I think the new Zelda could be cool. That actually looks like a cartoon from what I've seen so far (not much). On the other hand, this and games like Jet Set Radio Future hurt my eyes (seriously). It's less cell shading, and more boring textures and shitty lighting. (I hate the gameplay in JSRF as well, especially the way you automatically grind, often not in the direction you were facing or wanting to go at all, and the way you jump for so long with so little control. Gah. Horrid game and screw all you people for recommending it to me. :-))

I think it looks great. I love this cel-shading look. I know it's not totally the same look in comparison to the environment but it reminds me of some cartoons where the backgrounds are uber-detailed and the characters are cartoony. It also reminds me of a lot of manga that I used to read.
