1. Someone please post some art by this guy so we can see what his style is like
2. Someone clarify whether this is an X360 game that just doesn't look next-gen, or if it's an XBox game that is literally not a next-gen game.
There's some great artists out there. Oh! Great, Kentaro Miura, Eiichiro Oda, whatever. I'll take Takehiko Inoue against any of them. His first few volumes of Slam Dunk were merely well drawn, and his skill level has blown through the roof ever since.
You can see his work in the first twenty volumes of Vagabond, the story of Musashi Miyamoto, which is available in North America right now.
If somebody wants to post pictures to clarify, that's cool too.

They would have to be absolutely insane to work on a current gen XBox game. Their chances of making money are higher betting on the 360 than they are holding back to the current system.
