For some games, even if they are bad, I am guilty to confess, that if the game is made and/or drawn in a certain way, the worlds visuals look pleasing with great or original artstyles, I may end up liking that game as a whole. Games like Tak, Okami, Sly Cooper, Dead To Rights, Borderlands, Jak and Daxter, Dark Cloud, Prince of Persia, Another World, Viewtiful Joe, The Tenchu games, Beyond Good and Evil, Blinx, Blood Money, etc. These are examples of many games where I feel the artstyle as a whole, or their take on an existing artstyle, grabs my attention and sucks me in. Making the game regardless of quality, seem to be a fitting experience. It puts you in the mood to explore or continue the story-line in a game without second though. What games have my fellow gamers played that had artstyles that really made you want to buy or play a game to the end and like the world it took place in? Maybe a combination of even both if it applies to you. Share your favorite games with deserving artstyles.

Favorite artistic design ever is in Majora's Mask.  LOVE the blend of realism and fantasy.  Others include Chrono Trigger, FFVI, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, Kirby: Nightmare in dreamland and some others.

"Heavy Metal F.A.K.K 2" I've had the game for ages and still haven't played that :PDudersaper

 

Graphically it's still good, but the gameplay has dated quite a lot. It's like old Tomb Raider; improved. But not as good as Crystal Dynamics Tomb Raider.

I really like all the settings of the levels, not sure how closely they follow the ideas of the comics but lots of imagination went into the world.

Some nice picks already(Guilty Gear, Jet Set Radio). I'll come back when I feel like posting pics since now a plain list will be lame.

Really like some of the choices above(Okami, Guilty Gear, Guild Wars, Psychonauts, Oddworld, etc.).

Odin Sphere:

Rogue Galaxy:

Final Fantasy 12:

There are a couple more I could list, but these are some notable ones for me.
