Diminishing Returns 2: Shootin' Dudes in the Face


That's right, we've been shooting guys in first person since the very earliest days! First-person shooters still have more obvious increases than racing games, but what's notable is it took me a while to find an Xb1/PS4 game that I felt really showed off the hardware. If the game is mostly confined to buildings and alleys, the improvements over the 360/PS3 era are much less striking.

Atari 2600 (1977):

Okay, you're not shooting bad guys...but still...close enough!
