The Greyest thing I have Ever Seen.
April 23, 2010
Colors they're wonderful things, they brighten up the world and make scenary that much more vibrant. However a new trend in video games has taken away the color and replaced it with browns and greys. Apparently this kind of coloring scheme makes thing look "gritty and realistic." I buy the gritty part, muct dirt is brown or grey, but I'm pretty sure most of the things in this world are in color.
One game series in particularly come to mind whhen I think about this trend, and that's the Gears of War franchise. Recently a trailer for the third installment of the game has been realised and I must say it is the greyest thing I have ever seen. > This is however a trailer for a game still in development, so maybe they'll add some color at the last minute, but giving the other two games in the series, I kind of doubt it.
On a sside note concerning the comic, I said I wasn't going to do something a few weeks ago, but it just worked into the joke so well I had to.
