Nobody really thinks so but keep posting lovely Spyro screencaps
>>343911830
Agree, most devs knew they were sorta limited so they had to get creative and go for a nice style rather than making it look "real", like Crash, spyro and Parappa to name a few.

>Posts upscaled PS1 graphics with a fuck ton of AA and filtering
You're not fooling anyone
Depends on the game. Some suffered more from the Z-calculation jitters or muddy texture work than others, while some really benefited from escaping flat colorful textures of most N64 releases.
N64 is way better.
N64 collect-a-thons >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> PS1 collect-a-thons
>>343911830
Definitely. The one problem was the PS1's rounding issues that caused weird 3D perspective distortion.
What is the best N64 had to offer? Banjo Tooie and Perfect Dark? They can't even compare to some of the games the PS1 somehow had running on it, and running smoothly too.
- N64 has a real GPU.
- PS1 does not.
- Those renders are from a tool used to open Spyro maps on PC.

God damn imagine Banjo being able to actually run around and platform in that world instead of needing a vehicle to get everywhere
I didn't even dislike Nuts & Bolts all that much but the two year wait between the teaser trailer and N&B's first gameplay trailer was fucking brutal to me.
>>343914651

The colors and overall artstyle are pretty bad to be honest. Not saying anything about the actual graphics, but the art is incredibly dated.

PS1 hardware is garbage
The N64 had the advantage of coming out later, with better hardware.
>>343915748
Software mode plebs btfo.
>>343915748
I remeber I knew almost nothing about pc hardware so I was disappointed that the graphics quality was worse than N64 when we finally got a pc in 1998. Then I found out about 3d accelerators, bought a 3DFX card and it all went up from there.
>>343916146
If the N64 is more powerful, why do the games look worse?

>"not real 3D" because of low-precision math
Give me a fucking break, retard. All 3 consoles calculate 3D geometry, variance in precision does not make one any less "real" than the other.

>>343911830
Technically no, but I really liked how PS1 games looked in general.
>>343916604
You can do primitive 3D calculations on a SNES or Genesis, doesn't make them 3D consoles
>>343915162
To be fair it was really fucking spooky that way.
>>343916339
Yeah, it was like a fuckin black magic.
3Dfx spirits are still living in those nvidia cards.
>>343911830
Am i the only one who like the distorted texture effect of the ps1 era?
Especially on spooky game like medievil. Bonus point if the overall world is very dark.
>>343916853
The joke here is that you can use a PC to see tits (pornography) but you couldn't with consoles back then.
>>343916359
>implying
>>343916359
It's mostly down to art. PS1 had shit 3D, but the devs were smart and put some effort on designing stuff for it, so a lot of games still hold up to this day because of the good art styles. N64 had better 3D but mostly boring art and some shit that tried to go for a realistic look, which looks like shit nowadays. Nintendo games had good art, but third party ones were pretty shit.
>>343916961
I love it, makes the world feel more alive or something.

>>343916359
>If the N64 is more powerful, why do the games look worse?
I think he's serious.
>>343916961
Not sure if liking is the right word, but it is really nostalgic, and adds some charm I guess to the games released on that console.
>>343916770
SNES could not perform 3D calculations natively, games like Star Fox had 3D chips embedded in the carts that could interface with the SNES hardware to draw to the screen, there is literally nothing in the SNES that allows 3D math to be performed. It's the exact same with 3D games like Virtua Racer on the Genesis. PS1, Dreamcast and N64 can all perform 3D math on the console itself.
Think before you post you fucking retard.
>>343917045

FFIX's graphics were cozy as fuck. Hell IX had nicer models than some early PS2 games.

