... really that bad ??
When I was playing the PS1 in its heyday, years ago, I thought the graphics were so amazing.. but when you look at old clips of games on Youtube it's hard to believe that you were so blown away at the time. My memory of the games makes them look better but reality reveals them in a less flattering light !  I remember thinking Tekken 2 was the most amazing thing I ever saw ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC5GbcApY54 Of course, as technology gets better, older efforts seem less impressive.. but it's funny how our memories play tricks on us !  Have you had any realisations like this with old games recently ? |

I used to be blown away by Virtua fighter II, let me go watch it again.
I loved Paul in Tekken, that was my favorite, I know, pretty predictable

Nods honestly they where terrible! When I play games like Crysis, Rage, Deus EX HR and Battle Field 3 on max hd graphics with DirectX 11 and a decent graphics card, it makes consoles (even the XBOX360 and PS3) look like a joke. Coming back to the PS1, the jagged low polygon graphics, running lagger, it is amazing how far the gaming industial has gone in graphics and realism.
However, they still do have some really fun arcade style gameplay which you could keep coming back to! Back then they didn't have to worry so much on the looks and just focused on gameplay. Smaller games such as flash games, mobile games, and consoles should really stick to just the good gameplay. Now the big boy games are bigger than the movies and more complex to make, in a make or break.
