LIST THREADS ARE BAD. THIS IS NOT A LIST THREAD. POST SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL.
Persona 5 has the snazziest UI and aesthetics I've probably EVER seen in a game. If you took a shot every time a review called the game "stylish," you'd probably die.
I think it's the only game where I've felt amazed just walking down the street, or looking at a classroom, simply because of how the camera angles and lighting are designed to make everything look so flashy.
Are there any other games that come close to P5's style? What other games have cohesive visual design, great UI, a unique soundtrack, or an overall sense of "cool" to them?
My answer is Sonic. The Sonic franchise in general has generally sold itself on style. Sonic is "cool" and Sonic is "fast," and each game builds on this overall concept in a way that bleeds through into the gameplay and presentation. I think my favorite example of this is the Adventure series' soundtracks, which took a unique, "hip" approach that still stands out to this day. Sure, it may have been a sort of "faux-hipness," in a way that was sort of like that one Steve Buscemi gif,
but even despite this it managed to transcend that fact and be unironically memorable in its own way. I still remember Pumpkin Hill very vividly, and it's not because it was a well designed or memorable level. It's because of Hunnid-P's rap music.
Edit: Guess it's cool to hate on Sonic. I still stand by the statement that it defines the franchise, though.
