Anybody else see that pop up on the main Steam page?
Doing some digging it looks like they sharpened a few textures and smoothed a few jaggies, but otherwise isn't this the same thing I beat 16 years ago?

    I actually just found out that Side By Side is not true, I just loaded it up and I still see the old graphics
     
    If you want the updated graphics you have to get this

    Now it makes sense.  I had just booted the game up and played through that level,  and I was thinking I messed up my install somehow.  Oh well, I prefer the retro look!  Oh the nostalgia...

    Here is some screenshots, this graphics mod took a beating on my system and even maxed out the 1.28GB on my GTX 570, I was getting between 30 - 60fps at 1920x1080, 4X AA
