I believe the first game was Jet Set Radio, though I'm pretty sure there must be a couple of unrecognised groundbreakers to do it in some extent before that. I get the feeling that Cell Shading is the trick everyone in the industry will want to try and milk. In a minute it will be overused and tired... Its curious how comic book style in games is becoming big about the time that the movie industry is trudging their way through all the superhero characters... Spiderman, Hulk, Daredevil, Xmen... Fantastic 4 are next on the cards I believe... BTW... Why does your text highlight backwards? I find it very disconverting, as I highlight text as I read it...

And no, I wouldn't be suprised if people starting picking up on cell shading either - and as you rightly say, nothing stays new for long. Yes, there are a lot of superheros in the movies at the moment.... not to mention graphic novels....lets see, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (which they WRECKED!), Hell Boy is coming up soon, and lets think of another one.... The Matrix. I'm sure there are others too. I'm not quite sure what you mean by the highlighting thing and so don't know why it does it or if I can stop it.... *ponders* The games you mention aren’t really what I was getting at – ie they don’t look like someone drew them in pen and then coloured them in….

Not in a comments box. That works fine. Aye, from what I’ve seen of it XIII is a little special, but still, Its a variation on the theme that is “the comic book look”

Try and highlight some text on your screen using IE… Not in a comments box. That works fine.
