The art style makes the game look like it has terrible graphics.

Yeah that is thing that I question. I see what they are saying about a superhero game looking like a comic book but I think it was a bad idea. I think it looks kinda weak and goofy. Course that is the very thing that may appeal to others but it just doesn't do it for me.

Gameplay is key no doubt but I have to like the way it looks as well. Graphics whore? Well I guess... maybe. I know I played CoX for two years and really like the way that looked.

For me the problem with CoX wasn't the graphics, it was the art style. Everything just seemed so much dirtier than it was supposed to be. I was expecting at least a happy mood in some areas but it felt like I was "saving the world" for sweet nothing.

I'm waiting till I can see it in motion.. there are many times witht these kinds of art styles that screenshots don't do them justice at all... then you see it in actual motion and it makes all the difference.
