Remember the 'Xbox 360 Brown' era?

Hey guys, came across something interesting about gaming aesthetics and wanted to get your take. Apparently, there's talk about a potential comeback for the "Xbox 360 brown" visual style, you know, those gritty, desaturated colors from games like the original Gears of War that were everywhere back then and even got a bit of stick. The discussion suggests that while it was mocked, nostalgia might be setting in, and even the new Gears of War: E-Day is leaning into that desaturated look again. Honestly, I remember some of those games looking a bit drab, but part of me also misses that distinct, grounded aesthetic. It's a stark contrast to today's super vibrant, glossy games. What are your thoughts – is it time for a more grimy, less colourful look to make a return?