You bring the original Spyro trilogy to shame. Stop that this instant.
Why did N64 games had such blurry textures?
I remember playing Turok and Goldeneye and it was a sad mess.
>>343917436
Speaking of, I just got Goldeneye
Does that game look any different when the N64 uses an Expansion Pak?
>not playing on your n64 on your jet's MFD
>>343917436
That's just proper early 3D in general. The pixelated look of PS1 textures helped make them more crisp.
>>343917436
The N64 had a blur filter that is applied to every game on a hardware level.
>>343916853

>>343915748
PC gaming back then was the worst. you have to remember that we were back in 100-500mhz range. you had to shell out premium hardware just to play. let alone the OS was ridden with virus once you connect to the internet thing.
R6/ao2 online was great though + roms and shit.
>>343917404
>SNES could not perform 3D calculations natively
PS1 can't do them all either. It doesn't have float support, how do you expect it to perform proper 3D calculations?
>>343914782
>>343914651
HEHE DUNKEY SAID ITS GOOD SO I BETTER EMULATE IT HEHEHEHEHEHE
THE GOOD OL' DAYS
>>343917559
It was made before the expansion pak so it doesn't use the additional RAM
>>343917436
Extremely small texture cache + need for compression due to expensiveness of solid state media.
>>343917436

>>343916146
I think we can all agree that the texture warping in PSX games is apparent. I think some early PS2 games do that too, at least Ratchet and Clank 1 did.
>>343911830
My dick graphics >> your dick graphics
>>343917678
it sucked hard in my opinion.
On the other hand the crisp textures of the PS1 were pretty good.
>>343917765
>PC gaming back then was the worst.
Stop reading
>>343917765
>PC gaming back then was the worst.
Whoah easy there fella. It sure as heck wasn't cheap but there were lots of great games to be played.
>>343917895
I've always felt RGB and GameShark codes that remove the filtering make the games look worse with all the dithering it introduces.
I really love the way the texture moved in ps1 games, it gave games a weird feeling.
>>343917792
By 3D calculations I mean "has the ability to natively process polygonal graphics", the PS1, Dreamcast and N64 all use 3D polygonal math to render their games; X,Y,Z coordinates etc... precision doesn't mean dick shit, the math is being performed, all that is differing is the rounding process, it is still 3D.
Not calling the PS1 a 3D console is pure idiocy, you evidently know nothing about how it works.
>>343918028
Ratchet and Clank had perspective correct texture mapping; I don't think any PS2 games didn't.
It did have some questionable LoD effects. Insomniac had used LoD on Spyro to great effect but it was a little glitchy in R&C so you would see world objects swell or shift as you approached them sometimes. Nothing to do with hardware, just their implementation of LoD.
n64 looked bad, ps1 looked worse
Well spyro had super comfy music at least
>>343917765
>Poorfag
>let alone the OS was ridden with virus once you connect to the internet thing.
You deserved it.
>>343917417
FFIX was made at the end life of the PS1 so it's not surprising. It was fucking magic tho
>>343916359
I wouldn't say they look worse just that nobody could actually figure out how to program N64 games other than Nintendo and the devs who made Beetle's Racing Adventure. Meanwhile the PS1's greatest weaknesses (lack of floating-point implementation and crippling read times) had workarounds made by most devs so their effects were reduced.
Why do you bring this upon yourselves?

Man those Spyro games are still really fun.
I should set my ps3 up again and play them
What's with the sonynigger chimpout happening today on /v/?
It's impressive how the worlds in Spyro hold up as well as they do.
The character models don't at all but Insomniac had great art directors working on the environments.

Insomniac were always technical wizards even better than Naughty Dog.

Its a shame Edge of Reality butchered the music in the N64 version. The console can handle quality music with effort and compression.

>>343916359
Each fifth-generation console has it's pros and cons over the other. If you're talking about emulation, it's because N64 emulation is a clusterfuck.
>>343911830
Remember when you were a kid and played games because they were fun instead of shitting out of your mouth about what was better?
Yeah me neither, the playground was a tough place.
>>343918983
>>343919743
it's funny how screenshot don't make justice to how blurry and shit the N64 games were and how crisp the PS1 were.
You kids would know if you were not so underaged and actually played the games on the consoles.
How can psx even compete?
>>343920504
Other way around, PS1 games look crisp andedgyon emulators while on a CRT both consoles were the same grainy shit.
>>343920198
Yeah I think it was just laziness that made most devs go with the midi/tracker music. Not that I didn't like some of it anyway. I preferred the SF Rush sequel soundtracks to the original even though the original actually had real recordings.
>>343919743
N64 has no shadows.

i had no idea R4 was even on the N64. is that even R4 on the right? looks like a totally different game.

