Game Graphics that blew ya mind at the time

[Metta World Movement]

Starfox was NEXT LEVEL once upon a time

Star Fox was CRAZY

When I first saw them 3D shapes on a damn SNES game I was like

 

[heisenburrr]

The Goat

 

[StraxStrax]

This gen: Red Dead Redemption

 

[nalej]

Original Contra. As a kid I thought we reached the peak in graphics then.

 

[VegetasHairline]

Final Fantasy X. Especially the cut scene graphics. Went back and played the game earlier this summer. It still was impressive.

 

[Ricky Church]

first time my boy plugged in the HDMI cable on his 360 and we seen the graphics on Smackdown vs. Raw (I forget what year)

had me like

 

[Red]

Virtua Racing

Links Golf

Full Throttle

Theme Park

Carmageddon

Half Life

Soldier of Fortune 2000

Black and White

Jet Set Radio

Ecco the Dolphin DC

...so on and so forth. Plus some game from the late 90s/early 2000's on the PC where you'd set fire to some fukking fat enemies with a flamethrower that I can't remember the name of. Oh, and some fukking cop game with a female lead I think that had dreads if I remember correctly. 21st century something something I think it was called. Around 1999 on PC.

No one mentioned Quake1 yet?!
