That's because Castle Crashers doesn't have good graphics.

The graphics are great for a 2D side scrolling beat'em up.

under what logic were those graphics bad? they were some of the cleanest visuals in any xbox 360 game.

no pixalation, perfect at all resolutions.

once again, STYLED graphics don't make graphics bad.

next you're gonna say Okami has bad graphics

In the immortal words of Joe Rybicki; "Dear Okami I have never played you and I probably never will. So long, sucker."

Anyway, maybe Civ actually means that he doesn't like the artstyle. Personally, I don't like the way Castle Crashers looks either. On the other hand, I love the way Braid looks.

"Bad graphics" is certainly the wrong way of describing his feelings, but you're arguing semantics.

Okami was a wicked awesome game

What he said.

Graphics are images. Resolution is only one aspect of an image. When I say graphics are bad, I'm not necessarily saying it looks pixelated. Quite the opposite.

it looks like something straight out of Illustrator. However, what program do you guys use for sigs? Photoshop, of course. Why? Because the outcome is much cooler, much more appealing.

Vector images have as perfect resolution as possible, but that does not make them better than standard bitmap images.

It's supposed to look that way Civ. Like someone just drew it.

but thats not graphic quality, thats graphic style.

I use illustrator when I want a more classic comic look to it.

Saying Castle Crashers has bad graphics because you don't like cartoons is like saying Crysis has bad graphics because you don't like reality.

Which is why he's saying that the style is what he doesn't like.
