Why does this look like a picture from a video game?

    It's a thing I'm seeing more and more often ... people thinking an image is from a video game ... and I think it's mildly interesting.

    In this case ... it's a bad image ... open the file on its own and zoom in and it's a bit glitchy and plenty pixelated.

    The interesting thing is I think we've got a generation brought up on video games who are well trained at spotting video game footage and assessing its quality etc, but, as a consequence, are now basically sensitive to a somewhat new illusion where imagery that is off in someway will look like video game footage to us rather than something that's just off or noisy/glitchy.
