Was Vagrant Story really the best looking PSX game?
>>
No that's MM Legends do keep up.
>>
>>10908312
It is a contender

Best looking is subjective.

Fuck off with your loli shit, pedo

>>10908312
no 3D game is good looking, even to this day
if you're talking about being technically impressive then yeah maybe it's VS

Maybe but it was released in early 2000, which was a solid 5 years after the PS1 first released. Omega Boost was also released in 1999 with arguably some of the best graphics on the console and with parts of the game running at 60fps too. Just look at how good something like The Last of Us Part 2 looks and runs on the PS4 since it came out 7 years after the PS4 first launched.

It's ugly brown shit.
Play Saga Frontier 2 or Legend of Mana if you want some good looking PS1 games.
>>
I'd put Tomb Raider 3 against it.
>>
>>10908381
Omegaboost runs at 30 with some menus at 60. No gameplay in it is 60, but that's more a testament to how smooth the action is that it can be perceived to be 60.

Shit thread.

maybe?

I would say it's second best looking 3D game, first being >>10908316

That's one and the same.
>>
Yes
And it's not mainly for technical reasons. It's good camera direction, well chosen animations, handmade pixel art effects, etc for the most part.

It's a contender

It's up there, and mainly because it had really solid art direction that let it overcome its technical limitations.

This. 90% of it is trickery, but it's really fucking good trickery.

No. That was C-12 Final Resistance.
>>
>>10911260
Damn that is some good lighting.

It looks brown and fucky, and is aiming for a level of realism the PS1 isn't really built for.
FF9 is better looking, if anything
>>
>>10909682
lmao, no.
how do you get that?
play the fucking game.
>>
>>10909017
Why would you pieces of trash use a CRT shader without an NTSC shader underneath. Room temperature IQ
>>
>>10908312
There are many different ways to look good, and art direction plays an important part, but Vagrant Story, Metal Gear Solid, Silent Hill, Mega Man Legends, Valkyrie Profile, Mega Man X4 and Rayman are all examples of games that made me think "this looks good"

More like "best textured". That's all the PS1 can do.
>>
>>10908316
Dr. Slump looks better

Omega Boost looks like a PS2 game just without bilinear filtering.

Tere are plenty of games that are just as impressive. I mean it was good, but mostly becaise it was neatly stylized. Polygons were fucking huge and many locations dark shitholes, that always helps hide the bad stuff.

Overall I would say the best looking PSX game was probably Spyro 3.
>>
Fear Effect 2 was the best looking game, just not the most technically impressive.

Nah that remains Chrono Cross. It does have a very good art direction, though.

>>10911942
Why didn't anyone take advantage of texture wobble?
