While people wrinkle and sag with old age, video-game characters keep looking better and better. I absolutely love retro pixel sprites, but I have to admit modern gaming technology makes everything a whole lot nicer to look at. See for yourselves in these side-by-side comparisons.

| Ghosts n’ Goblins (1985) | Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (2011) |
| Captain America and the Avengers (1991) | Captain America: Super Soldier (2011) |
