One thing about games that bothers me is that so many of them have such similar and uninspired art styles. I've been playing games for 20 plus years and I'd really love to see game developers exploring a wider range of artistic styles. Okami, Wind Waker, and Shadow of the Colossus are examples of games that really stand out because of their amazing art style.
So my question to the board is do you have any art styles that are your favorites, you feel are underused, or that haven't been used in a game at all but should be? Also, any specific artists you would love to see make games?
I'll start- I like to see a game that looks like an animated living stained glass window, and I'd love to see the head artist who's working on that new movie "9" as the art director for a game.
