Graphics has always been a pissing match. I remember reading gaming mags in the 80s and they always fawned over graphics, ranting about how awesome some Speccy game graphics were or how amazing the new hot consoles from Japan were.

Honestly, the limitations of systems forces developers to be imaginative and stylistic about their designs. I can look at an 80s system now and still be impressed by the graphics, purely based on the stylism and delivery, a hallmark of the current demo scenes.

What are we aiming for, photorealism? How boring.
