SO what do you mean exactly? Are you referring to games with cartoon graphics, or physics, or what? Because The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker on the Game Cube has luscious graphics.

Well off the top of my head, there's the downright superb "Sheep, Dog 'n' Wolf" by Infogrames. It was released for the PC, the PSone and the Dreamcast a few years ago, and it's like "Warner Bros. does Metal Gear Solid". Very fun stuff.

Trackmania Nations Forever (just out of beta) is quite good. Racing with swoopy physics, and bright, shiny cars. Well worth the download.

I downright AGREE with Sheep Dog 'n' Wolf; one of the best games I ever played. It even had secret levels. And a secret secret final level.

PS1, surprise, the game's old. If you are going to check how an old game is with the graphics... That's not how it's done.

I checked it out too, and for the time, the graphics where not bad. Also, the jokes and stuff was great, so it seems like a good game overall... Didn't play it though.

Anyways, Mercury meltdown is quite good too. It's about controlling a mercury drop, moving the scenary, and it's quite fun... and frustrating at times. On the PSP, and the Wii. The Wii one is by tilting the controller, and is, in my opinion, more interesting.

Bleh, the gore in TF2 is so over the top it's not real in the slightest. "Your liver" springs to mind.

Team Fortress 2?

Didn't the dev commentary actually say that was what the style was based off, though? They gave a specific artist which I can't recall.

It is. And it's also the single greatest use of Warner Bros licensed property for a game ever.

I loved everything about that game; the elaborate plans, and the way that some levels (like level 3) were completable in other ways than the normal one. Also, items could be used in loads of ways. I have fond memories of catapulting sheep with elastic, and then bungee-jumping with cabbages to get another one and avoid having my head beaten off of my shoulders.

"IGN rated the game an 8.0 out of 10, citing an impressive story mode, addition of naval units, mostly intuitive controls, and fun online modes. Sticking points included that Kuju failed to capitalize on or misused Wii's control enhancements, the inability to play through the single-player campaign in online cooperative mode, and the lack of voice chat. GameSpot gave it a 7.5 out of 10 for drastically improved pacing in campaign, a decent attempt at online play, and excellent production values. Its downsides were the strategy is still "lite", is overly simple, and the artificial intelligence and story is overly simple.[15] Official Nintendo Magazine (UK) gave the game 90%, criticizing the lack of a "retreat" command and the occasionally fiddly controls, but commending the graphics and strong online mode[16]. Game Informer gave the game a 7.25.[17]" -Wikipedia

It's a real-time tactics game. In other words, it's a real-time strategy game, but without the buildings and unit construction parts.
