    We’re rapidly approaching a time when 20 year old games will still look pretty good by today’s standards. Really shows how much graphics have slowed down - used to be that 5 year old games looked hopelessly outdated.

      When Doom was 5 years old we got Half-Life. When GTA2 was 5 years old we got GTA San Andreas. When Quake was 5 years old we got Halo. Pretty crazy.