I would not know, and I don't think it was a matter off good graphics or not but more about how uncomfortable the blurry texture made the experience.

Good AA doesn't blur. I'd take PS1 jaggies over the N64's "Vaseline smeared all over the television set" any day.

Modern console war threads are boring since it's just a cycle of shitting on whatever new game or accessory comes out, but with old consoles it's easier and funner because all the cards have already been dealt for them.
>>343921454
Nintendrone here. Not even close. Sure it had Marios, Zeldas, Smash, and Banjo, but that was about it. N64 is definitely a low point and marked a clear decline. Gamecube amped the quality back up and had good 1st and 3rd party games and then they ruined that all going forward.
We can at least agree
PS1 sound >N64 sound

>>343911830
I totally agree. Also, having 700mb of storage media helps a lot to deliver good graphical assets.
That's the reason why RE2 was so much better on PS1.
Conker's Bad Fury Day is impressive as hell for an N64 game.
>>343917678
>>343917436
n64 also uses Edge Anti-Aliasing which is something like FXAA.
PS1 games had high res textures so obviously it's going to look much better on an emulator that can run on a much higher rez than the PS1 ever could.

Cool beans.
Who here had divorced parents try to play favorites getting you both PS1 and N64?
The entire 5th generation in general was a fucking mistake.
>>343923294
At least you're admitting the N64 was 6 years ahead of the PSX.
>>343922148
The n64 was capable of better audio quality, it's just that the limits of the cartridge never let it realize that fact.
>>343916359
64MB cartridge was the maximum amount of space, so every texture had to be compressed, some up to a point of unrecognisable
>>343917643
>pixelated look of PS1 textures helped make them more crisp.
t-tell em bro!
>>343915102
But it works in context with the game's universe. There's no moment where you're not either in the fog or in the dark. It's a clever embrace of the limitations of the console.
>>343923513
Hi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnjie2G7_gQ
I have a CRT with S-video for PSX and N64 right next to methey both look like shit still
The N64 has objectively better gramfix but I usually prefer the PSX when it comes to 2D, and pretty much only Nintendo's first party games make good use of the 64's abilities anyway.
>>343924293
>s-video
NTSCfags lol
>>343917678
Quake on the n64 actually let you turn it off and Hexen64 let you turn sprite smoothing off or on.
Then you had other games that made hi res optional.
I miss when games on console would actually let you configure things how did options get worse as time went on and not better?

>>343923374
Let me guess...your mom cheated?
>>343921454
It really isn't the case. Whilst you might have Mario 64 and Banjo, you trade away third party games like Oddworld, Final Fantasy and more experimental titles like Vib Ribbon and Ape Escape.
Nintyfag who skipped the N64/PS1 generation and got both around 2002/3. Whilst there are classic titles I keep coming back to on N64 for sure, I play through Banjo every Summer alongside Sunshine, Wind Waker and MGS for example, there's a bigger variety of games I consistently play on PS1, (Exoddus, FFVII, Crash 2/3, CTR, Medievil to name a few)
>>343923374Happened with PS360 for me.
>>343921454
N64 had like what, 10-12 games at most?
>>343923374
Nope. They've been married since their teens. I had to buy my own vidya.
>>343925086
>Oddworld, Final Fantasy
eh
Most people here dont mention the actual gems of the n64 library like Ocarina, Majoras Mask, Banjo 1 + 2, Smash, Mario Kart, Mario Party, Perfect Dark, Mischief Makers, Blast Corps, Jet Force Gemini, Conkers Bad Furday, Killer Instinct, Diddy Kong Racing
PS1 had a better library overall in terms of quantity and variety but i don't think its heavy hitters had the quality of n64's big titles
The adage goes that ps1 had a hundred games you wanted to play and n64 had 10 that you couldnt stop playing.
I don't think either side is really right or wrong in terms of which system had a better library
>>343917404
>SNES could not perform 3D calculations natively
It could. Certain magic effects in Chrono Trigger used them.
>>343925037
Nopeblack dad spent too much time with friends, smoking pot.Haven't seen him in 8 years comes back and tries his hardest to win my love. fuck him.
>>343925917
The N64 had knockout titles, I'll give it that. I'd much rather stick in Mario Party 3 than Crash Bash, and still spend hours in Goldeneye MP with buddies.
It's as you said, the standout titles really stood out, but there's much more variety in the PS1 library.
>>343926253
Games like Brave Fencer Musashi tried lots of new things, but in the end, was it more fun than a good ol' platformer? Or was it in fact an attempt of moderate success which was basically ditched after one game?

