The headline made me think I must be missing something. It's not weird to me that games look better/more realistic over time. That's the progression of technology.

So I watched the video, and... if I was missing something in the headline, I missed it in the video, too. I want my 6 minutes back, please.

Thank you for taking the hit so we dont have to

To summarize: the video opens on a series of games, each one progressively older, overlaid with a review of that game from the time it came out praising it as the best graphical fidelity of its time. Basically, they're saying "Yes, graphics got better, but we always seem to conclude that they're the best they will ever be"
