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 Really shows how much graphics have slowed down - used to be that 5 year old games looked hopelessly outdated.
Crysis 1 Xbox 360 gameplay, (this game's graphics are 17 years old and xbox 360 was released in 2005)

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.

It says a lot we’ve moved towards full PBR and raytracing, and it barely looks as impressive as Crysis did.

On top of that they had to dumb down the graphics to make it run on console.

And it occasionally ran at 24 fps.

This from 360 gen and Arkham Knight from Xbox One/PS4 still look incredible.
