What style do you like?

I am curious what style/look you guys like best in a game of the type I am working on in class at the moment.
It's a side scrolling shooter, gonna have some cool effects I am working on, but I am still in the coding part at the moment. It's another shockwave game I am doing.
The type is familiar, the screen scrolls sideways, enemies pop up, or come out from the side as the camera moves along. You shoot them, or they shoot you. I haven't got a setting or anything yet, I originally wanted to be on a boat or something, problem with that is someone referenced my idea to some sort of Gun Boat game based on Kerry's "adventures"(or lack-there-of
). Either way, I am contmplating having a graphics style that the majority like, plus I figured some of you might dig being part of the dicision making in my game.
So I basically have a couple ideas I am willing to do - due to time restraints. I can't make a "realistic" look which would either require me to model and render out several objects, or worse yet, using screenshots... I am an original type of guy so I want to keep away from using other peoples work, even if this is just a student project.
It could be the "old skool" 8bit graphics of the Nintendo days, with pixelated graphics. I could even use Vector art graphics, which would mean that the game is resolution independent, allowing me to have a window or fullscreen mode whichever you choose.
Send your ideas, I still have some time before I need to make the final decision. Either way, the game should be fun.
And so you know my other peices of work, my game, the world I was working on, etc... are still being worked on, but my school stuff if numero uno on my list to get done, I will not be taking this class a 4th time.

You must fend off the enemy until rescue comes to pull you out of the hot zone. You are currently in a fortified position with an arsenal for any possible tanks or aircraft amoung the enemy soldiers.
