I do kinda agree with one thing. Cel shading rules! I want to see the Wii doing that(I loooooooove the look of that anime footbal game), cause I hate realistic looking 3d characters, especially if they purposely anatomically correct humans. Even with the PS3 and the 360, I'm not so hot about. They are bordering on creepy and awkward, especially now that they are more "realistic". Uncanny Valley ftl!
I agree about disliking intentionally photo-realistic graphics: always looks bad (the technology just isn't there yet). But this doesn't mean every game has to look like a cartoon: even something like Gears of War is stylized enough that it isn't bothersome (compared to something like Oblivion that's hard to look at because of the uncanny valley). RE4 also had enough intentional stylization to look really nice, Twilight Princess has even more.