Is there a better looking PS1 game than Vagrant Story?
Would a N64 in this day and age now that flash storage has become so cheap be superior to the PS1?
You could easily make N64 cartridges today with several gigabytes of storage, meanwhile the PS1 would probably still be stuck with a 700MB Cd-Rom

>>343928959
The jittering is really only noticeable if you render the games at HD resolutions. And even then there are plugins to get rid of it.
>>343923797
Best example of this is rogue squadron. Factor 5 developed its own audio driver and compression technique for it. It has some of the most and highest quality voice overs on the system. The music was also very good.
>>343924992
The nostalgia is way better than the games anyway.
>>343929210
It was noticeable as fuck at the time bro.
For the niggers talking shit about the n64 fog, I ll have you know it worked to help make one of the most fun games for the n64, even today. Road Rash 64. When you cant see that truck rendering until its too late, it makes for so many lols

Ha, no. I pined for a Game Boy for years seeing how some of my friends were playing Pokemon. Then my parents and grandparents all got together to get me a GBA on Xmas '01. It's not like any one of them couldn't have afforded it on their own, it was more about how much I was allowed to be spoiled and coddled. Did you really think I was deserving of a Game Boy, games for it AND other shit on top of that? Laughable.
The next year they pulled off the same thing with a PS2. I was both incredibly happy with my gifts but also a little disappointed it wasn't a GameCube. In hindsight my family made the better choice, of course.

Man those flight simulators were amazing.
I remember playing that su-27 one and it took me like 2 hours to figure out how to use the missles on ground targets.
Also landing without exploting into million pieces was pretty hard.

Firstly, you're playing a PC emulation with a fuckton of AA and upscaling done. Hardly the point made in your screenshots.
SEcondly, Spyro was IIRC one of the first 3d games ever to implement a LOD engine, which was how they managed to put so much shit into the levels - it's not really a fair comparison to try and say that PS1 graphcs as a whoile were better just because one game had such an innovative piece of software technology in it. Most other games just did the silent hill method where they hid most of the screen from view to let the graphcs that you could see look good.

That's entirely untrue, interactive audio was a major priority for various developers on both consoles. You could always just have music playing in the background but the interaction makes the whole experience much much more captivating. Mark Steven Miller was all about this and even implemented this in Taz-Mania on the genesis.

You're not fooling anyone OP. Everyone remembers the moving textures...the low render distance...and the insane amount of jaggies. Oh Lordy the Jaggies.
>>343938916
The N64 had a shitter draw-distance.
>>343939037
They both did. OPs pictures are deceiving because Spyro was one of the few games to develope an engine to render longer distances. Most of the ps1 library had shitty shit draw distance.

Legitimate bait.
PSX:

>bigger game size. So you can have a lot of high res backgrounds
N64:
>better drawdistance
>higher polygon count
>much better shaders in games
They both have pros and cons but overall I would say the N64 is better, imo.

N64 had a big smudge filter applied on top of the output, which only slow ass, uncommon low-level plugins replicate. Also, most popular N64 emulator plugins don't emulate N64 texture filtering properly, resulting in fucked up sprites and UI objects.
In both systems, people tend to turn on stuff like anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering to make them look better. Also, the PS1 had ZERO texture filtering, so the screenshots OP posted are very inaccurate, for that and also their anti-aliasing (which the PS1 did not have and which the N64 did have, albeit in an earlier, weaker incarnation)
>>343923869
He means that you shouldn't be filtering low-res textures, because it looks like arse. Unfiltered textures look more crisp.
>>343915102
So like Turok?

