Games design week 3

Gaming Visual Style's

This week I want you to look at various visual styles

What is visual style of a game?

Have you noticed how Max Payne and GTA games are very similar? Even though they are different genre's

Well they are made using the RAGE engine and they are the same type of gritty atmospheric type of game.

What is similar about Borderlands and World of Warcraft?

Work in small groups and discuss various styles?

Blog your results, focusing on styles.

So I would expect something like this :-

Cartoony Visual styles : Borderlands, World of Warcraft
Military Style : Call of Duty, Battlefield

ect.

Pick at least 10 Styles, you could just list 20 odd games then categories them by style.
