I really miss games being this colourful.

Trine 2 has been a breath of fresh air, lately, with all of its loveliness. As has Guild Wars 2, which has colour in abundance. I feel that we’ve gotten lost in what the new brown is, lately. We’ve had ‘green is the new brown’ (thanks Fallout) and ‘grey is the new brown,’ and so on, and so on.

We’ve had some very, very limited pallets in games and they do absolutely nothing to inspire the imagination whilst playing them. They look so utterly dull. I admit, we are beginning to reclaim colour, and recent titles have had some. Darksiders II had a pleasant amount of colour.

But mostly it’s still… dull, very dull and dry.

I hope we get out of this colourless rut, soon. But anyway, this is a nice reminder of how common colourful games used to be.

It’s also kind of sad that the shots of streets in Jet Set Radio still do a simple street better than most modern open world games, these days.
