Original Halo was released in 2001, 23 years ago.

Super Mario Bros was released in 1985, 39 years ago.

There is less time between the release of the first SMB and Halo than Halo and the present day, 16 years...

It's interesting how much technology has slowed down. Back in the 80s and 90s a 5 year old game looked horribly outdated. Now we're getting close to some 20 year old games still looking pretty decent.

True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.

Getting ready for Shadows, eh? At least that's the reason I replayed AK the other day. And Origins. And Asylum. And am in the middle of City.
