They use a couple of colors and pass it off as next gen graphics as seen in MGS4, Gears, and Killzone. On top of that some games add in a bloom filter to make the rough edges not so apparent. Is it really next gen when a game like Gears or MGS4 uses a handful of primary colors for the majority of the game?

If it was filled with lush, green, trees, pretty pink flowers, colorful environments, and all that kind of stuff, it just wouldn't suit the game. mysticgohan Posted at 2:40 pm on Aug. 22, 2008 So realism = Brown+Bloom and not a full spectrum of colors.
