I think the Silent Hill series. Everything after 2 seems so underwhelming because of how great a game it was. Hopefully SH5 can change that.

By downgrade I meant from original trailers shown to final product, basically games that end up looking nothing like when they are first shown.

I think Halo's art style doesn't lend itself to next-gen machines if you ask me. It's too colourful. As bungie said, they were really surprised when people said they didn't like the graphics as, if you look up close at anything, it's some of the best, most detailed textures in any console game to date. When you look at things broadly though, it just looks like a big candy-coloured landscape and you cant really see any of those crazy-detailed textures.

I appreciate them sticking to their art style, but i think they could have benefited by toning down the colour a little and going for a slightly more Gears/COD4 approach.

Sure you can. Making a CGI trailer and saying the game will look like that, only to have it look nowhere near as good, is a downgrade if you ask me.

Wow, I remember when that trailer for DMC4 was first shown. Looks incredible.

Not only did the game not reach its traget in terms of graphics (that's okay, if the game did it would be the best looking game out there) but the character design for Dante was an epic downgrade was well.

Halo3 looked exactly as it should have..... sure more detail would have been nice (not saying it didn't have alot of detail, but more is always better, M I RITE?)

I never said Halo 3 looked bad or anything. But graphic wise, Halo 2 had a bigger wow factor than Halo 3 for me.

Gundam something or another. you could argue it was CGI too, but since Sony said it was ingame I think we can count it as a downgrade.
