Depends on the game. Arcade can be cartoony RPG I prefer fine art Racing I like realistic *Shudders at thought of realistic doodle jump*
Thank you for your feedback LostLegend. I appreciate it very much! other pls join in... take a poll. I'm making a game, so this will help.. also for other developers too.
My game is kinda arcade-ish. a character moving around and shooting stuffs that is also moving around... (cant reveal much).. the basic engine is done.. now is the hard part - ie, graphics and levels design. sometimes i wish i can clone myself... sigh
Like everyone has probably said here, it would depend on the game but if I had to pick on o would have to go with realisitic.
