I've got the quarters if you've got the time to get your ass beat.
Gimmie these graphics with amazing physics and gameplay over the polished turds they make today. Thanks.
It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time, it's tricky
You don't want to see another polished turd with ray tracing?
Don't even have a video ard that can do ray tracing. I'm immune to marketing.

And all the streets look like they’re wet for some reason.
Was that song in this game too? It's been stuck in my head for decades from SSX Tricky on XBOX.

Still looks fine tbh Can't say that about most games from that time
N64 definitely aged better than PS1, especially in motion. Just a few too many compromises, like the integer positions and no perspective on textures.
Games that were more stylized are great but ones that tried to look realistic look super dated. I love all the different choices designers would make during this time to make it look nice in a cartoon style
Water still looks and moves better than most games.

Going from the bleeps and bloops of the 8-bit gaming era to VR is quite a leap. VR was the realm of scifi, and now it exists as a reality. Is it perfect? No, and the steep psychological learning curve can be off-putting to some, but it's really good even as it is now.
This is three dimensional and the water reflects what is above?? The future is now!

Honestly, it holds up. Sure there's fewer polygons, but more polygons doesn't mean it looks better.
the ~~PlayStation~~ Nintendo 64 can produce mind-boggling effects.
