when the 16 bit era was over what was your reaction seeing the new graphics on the N64 PS1 etc....???
the quality of the games outside of graphics were a bit shaky staring off. i'll give you a prime example. I remember nba live on the genesis and nba live on ps1. that ps1 gameplay was awful on a lot of fronts. the genesis game play was light years ahead of it. it took awhile for it to catch up.

Anyone who played the original tekken for the first time back in the mid 90s felt that they look so real. :wow:

Breh, when I first seen Mortal Kombat with real characters I thought that would be the epitome of video game graphics. I was like there's no way in hell they can top this :wow:

To be honest with you, 3d art still doesn't capture the emotion, environment or feeling that 2d art does. I'm beginning to wonder if it ever will.

I had a Sega Saturn , i only played the Saturn a few times since it was impossible to find games in my area , But it felt like a huge leap

Mario 64 had me :ohmy: probably the last game to ever truly blow my mind.

Doesn't hold up today though. 16 bit games look better than almost anything from N64 or PS1.
