I don't think it looks better than gears. Especially since the majority of the game is so dark. And not just 'darker colors and grays'...the game is pitch-black dark in the majority of the video. The only thing you can really go by is the characters and animations at this point until we have more video.

Aside from that, I don't care how it looks..I was never into gears, and probably won't be into this, but the collaborative combos and co-op (looking) gameplay looks neat. Plus theres a hot chick and she has some sort of weapon that at least turns into a sword, so I'm mildly interested because of that. I may try it, but I don't think I'll end up liking it very much more than, if more, than gears of war.

This stuff looks too much like gears. Its mildly embarrassing.

Now that's a rip-off

The people who are saying it looks better than Gears, pretty much sight unseen, are firmly grounded in reality, however.

who cares, it isn't like gears is a good game.

If you consider developer experience with the genre which will be a better game? Think for yourselves. Graphics don't matter in this case art style does. There doing something different with co-op. This game is shaping up pretty neat. I believe that Tecmo has to prove itself in this genre. Anyway nice work better than Gear of War? Probably not.
