Gaming graphic evolution

Found this image set online the other day and it just brought me wonderful memories and an awful feeling of ageing. Looking at the evolutions of some of the biggest gaming franchises gives a perspective view of how much and how fast the gaming indrustry is evolving. The technical limitations are disappearing more and more and the only thing standing in the way is time and budget. Wondering how now mobile technology is overtaken by far on what used to be console gaming makes you think what will the next generation of gaming will be like. 
The scary part of this in my opinion, is maintaining up to speed with the latest technology and how to keep implementing my artwork and gaming ideas into a project that has to be a step ahead. 
This is what pushes me to eagerly attend to conferences and game shows, not to only see what's coming out soon and have a go at it, but to the more technological side of it, that could help me get a better perspective of what's coming.
Locally and relatively frequently the events like Game Republic and Gamayo bring people along from the industry that gives us a perspective of what recent developments they've done. 
In the meantime...look at all this images and get full of nostalgia...
