It's certainly impressive, but I feel like the liberties taken with some of the modern polish don't do it for me. It looks like a shiny plastic toy.

I'm a fan of using Doomsday with sane settings and HD textures, but keeping the original sprites. You can dial things in to look pretty, but still feel true to the original art style and mood.

I was just about to say exactly this. For some reason the go-to effect seems to always be reflections. Why does everything need to be super glossy? Add lens flares while you're at it, why don't you.
