How Games Got Color
Believe it or not, video games weren’t always the beautiful, graphics-rich digital playgrounds we now know. I don’t have to tell you how fast things change in the video game industry, because if you’re like me and my friends, you’ve already spent hundreds of dollars upgrading video cards and adding on to your dream rig over the years, so you know how all that goes.

It’s nothing new. But it’s a far cry from the quantum leap games took when they first appeared in color.
