Gaming now and then
If someone would have presented a XBOX 360 for me and my friends 20 years ago, I’m pretty sure we probably would have fainted. When you compare similar games from the mid-eighties with today’s top notch video and computer games, the difference in graphics is quite amazing.
Here’s an interesting comparison of 9 games from the 80′s with todays killer games – inspiration to write this short article came from this post by Henrik Torstensson.

I agree, if the casino isn’t built with the user in mind I head to a different site. Online casinos, if you play your cards right literally you can actually make some money, use the free bonus options sparingly and you can build some extra spending cash.

[...] a great post at Fosfor Gadgets that simply juxtaposes screen shots from old (mainly Nintendo) games from the 1980s with the Xbox [...]
