Ok is it just me or do these screens look nothing like anything shown before from this game? I mean either they are not actual screens from the game (but it says screenshots) or Mass Effect took a massive downgrade or I dunno what... these screens just look retarded...

 

Am I overreacting? I mean it looks good but really off and definitely not as good as previous footage or screens...

I dunno I just find these screens very ugly and out of place.
