first off i would probably have to say yes straight away, especially in the way of animation and games. Games technology is in a constant race for "better graphics" this usually means the closest it get possibly get to realism. To me it has shortened the amount of original and individual games that are out there, it is the games that really take there artistic direction that appeal to me. Games like COD and battlefield and medal of honor are all first person shooters that hugely realise on using the latest engine to make it as realistic as possible, as well as other types of genres like racing games such as Grand tourismo, this game does not appeal to me at all, it is a true example of being obsessed with realism there is not an inch of this game where developers haven't tweaked to make it more realistic, it goes beyond graphics (although they are constantly being up dated) the cars are all real cars that have been modeled from the blue prints and the driving of each car is different depending on the real internal parts. It is games that come out to strike a different look that really impress me, and i think they can become a massive hit as well, it has been proven, but yet still all these games are from much smaller company's with much smaller budgets and usually end up being eaten up after they have produced this game that steps away from the realism race.
Games like little big planet, mirrors edge, and shadow of the colossus. These games have truly create art direction and to me, feel much more creative.
