For all the HD sharpness, complex shaders, and high-res textures of modern games, I still find that a great many older games are still visually appealing.

6th gen games like Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Odin's Sphere, God of War 1 & 2, and Conker Live and Reloaded still look fantastic to me with thanks to their attention to detail and aesthetic flair.

Hell, even Yoshi's Island way back on the SNES is still beautiful in my book. It might not be in 1080p or push hundreds of millions of polygons a second, but that crayon-and-pencil style hasn't aged a bit.

Do you also find some games from previous generations hold up visually today?