Yep
Of course nintentoddlers didn't play the masterpiece that is chrono cross
>>343952009
Bad ports are as much a reason to think the PS1 is more powerful than the N64 as they are to think the Dreamcast is more powerful than the PS2.
>>343917234
Bilinear filtering looks horrible when the textures are that low-res.
IMO, Legend of Mana is one of the best looking games on the PS1. Hell it's I'll even go as far as saying it's good looking by today's standards.
>>343918983
I actually prefer the clear, jagged mess to the blur filter.
>>343953063
>its bad because its a port
It was never an exclusive though, the first battletanx was on n64 and ps1 too. The ps1 looked better in that case too...

Youre going to type out arguments how you somehow knew the developer viewed the n64 as an afterthought.... really....
You cant accept reality, huh?
Go ahead and show me some games that looked better on the 64 than the PS, go ahead, ill wait for you.
>>343926359
Nigga these 2 aren't even the same wipeout.
Left one is Wip3out, right one is Wipeout: 2097. Both for ps1.
Wip3out got a remake for N64 tho but the controls were shit
>>343952009
The N64 version is way better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nALPY_BZgPA
>>343953873
All Mana games are good looking. Even the remake on mobile/Vita looks good despite being 3D.
But I don't think there will be a 2D game good looking as LoM ever.
>>343955178
>Why is it so hard to accept the n64 wasnt as capable as the psx?
Because that is objectively wrong.
Didn't one of them handle textures much better and the other better used polygons? Wasn't there something like that?
>>343955178
Because it's factually incorrect. The GPU's feature set in hardware was far and away superior to what the PS1 could do and even outstripped consumer PCs until the Voodoo came along.
This isn't even about fanboyism. The PS1 certainly had the better games. But the N64 had plain better guts than the PS1.
>>343955484
N64 had much better texturing than the PS1.
Saturn had weird quadrilateral polygons, which you may be thinking of.
>>343952009
PS1 and N64 were both flawed, just in different ways. Don't know what you're smoking.
>>343955543
>>343955457
Why dont the graphics look as good though?
>>343955345
even this guys battletanx doesnt have as far a draw dinstance and the textures are blurry as fuck compared to the PSX.
Was the n64 just an afterthought or what?
>>343955646
Wow, why would you use squares? Everyone's known triangles were the best shape since fucking prehistory.
>>343955828
Why do early PS2 ports look worse than on Dreamcast?
Devs are too shit, too lazy or don't have enough time to port properly.
Yeah, if you like a flickery eyesore.
>>343955976
You realize developers need to learn the consoles framework and coding right?
Could it be that maybe the n64 didnt have robust features like the n64?
i remember reading Unified ram was difficult to work with unlike the PSX's independant vram and soundcard.
But you guys go on telling me how hardware was the end all be all of consoles.
>>343916614
What game is on the left?
>>343955930
Because they thought you could make better models with 500 squares vs 500 triangles (just as an example)
>>343955828
Actually the game came out first for the N64 and is a sequel to the N64 exclusive first title. It has a better framerate and graphics not to mention way more tanks in any given level. The PS1 port is shit just like Glover's port was shit. Hell any N64 to PS1 port is shit because its simply way weaker hardware.
>>343930592
>fmv game

>>343956249
>i remember reading Unified ram was difficult to work with unlike the PSX's independant vram and soundcard.
and then the PS3 had separated RAM and developers were complaining about how much better the 360's unified RAM was.
Now everyone uses unified RAM.
Devs bitched about the Sega Saturn's parallel processors and now everyone does it.

Just to throw the sega saturn into this as well, the console could put out some very impressive games if you designed them around the console limitations. Bulk Slash is extremely impressive and makes some really clever use of the background layers and saturn rendering quirks.

