Crackdown has always been ugly/bland. Its going for a comic book presentation. The series is more technically impressive than visually. Open world game with lots of action and heavy physics. Just Cause does that with better graphics but not as fun in my opinion.

I've seen gameplay of Crackdown 3 and it looks fine. It will also use X1X's power for native 4K and other visual polish.

YOUPretty much this.  I have played all of the Crackdown games and they have never been graphical pretty games.  I was hoping for Crackdown 3 to change this but with the Trailer and a gameplay one out there on YouTube, my hopes were dashed.  Crackdown 3 will definitely not be a graphical showcase game for MS but then again it never was.

One would think Microsoft would've had them showcase the destruction, but it looks like it's not going to reach that bar that was set for the destructions. Hopefully it does.
