Well not quite. Just been reading an article on Cube Europe about "Killer 7" which I never really heard nothing about. But it sounds so cool!
I remember Whitestripes creaming himself over this, I think I know why now: -
"Killer 7`s protagonist`s aim is to stop outbreaks of terrorism around the world. Named Harman Smith, the man`s mind is split into seven different personalities, and he`ll have to use the different abilities of each persona to 'take out' (in the Mafia sense, not the date sense) targets. Not skimping on story, Harman is on a mission of revenge for the killing of his beloved Suzy. Check out the press release for more.
SEVEN DEGREES OF PERSONALITIES COME TOGETHER TO FORM ONE ‘KILLER’ PRODUCT IN CAPCOM’S KILLER 7 FOR NINTENDO GAMECUBE
SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- July 11, 2003 -- Capcom Entertainment, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced new details on its stylized hard boiled action adventure Killer 7™ for the Nintendo™ GameCube. Featuring striking cel-shaded visuals, Killer 7 chronicles the connection between two men whose intertwined paths develop into a compelling tale of fate, revenge, and altering personas. Killer 7 propels players into the consciousness of one man, and his seven different personalities, in an effort to stop a wave of disconcerting indiscriminate terrorism that is plaguing the world. Killer 7 is scheduled to be released in 2004. The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) rating is pending.
In Killer 7, players take on the role of Harman Smith an unlikely assassin who lives life at his own pace. Switching between seven different personalities, he employs each character’s abilities to terminate targets he deems “deserving to die.” Years have passed and violence and instability have started to beleaguer developed nations. People with crazed and distorted smiles are appearing throughout the world. Anyone with this “Heaven’s Smile” becomes violent and begin attacking anyone within close proximity. Now these crazed soldiers have started to overthrow huge city governments and have even taken the life of Harman’s beloved Suzy. It is up to the player to utilize the special powers that dwell within Harman’s seven “partners” to assassinate Kun Lan, the powerful underworld kingpin behind it all.
Among the many features Killer 7 will deliver are:
Distinctive and visually stunning approach to cel shaded environments
Unique cast of playable characters – Each persona has different strengths, special abilities and powers that help Harman proceed through the game."
Sounds cool.

Who cares what it is really?
Cell shaded or toon rendering, either way it looks fantastic.

hm.. actually Killer 7 is toon rendered like Zelda. Cel shading is X13 and if you must *celdamage* plus jet set style.

Yes and it was made by a sh-t developer. We're talking Capcom and Ninendo here, there's a major difference.

Errrr shutup, what are you basing these views on?
Very little is actually known about how the game's gonna play.
Another case of TGM putting the old fot in th big mouth of his.

at least the rabbit is smart..
TGMbloke, Tiltawhirl has a point though. You said that most of the Gamecube's exclusive games are cel-shaded, and to be quite honest, with no offence intended here, that's crap. We've had Zelda, and that's about it. Cel Damage is far from a top title, and I don't think there have been any other cel-shaded games GC exclusive that've done very well.
Killer 7 looks incredible, and I just can't wait to see how it plays. If it has good controls and a decent plot, I can see it being a top game.
