Here is a gallery of screenshots for Gears of War: Ultimate Edition to catch the work done for the Xbox One version. Update2: Trailer and behind-the-scenes videos added.
^No they've screwed it up somehow.
Characters didn't look like this.
The new lighting and textures make this look more cartoony also which I really don't like. It isn't as true to the original game as I'd hoped. :( Which saddens me as I loved the original.
Marcus armor is supposed to look more metallic and glossy, the remake just have the wrong look in all areas. Very weird that it looks so underwhelming considering they apparantly have rebuilded it from scratch (that's what they said in a behind-the-scenes video). It has that matte, dull and almost celshaded-like vibe to it that also quite a few other games had the last couple of years. I Dont really like that trend, must have something to do with rendering systems/lighting model.
Battlefront is a example of how it should like on the new gen. It has a much more convincing look that to me is what 'nextgen' should be about.
Its not enough "moody" and dramatic in its visual feel... Reminds me of how Halo Anniversy turned out in some areas. It didn't capture the feel of the original game, changes in color, vegetation and lightning sometimes made it feel like something entirely different. Which isnt what a remake should be.

I'm older than 10 years old so luckily I don't really give a sh*t about "sides". I just play what's good.
I own both a PS4 and Xbox One and it you didn't notice I said I was a fan of Gears of War... But perhaps it's to much to ask for these days that someone that replies your comment actually have read it.
I just don't think it looks like it should, it's just as simple as that...
This looks amazing. Gears 1 really hasn't aged well so 1080p wasn't going to be enough but if these screenshots are indicative of the rest of the game then colour me impressed.
I was skeptical about GoW 1 remake, but it seems that it's not as good as I remember. However, I'm not convinced by the design decision of the remake though. I really liked the dark and serious tone of the original visual but this one threw them out.

I think it looks good. If you don't like it luckily you can play the original for your Xbox One now anyway :)
Personally I like the new look, I think the mood will still come across just fine like it did in Gears 2 and 3. Honestly if you just desaturate and crank up some contrast I bet you'd get the fidelity of the new hot stuff and the atmosphere you preferred from the original.
Disappointed it doesn't come to PC. No way I'm getting xbone, but I'll have to buy ps4 with the Last Guardian and Dreams and FF7RE announcements, it seems.
In the beta the characters and environments doesnt get lit by the weapon fire, which it already did in the original Gears. Really hope they fix this.
Sure might sound like a small detail but it would be really weird if it wasnt there, seems like quite basic stuff and as I said, it was there in the original game.
