Gears is not a game from this gen thats the difference

The remaster delivers graphics of this gen. It seems people are ignoring that minor detail.

I dont think anybody complained about the lack of 60 fps in Halo Anniversary because of the vastly improved graphics.

Halo 2 anniversary runs at 60fps, 1328x1080. Of course people complain about 60fps too.

Graphics of this gen is debatable too, it's still using old techniques, far from looks like current gen compared to Wolfenstein new order, AC unity or TW3. Gen 7.5 I guess.

I meant Halo Anniversary on the 360. That had to be 30 fps because of the visual upgrade. The X1 version acheived 60 fps because it was 360 assets.

Halo 2 Anniversary was built around a 60 fps, but that limited resolution and potential graphics quality. It doeset have the same polish as Gears UE.

Gears Ultimate looks more polished than Wolfenstein, that game also used a dynamic resolution that went well below true 1080p. AC Unitity was 900p and a technical disaster with constant frame dips.

Games like TW3, Farcry 4, and Arkham Knight are amongst the most polished or technically impressive games you will find on 8th gen. I dont think Gears Ultimate is a technical achievment like those, but it trounces 7th gen graphics and its a nice looking 8th gen game.

Gen 7.5 is simple ports with a higher resolution or frame rate.
