For me it was the Skyline GTS.4

For me it was the Dodge Super Snake.

For a game that came out in the same century as Theodore Roosevelt's presidency, that's pretty impressive.

looks pretty good desu

Compare the amount of content out of the box in GT2 to the latest GT game. Graphics were less photorealistic then but every aspect of game design and marketing has become horrifically and exponentially more ugly since

>emulator screenshot

It's a very sobering thing having to start this game with a Mazda Demio
God that car is awful.

The demio is in license tests. Buy a used savannah Rx7 as your starter car

The best road car in GT history never reappeared again after GT2. Almost 700HP of peak power, strong enough even to fight race cars.

I hate that it's a meme but playing Super Mario 64 for the first time was the craziest shit I have ever seen.

RENDERING PS1 GAMES AT HIGHER RESOLUTIONS MAKES THEM LOOK WORSE

GET THIS THROUGH YOUR FUCKING HEADS YOU RETARDED FAGGOTS

Nah not always. I think R4 and Silent Hill look great.

YOU THINK WRONG, YOU DUMB FUCK

no matter how often I try to explain this to my friends they continue to upres to 4K and worse, turn on texture filtering

As a kid i thought the same but recsntly played ff8 like that and yeah, it looks like you are walking on a bad low res picture
Crt shaders are the only to play

bigger numbers = better graphix

I'm a 99 zoomie and I think that looks pretty good.

FUCK ME TAKE ME BACK

Nothing in this image is bad

It's not meant to be.

Boomers in 1997 also played it in superior crt tv.

R4 is pristine.

Boomers weren't really into video games, it's more of a millenial thing

GT5 was the last good one, 3 was terrible but at least 4 manage to improve things

Still am those fucking polygons of pure soul. Gonna crack open a monster and go groom some teens on /vr/ discord

Yes, and? We had single core 200mhz CPUs.. 25 years of advancement in a fast moving field..

r4 is just unfair

CRT shader + high-res low-poly + low-res textures is the best combo.

Well yeah. Just a few years ago Mario kart cameout and it was just 2d game pretending to be 3d. This must be one of these first games to actually come close to 3d for it's time.

/thread

Yes I did, and they didn't even look that good. That looks better than how it looked on a 90s CRT.

Kids back then:
>limited tv time
>a handful of various magazines and comics
>tons of hobby and activity options
>arcade/vidya is new and amazing
>if you have a home console you play the same couple of games for months
>friends want to come over
>exchange cartriges and help each other with walkthroughs
Kids now:
>all imaginable entertainment is in your pocket
>nothing can impress you
>play new game for two hours and drop it
>buy and play whatever your favorite streamers play
>get groomed on discord

That’s everyone now however. Why do you think 80% of media is stagnant and poorly written? ADHD writers with no imagination and corporate suits with no taste pushing what marketing thinks is a good idea

>3 was terrible
Shit taste

yes, and the game still looks nice.

Why some people can't into context?

I always meant to ask, relative to the available technology at the time, were older consoles weaker or stronger?

> There are children in this thread unironically recommending CRT shaders and low res output options.
Tell me how you wished you lived in the 90s, but didn't without saying so.

and nowdays we shit ourselfs for paid mods.
BTW, if you are a BeamNG.Drive Fan (vehicle sim for pc)
well you are in luck. cuz some dumbass modder released yet another paid mod, but this is a leak so have fun.
Beamng Cherrier picnic.

Grainy low polygon smooth graphics >>> Sharp HD graphics

There's simply no comparison to it, same for pre-rendered backgrounds.

Collecting shit "boomers" like simply because it's old is not a substitute for a personality. You're like those faggots who still appreciate dad rock.

Yeah brah the 90s were so much better. What an original take.

So like this?

>just 90s
Every year before 2012 had better media

>he unrionicly enjoys the paperweight modern consoles

*Before 2008
FTFY

Everything went to shit when iPhones and Facebook became popular and the recession happened

I'm sorry, I'm just....I'm just gonna do it! Hahaha! Sorry!

>Shaders
>To make a new screen look like an old one
Just face the fact led tvs are not made for stuff older than 2004-2008 instead of missing the entire point on what you're trying to do. Use the strenght of the screen you're using/have instead.

>That Test Drive PS Demo playing with Dodge Viper
Home!

>dad rock
>mfw Deep Purple was called like that back then even in the fucking 80s
It's just classic rock and mind you, it's lit; good music is timeless. Are you gonna call the cult dad rock or some shit?

Gran Turismo's Hi Res mode or whatever it was called that unlocked when you beat the game seriously blew my mind as a kid.

>game gets port
>it’s poorly done and actually fucks up the game in different ways
>game gets emulation
>frame rate is jank or simply reacts incredibly poorly to being ran on something it was never designed for
I just want to enjoy things

Wasn't it 60fps mode? Kind of a dick move to lock something like that behind beating the game.

I GO THE EXTRA MILE

we disn't shid any pants until Gran Turismo 3

and to this day they would get shidded

5 is the worst in the series and 3 was fantastic.

Youtube says 60 fps. I don't even know if 90s era tvs would do 60 fps

Note we have the challenge of continuously producing "new" and "fresh". Past decades had an easier array of unexhausted archetypes to work with. You have to be extra creative to make something considered "good" nowadays; as opposed to faithfully recreating, in structure, something that was considered good back then.
