2Pacavelli posted... PS2 Graphics is the first level where I say the 3D graphics are good enough to be presentable regardless of era I kind of feel similar. I'm old. My first console was the NES. So I've been playing games through all sorts of graphical eras. Unless I actually played the PS1 game back in the day it is really hard for me to try to get into it now. Like Xenogears, I booted it up on my Retroid Pocket to play but I got frustrated trying to tell where to jump and the paths to go and shit. Something like one of the final fantasy games which I played on the PS1 I don't have a problem getting into. --- "No. I'm a man so theyll get me a full size McDouble." - DuncanWii https://i.imgur.com/cSxy3Od.png ...

I'm with you, TC. I'm all in favor of metaphorically shitting all over the Muskrat's awful, low-poly truck, but I'm getting pretty sick of hearing people compare it to PS2 games' graphics, when it's clearly below the standards of the PS1 port of the original Ridge Racer. --- I don't want to live on this planet anymore. ...

That's because they tended not to go for realism, and instead went for art styles which age better. Hell. Look at Wind Waker: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/6/6b953e72.jpg Looks exactly the same as the day it came out compared to modern games. Now look at Heavy Rain: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/b61ea118.jpg This would be laughable nowadays, but was cutting edge when it came out. --- ~snip (V)_(;,;)_(V) snip~ I'm just one man!

VeggetaX posted... Alright that's it put your dukes up To be fair, the PS2 was the second weakest console that gen.

I still remember how impressive the graphical leap was from the 5th gen to 6th gen. The 6th gen was when 3D graphics actually looked good.

PS2, gamecube and xbox graphics are when 3D started aging gracefully to me. Like I still wince at some real booty early PS1, N64 depending on the game and sega saturn 3D, but PS2/gamecube/xbox is gorgeous in comparison. --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx NS friend code:5313-0564-0819 Go buy cyber shadow like right now. ...

2Pacavelli posted... PS2 Graphics is the first level where I say the 3D graphics are good enough to be presentable regardless of eraI agree with this generally it also helps that 6th gen 3D games generally also run a lot better. there are almost no 60 FPS 3D games on the N64 and a lot of them struggle to hit 30, and iirc outside several of the 3D fighters they are pretty much absent from the PS1 too. --- Born to lose, live to win!

There are a handful of PS1/N64 3D games that still look decent, but yea, most are pretty rough on the eyes, and hard to control. Going back and playing shooters on the N64 controller with only one analog stick is rough. I don't know how I managed it back in the day. Jerry_Hellyeah posted... Theres a range. Final Fantasies in particular stay on the cutting edge on every console, and FF10 still looks incredible.I'd argue the PS1 FF game as far as visuals go are among the worst aging of games from that gen. The pre-rendered backgrounds scale horribly because of the low base resolution, and all upping the rendering resolution (which does do wonders for cleaning up full 3D game) does is give you sharp 3D models standing on top of really blurry and pixelated jpgs. You really need something like the Meguri Mod for FF IX or the seamless HD project for the RE games to have them looking good. --- This is a signature. ... Copied to Clipboard!

2Pacavelli posted... Yeah as a whole that's the generation with graceful aged 3D GraphicsI'm just now noticing I completely forgot about the dreamcast, lol. Man its stuck in a unfortunate place in gaming history.......right between definitely better than PS1 3D, but can't quite hold up to PS2, gamecube, and xbox 3D. Some dreamcast games I think aged as good as it could like with soul calibur (better than the arcade original so this one is the heavy weight of the dreamcast), dead or alive 2, sonic adventure 1 and 2 and skies of arcadia, but then other 3D like with phantasy star online (and it pains me to say this with how much I cherish this series, lol) is lookin' rough in the modern day. But yeah PS2, gamecube and xbox is really good, and if you remaster these games and just give them higher resolution and framerate they still look real nice. --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx NS friend code:5313-0564-0819 Go buy cyber shadow like right now. ...

I agree that ps2 gsmes look fine, but I disagree that older games all look bad. Stylized games like Super Mario Bros 3 abd Chrono Trigger have a style that is both endearing and enduring. It's fine to personally dislike the pixel aesthetic, but well done it's evergreen and wikl always yave its fans. It's mostly attempts at 3D and realism, an area where ovjective improvement can be seen that there's an issue. --- My Real Blog https://veryrealwow.wixsite.com/website Send a PM with questions and I will reply on my blog.