>>343956249
Didn't the whole emotion engine thing throw developers for a loop since it was so different in a similar way the cell processor did in the ps3?
>>343956818
Yes.
PS2 was more powerful than Dreamcast, but harder to utilise.
PS3 was more powerful than 360, but harder to utilise.
And it's safe to say that on the whole, the N64 was more powerful than the PS1, but harder to utilise.
>>343956485
If the bitch would stop saying Sugoi, I'd say that this looks more rad than anything I played that gen.
Of course the Saturn had Panzer Dragoon, which automatically makes it better than either N64 or PS1 in my book.
The simple but clean/clear designs of mario, banjo, zelda were far better than the ridiculous mess that happened when ps tried to be realistic with mgs, resevil, fg8, etc
Spyro and crash were better in that regard
>>343953008
>masterpiece
That's a funny way to say all style and no substance.
I did play it though. It made me wish I could transplant the art and music onto a better game.
>>343916724
City escape?
>>343957765
That's because "realistic" graphics become outdated fairly quickly because tech advances so quickly causing them not age horribly compared to more stylized stuff.
Nothing on the PS1 came close to the N64 killer aps.
>>343958040
Sure but im just saying that early 3D attempt at realism was garbage.
Probably why people like jeff gertman hate n64/early 3D: realistic attempts were bad, and they were too 'mature' and cool to play the multitude of great 3d platformers because they look "kiddy"
Hey guys what's going on in this thread?
>>343958040
Which is why everyone will look back at Wii//Wii U games and say they've aged much, much better than most PS3/360/PS4/Xbone games. Stuff on 360 from a scant few years ago already looks awful just because everything has to try to be photo-realistic.
>>343911830
I like them both.

As a child I always hated the N64.
Everything looked blurry and the controller was a piece of shit.
In fact I still don't like the N64.
The PSX was great.

>>343961585
For me, the fact the N64 had more than 2 controller slots worked out perfectly me since I had 2 younger siblings (and a shit load of cousins) and we enjoyed playing multiplayer games. A lot of time was spent in battle mode of mario kart, star fox, and eventually smash bros.

The whole high contrast, grainy thing worked wonders for MGS1. I honestly don't think it could've looked better on N64
>>343914895
Conkers BFD looked miles better than anything I had seen at the time.
The n64 had higher polygon graphics, but the games looked far more uglier than the PS1.
N64 games looked weird and plastic and had shit art style compared to the PS1. Compare something like Quest64 to Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy 9, Legend of Dragoon. Not to mention the PS1 had full-motion video and superior and more diverse collection of games. Square's RPGs on the PS1 really showed how significant art style is
N64 only had obscure, ugly looking platformers, racing games, fighting games, or sports titles. The kids who owned N64s most likely had Zelda, the Mario games, Star Fox 64, or Smash Bros
Not saying that the N64 was a bad system...it certainly did have a handful of innovative classics (as I mentioned above) but had a myriad of shitty games along with it

Nope they stayed together and would scream at each other in the garage while the rest of us stayed upstairs shitting ourselves
Why are 5th gen babies still fighting over graphics? It's been 20 years already. Same goes for the fags still having console wars over the SNES and Genesis.
>>343923374
Nope they were still together back then and we were extremely poor as well. So I had to save up for a year and a half of pocket money, doing chores and the like just to save up for half of one. I still remember the euphoric elation I felt the morning I opened it up on my birthday.
>>343963894
More stylized, cartoony graphics stand the test of time better than what seemed realistic back in the day. It's why the original Wind Waker still looks good, and a game like Warhawk looks like trash now.
>>343962305
dr.pepper is the only pop I drink most other ones give me a stomach ache
>>343965436
Every console had stylized looking games, though. Off the top of my head, PS2 had Okami and Katamari Damaicy (however its fucking spelled), and Xbox had Fable TLC (not the same kind of stylized, but still incredibly so, which was botched in the 360 remaster) and JSRF.
Every console also had games that look like fucking garbage to this day. The Wii had mostly garbage looking games, but the garbage effect was enhanced by the system being a generation behind.

Try playing on an actual system with a CRT, not an emulator on a stretched out aspect ratio LED/LCD flat screen.

Sure, every console had them, but what he's saying is that Wii had them in spades, which is true for the most part. It was associated with more cartoony, kiddie looking games. PS360 were associated with realistic looking games. They had the likes of Pupeetier, but they obviously weren't really the focal point of the systems
Outside of the pre-rendered backgrounds that were used for most of Square's RPGs, PS1 games didn't really look that impressive.
