This thread has been linked to the game 'The Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker'.
I played on the wind waker last night for a little bit and it struck me how camp Link looks and acts when cell shaded. The colours make him look like a small fat version of Hey Arnold. Also he runs and tiptoes around like a damn fairy - cell shading has killed the looks of the game I recon. If you check out the back of the game cover you see the wind waker graphics on the left and the ocarina of time graphics on the right - the graphics on hte right are far superiour and make Link look a bit less gay (even in the picture where he is playing the ocarina/eating a blue taco).
However the gold coloured disc and bonus disc are nice touches and the storyline and gameplay seems excellent so far. I honestly recon the graphics don't work but maybe cell shading is the way of the future. At the risk of sounding like a whiney old man, I shall flee now and prepare to be manhunted by all you Nintys.

I think they are better.

Well you look like a knob but we don't complain.
'Recon' has an entirely different meaning to the way you were using it.
:-P
And who cares what the graphics look like as long as the game is good?

I also think the graphics are miles better, the quality of the facial expressions is breathtaking.
I think there great graphics.

Obviously taken VERY much to heart. What a friggin' gimp dude, Link is an animated character you have to need to defend him!

You're right, I have been too quick to judge.
You may be visually impaired, or just stupid.

That is ture but I think the backdrops aren't as good as the ocarina of time.

ok, for the millionth time zelda ww isnt cel shaded, its a new technique called 'toonrendering',
cel shading is where you have a cellm 9object) which has a black border marking the outlline of a cell, and it is shaded in, thus its cell shaded, zelda ww doesnt have black borders and uses toon rendering to allow greater movement and expressions, etc, etc, and the phrase toon rendering is what nintendo are officially calling the grpahics, ok, so its not cel shaded,
