None of that matters, however when you boot up your new game and find it bereft of features like advanced antialiasing, HDR, or Bloom. Console ports are mostly to blame for this (I’m looking at you, From Dust) as developers are forced to aim for the lowest common denominator targets to maximize sales and homogenize development, but they aren’t the only offenders. Modern 3D titles are rife with disappointments, but perhaps the more irksome to gamers are yestertech graphic options on recent games. Old games aren’t the only ones that cause trouble.
