Which PS1 game has the best graphics?

Symphony of the Night
For best 3D graphics, Einhander (or Tekken 3 if you can tolerate the interlacing).

Spyro 3 IMO. It just looks wonderful.

Can't say artistically but Delta Force Urban Warfare is the most impressive for me technically; that or the insane draw distance one, can't remember the name

The FMVs in FF9 looked pretty amazing for the time.
The rest of the game looked nice too, still does in my opinion.
Any game that's mainly 2D.
>>2910297Looks like unfinished South Park game without South Park
Vagrant Story looks pretty damn impressive for PS1.
Wipeout 3 is pretty awesome. Pictures alone don't do it justice.

Ridge Racer Type 4 is probably my number 1 visually, but it cheats a lot (I don't think I've ever gotten more than 3 cars on screen ever, including your own, on a track with 8). Still, it's extremely stylish, Namco in top form. Environments are extremely detailed, cars gleam with a decent reflection mapping implementation, and they look quite nice, good detail.
Wipeout 3 is a close second. The ship models are pretty lo-poly, but all of them can be on screen.
The environments are detailed and the game runs with high horizontal resolution (IIRC, it runs at 512x224 in NTSC).
Also has a ton of style to it.
Omega Boost is my third. Very, very impressive lighting effects at all points, nicely detailed models. Oozes with style, particularly due to the lighting. Gets quite a few objects on screen.

never liked how people looked up close in Vagrant Story, but it's a damn pretty game for the machine
it's got pretty nice lighting in particular
Hard to say as the best graphics of the '90s were from arcade games.
Let me throw my hat in for Jurassic Park: The Lost World from 1997.

Like most 5th gen 3D games it looks much better in pictures than it does in motion.
It's the only game series that could pass for PS2/PSP games.
MGS1. Just finished replaying it again and hot diggity damn.

Can't say I agree with that but I still do think the Crash games are pretty good looking.

Definitely a contender. The clean aesthetics work really well with the Playstation's limitations.

Wasn't that Delta Force game also on the PS2?
