Is the PSX version really bad compared to others?
>>
It's not the same game. Large portions of levels were taken out. The N64 was well-suited for 3D platformers, on PS with a few exceptions they look like ass. It was going to be an N64 exclusive at first and it shows.

But the Dreamcast is the definitive version.

or PC. it supports both directx and glide.
>>
>>3196096
It was ported to n64 after the initial design was for pc, the textures and map sizes were all shrunk for that console, the dreamcast version restored the original textures and is largely considered to be the best version of the game.

That was usually considered the PS1 Rayman 2 equivalent of that console ya know.

Does the dreamcast have that terrible hub world or is it just pick your stage and go?
>>
>>3196247
Dreamcast has an expanded hub world, N64 uses level select
>>
>>3196263
Then the PC version is the best, since it uses the level select. Seriously, that hub world is just terrible and harms the game.

See for yourself

The age old "let's hide flaws by making it darker so people can't see" trick.
>>
>>3196342
No, that's actually how it is. The N64 version is a little darker in Ly's prison room.

I'm guess that's because the N64 version has a more complete version of the lighting system while the Playstation version is simplified.

But the difference in polygon complexity is pretty obvious as it is.
