agree...

I wish GT never had those forum resets (2)... I would just search for the word Rare, and see how opinions have changed... Hell, I tried it, and I found more then enough examples to make a thread bashing the peeps who suddenly started to hate Rare...

I won't do that though, to save GT from any more drama, but if this Rare bashing continues there isn't much of a choice.

For all we know, the rest of the game might look fairly realistic... I mean at least it's not gonna be as cartoony as Zelda on NGC... which, BTW, Nintendo fans said was "NOT SUPPOZED TO BE CARTOONIE!11!" when it was first revealed, now it seems like a majority has accepted it and thinks it looks nice (It is some dern good cel-shadin', lemme tell you ^-^ )...

As for Perfect Dark... it's not SUPPOSED to not be cartoony and realistic... I mean, look at Elvis... he looked/sounded like something you'd see in some kind of cartoon

But yeah uhh... I could see how a slight cartoon touch could not be a negative thing for PD... although I think if they ever made it something like Zelda (which I doubt they will ) that could be kinda... weird...

Ok I know, I'll just search through a bunch of forums to find the topics where people said certain things and point them out, and each time someone does something like that, I'll search for when they said what I think they said before...

Would you like to help me do this?

I doubt it...

When people say "Nintendo fans" normally they mean the people who DID say what they said...

If I meant ALL Nintendo fans, I'd say ALL Nintendo fans...

Because some Nintendo fans DID say that...

Should I put some in front of Nintendo fans everytime I use it? Does it even matter? Can't you figure out what I mean on your own?

I used the "Nintendo Fans" generalization because I have seen more Nintendo Fans than not acting in the immature way i described. So I'll amend it to "most Nintendo Fans". Happy?

people like GameKinG shouldn't even be in the XBox forum, because they couldn't care less about it. he obviously came here to put down Perfect Dark in some way or another, which is easy to do now that it's on the XBox...I'm sure all Nintendo fans would "fall in love" with the new look, just like almost all did with Zelda's new look if the game was for Gamecube.

I wish I was wrong...but that's what I see

Hey! I was just about to say that... I guess there is no need to now though.

How do you know it was not 'supposed' to be cartoony?

I still stick with my point. I really do think that the Perfect Dark franchise is messed up because of this decission. I mean, Perfect Dark was amazing (to me, anyways) because the graphics were amazing, and everybody looked life-like. There is no doubt in my mind that the online multiplayer will be AMAZING, but I don't like this whole cartoony thing. And when I played PD for N64, I thought it was sweet because it was like I was an agent in the future and stuff... I just can't see that bringing me the same feeling as a cartoon.
