Then and Now

fosfor gadgets: If someone would have presented a XBOX 360 for me and my friends 20 years ago, I’m pretty sure we probably would have fainted. When you compare similar games from the mid-eighties with today’s top notch video and computer games, the difference in graphics is quite amazing. Here’s an interesting comparison of 9 games from the 80’s with todays killer games

This has been circling the web for over a week now, true but I saw it through different eyes today… instead of “Then versus Now” this could have also been a case of “Game versus Box Art”. Old school gamers can attest to this first hand: the box art in the 80’s was always wow and the game was a square dot. Not that we cared because it was still fun, but now a days, you actually play the game that is shown in the box art.

Wild.
