This is where games try to look as real as possible and usually contains human characters.
They look as realistic as possible with shadow and lighting effects, and highly detailed surroundings.
Famous games in this art style include Call of Duty and Battlefield. Photo realism has only just started to appear in the games industry as companies have began to use more advanced technology in creating games.
This is a style where all objects in the game are surrounded by black outlines and are sometimes also cartoony. They look cartoony and all objects are outlined in black, they also are mostly quite simple looking.
Famous games in these styles are Borderlands and Afro Samurai.
Exaggeration
This is a style where characters are sometimes not humans and maybe have exaggerated eyes or ears, or other parts, and sometimes stupidly large weapons and shields. These often look cartoony and are popular with Japanese anime games. Examples of these games are Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Quest.
Abstraction
This is where shapes and characters in games are strange in shape and colours and never resemble humans.
They look like no other shape seen before they are unique and it is sometimes hard to make out what they are. One famous abstract game is World of Goo.
