StaceyPowers Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Is there a game you thought featured amazing, lifelike graphics when it came out, but which now looks really clunky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Mafia 1 to be honest, in my opinion back then, it had way better graphics than most of the open world games back then (GTA 3/Vice City), but it's a whole other story now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 FF8, honestly. Sure the cutscenes are beautiful and some of the best graphics I have ever seen in a video game. But including the remaster you can still tell that it’s a more than 20 year old game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 NBA Live '98. It's fun to go back and play as Antoine Walker (the Celtics star player of my teens), but I'm not going to pretend the graphics were any great shakes. I guess I thought they were good at the time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I can think of a few like Mk4, FF8 and Gran Tourismo that I thought looked amazing and life-like when they came out but looking at these games today, they looks so freaking ancient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I loved GT1. I think I completed it three or four times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Only one game/sim that comes to me that I do almost everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolisticStorm Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I think that the game EverQuest was pretty graphically amazing in its early days. Now it's kind of a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazycrab Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I'd say most early 3D games in general from the mid to late 90's. It was a transitional period between the old and the new so I think you can forgive them on that but there are older 2D games that actually hold up much better.

I've completed GT1, GT2, the completion meter was busted, but GT3 and GT6. GT4 I found too hard and GT5 had things that took too long for my amount of spare time like the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

It's definitely going to be mostly my Sega console games. For example, Contra and Mario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
