nutrient batteries and jet set radio
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 cell shaded video games but that
doesn’t give you the right to abuse that
for this list we’re looking at some of
the best games that used cell shading
features with priority given to games
that used it technically and
artistically well I remember you kid you
should read and what an interesting
point miss your flesh stick number 10:13
first on our countdown is this
overlooked first-person shooter 13 is
about an amnesiac man with a Roman
numeral 13 tattoo who’s trying to
unravel a conspiracy over the
assassination of the president a crime
that he’s been accused of the game is
presented like a moving comic book
cutscenes are set up in a series of
moving and shifting comic panels with
sound effects written across the screen
yes I will continue the work that my
brother William started even the
gameplay is littered with this writing
from the tap-tap-tap of the enemy
footsteps in stealth missions to the BAM
when you fire a weapon number 9
beautiful Joe hey baby
after his girlfriend Sylvia is kidnapped
during a movie date ordinary film gorgeo
is thrown into movie land where he
becomes beautiful Joe a Japanese
tokusatsu inspired hero with the power
of beautiful effects this flashy ability
plays on common film camera tricks like
speed ups slow down and low sucks
Joe uses these powers to beat up bad
guys across a variety of sets like a
medieval castle and onboard a battleship
no matter where the action takes place
it’s sure to be stylish number 8 No More
Heroes 2 desperate struggle who doesn’t
want their own lightsaber
I mean beam katana you’re something else
modeled after Southern California Santa
destroy is home to sandy beaches
beautiful vistas and dangerous assassins
as Travis touchdown you’ll spill the
blood of a lot of wild and wacky
personalities while attempting to regain
your status as the number one assassin
in the world against 50 other assassins
it’ll be your blood this time when I
avenge my brother draw just about every
enemy you’ll face goes out in a torrent
of red your rivals are so memorable that
you almost feel bad for offing them hmm
almost number 7 crackdown
if there was ever a game that made you
feel like you were a comic-book
superhero aside from a certain Batman
franchise we choose not to mention
crackdown would be it as the agent a
biologically enhanced super cop you’ll
leap across the scenic Pacific City with
ease
crackdown gives you the freedom to do
whatever you want when you want just as
long as what you want involves driving
jumping shooting or generally kicking
the crap out of stuff but as anyone
who’s ever played it will tell you
you’ll probably spend most of your time
hunting down all those ores number six
slide to band of thieves honestly any of
the Sly James in the original Sly Cooper
series could have easily earned a spot
on this list in the second game slides
lifelong buds Bentley and Murray get to
join in the action as the three pull off
a series of daring heists in this semi
open-world stealth platformer the
Knights work so where do we go from here
your next job is to break into the
nightclub and take some reconnaissance
photos of the clockwork tail feathers
everything in these games is bursting
with color and personality it’s like
playing a Saturday morning cartoon
there are a multitude of dastardly
villains to take down but you can be
sure that this thieving Dream Team has
got you covered
what Dimitri plans to do with the
clockwork part is beyond me but those
plans in tonight
number 5 Borderlands 2 you want to hear
about loot that’s it explosions this
game is as stylish as it is insane and
it’s pretty darn insane
Borderlands 2 takes its predecessor’s
comic-book style and greatly expands
upon it you can explore a wide variety
of locales gleefully blasting man and
monster alike Borderlands cast of
characters are just as wild as the
visuals from a gentlemanly hunter with
metal limbs to a 13 year old pyromaniac
this game is anything but boring
these finance women’s could stop that
train for us but I’m gonna need their
badonkadonk first and they got stoled by
the bandits a few days ago did somebody
say office echo frequency you protein
guzzling buffoon number four Jet Set
Radio ha yes known as jet grind radio in
North America this game is the one we
have to thank for making this list
possible originally released on the Sega
Dreamcast Jet Set Radio sets you in a
fictional version of Tokyo as one of
many Rudy’s young people with a penchant
for rollerblading and for feet
we’re Tokyo’s biggest baddest Buccaneers
we’re just set radio with a colorful
city to explore and even more colorful
characters to do it with tagging the
city is a total blast as long as you
don’t get beat up by those trigger-happy
cops
yeah
number three The Walking Dead Season one
definitely the most serious game on this
list The Walking Dead sets up a gritty
harsh world where most things just want
to eat you alive or leave you with
nothing to further the firm aroma splice
emulating the look of the popular comic
book series you play as Lee Everett a
recent convict who bands together with a
young girl named Clementine what should
we do now over the course of five
chapters you’ll fight for survival
against Walker’s starvation and even
your fellow man you have a gun so can I
borrow it
number two The Legend of Zelda the Wind
Waker
when this game was first revealed it
stirred up a lot of controversy from
fans wanting something similar to
ocarina of time but most of that
criticism was laid to rest when the game
actually came out the Wind Waker is a
beautiful looking game
its vast oceanic world is littered with
countless colorful characters and
strange exciting locations to explore
and the voyage on the great sea really
sets up this game as one of the best in
the series before we unveil our topic
here are a few honorable mentions
number one Oh Connie taking the top spot
on our list is this absolutely gorgeous
adventure
inspired by Japanese watercolor
paintings academies Nippon offers
several stunning vibrant landscapes and
as the goddess amaterasu you have the
ability to paint the world yourself you
can create powerful gusts of wind spa
cherry bombs and restore life to dying
trees with a vibrant art style that
makes the best use of cell shading we’ve
ever seen there could be no question as
to why okami is our pick for the number
one seller did game do you agree with
our list what cell shaded games do you
think deserve dimension there’s no way
