>>
>>323333563
>Half Life 2
on par with oblivion
>Gears of War
no
>Twilight Princess
lol

care to try again?
>>
>>323332883
Thats one of the worst examples from oblivion though, not everyone looked that fucked up. Oblivion wasnt even the best looking game out in 2006 either
>>

>on par with oblivion

Having fun on your /v/eekend from school?
>>
>>323333571
Skyrim looked damn good when it came out
>>
>>323332883
its not just the graphics the whole art direction is disgusting in every bethesda game.
>>
>>323334117
>>323334431
you're both wrong, half-life graphics weren't all that incredible, definitely no better than oblivion, it was the physics that made it good.

Battlefield 2142 was also the best game out in 2006. get gud nerds
>>
>>323334431
>have no argument

back the fuck off!?!?

>>323334886
What name did I call you?

look at half life look at oblivion say that again

you were implying i was underage - i am not

>>323333497
*unzips superior intellect*
Can you handle my euphoria?
>>
>>323335170
look at half life screens that arent cinematic mods from 2013 and say that again
>>
>>323334117
There's no need to try again, because they're right. Even some PS2 games look leaps beyond Oblivion. It's a bad looking game and it always has been.
>>
>>323335353
literally name 10 PS2 games that look better than oblivion
>>
>>323333768
Damn, felt bad for him.
>>
>>323335773
Why do they have to be PS2 games?

Also Smackdown versus Raw
>>
>>323332306
Even in 2006, reviews were shitting on the potato faces.
>>
>>323335773
Nigga if we keep going this route you're gonna ask us to name 50 nes games that look better than Oblivion, and honestly I feel like someone would eventually succeed.
>>
>>323333563
i bet you can't name 3 more
>>
>>323332883

doom 3

both hl2 and oblivion's graphics(the environments at least) were extremely impressive at their time of release. anyone who says otherwise is either lying, or was too young to have a solid basis for comparison at the time.
>>
>>323332306
skyrim was not cutting edge
oblivion was not cutting edge
morrowind was not cutting edge

open world games, aside from witcher 3, are normally not cutting edge
>>
>>323336168
Okami
Final Fantasy XII
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell DA
>>
>>323332306
woah someone made Jonathan Blow in oblivion?
>>
Guild Wars Nightfall
>>
>>323336437
hl2 would have been impressive if its release wasn't delayed

however, it was
it did not look better than ut2k4, doom 3, or riddick


the person too young is most likely to be you
you'd need to find a pirated copy from release to see what it really looked like, unlike the game you played with all the graphical updates to make it look like less trash years later

the textures were always shit.

You forgot that part, OP.
>>
>>323337392
true, i often forget pc gaming exists (like most game devs)

You kidding? All he needs to do is get some shitty looking medieval armor, go to a convention and slay some cosplay girl pussy.

lol?

LOL??
>Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell DA
i'll give you this one, but 99% of the game is spent in night vision/pitch blackness so it doesn't really count
