Why does Halo 2 look worse than Halo 1? The shadows. Or well, the lack of them (www.youtube.com)

Halo 4 only looks good if the only thing you care about is how quickly your GPU can fry an egg. The art style is ugly, none of the levels are lit in a way that makes any sense, and the new designs look dumb.

There is nothing good about Halo 4, including the graphics.

Halo 4 had great graphics to run on a damn Xbox 360. But yeah, they lost in the design department, imo I felt too much felt like plastic/artificial instead.

A lot of over-designed armour and equipment, too. Especially in multiplayer.

Agreed. High res is not the same thing as good graphics. The Halo 1 remaster is another great example of that; the og graphics look SO much better
