So, Bungie likes the screen-space godrays, too.

What is with this craze? They work for some scenes, but dropping them all over the place and across huge areas of sky is the most obnoxious, cheap way to make a game look more polished ever. Can't compete with PC levels of detail? No problem, just hide that fact behind a sea of hazy blotches swimming all over the image!
I really, really hope it's not as intrusive as that video makes it look. Halo 4's visual makeup is not my cup of tea. Give me some skyboxes with substance behind them, and not skyboxes that hide the substance of the whole image.
Maybe they'll build contrast by doing different things in different atmospheres? I want to feel stuff like this again.
