It's weird to make "5 years later" test, and out of 21 games tested most are older than a year

  • two 5 years old games (Assetto Corsa Competizione, Shadow of the Tomb Raider)
  • 3 years old port of 7 years old port (Horizon Zero Dawn)
  • two 3 years old game (Watch Dogs: Legion, Hitman 3)
  • three 2 years old games (Far Cry 6, Total War: Warhammer 3, Halo Infinite)
  • 1 year old remaster of 5 years old game (Spider-man Remastered)
  • three 1 year old games (Plague Requiem, COD Modern Warfare 2, Callisto Protocol)

Few of the titles that are from this year are kinda questionable choices:

  • game that comes out every year (F1 23)
  • game that started as expansion for 3-years old game (and it's heavily based on original game tech) (AC Mirage)
  • this year expansion for 3 years old game with expansion (Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty)

I think it would be much more interesting video, if "5 years later" video was about checking how those CPU perform in today's games, not how well they perform in games released in last 5 years.

You forgot to mention they test BG3, TLoU remaster, RE4, Starfield, Hogwards Legacy and Callisto Protocol, all being less than 1 year old. And CP 2077 had a big graphics update with the expansion.

It looks like a pretty balanced selection, with games from the last 5 years, 1/3 being less than 1 year old.
