/vr/ - Retro Games

2 is one of my favourite PSX games.

I can't stand 1 anymore.

Nothing

Definitely Parasite Eve 2, because on top of being highly detailed, it uses every possible trick in the book, mirror reflections, panning, adding particles / smoke effects to make the background alive, smooth transitions from FMV to backgrounds, but also having several versions of the same backgrounds for instance night/day or a destroyed variants after shit went down, probably some other I'm forgetting right now

As a result it really makes the pre-rendered backgrounds really come alive instead of just being 3D models walking on still pictures

The only shitty thing about the ending is getting the ice for pierce 3 times, everything else isn't a problem

What do you mean impressive?
Technically speaking Parasite Eve II was the best of the era, better than a lot of PS2 games too; because all the stuff the game pulled off

Pic related, incorporating the FMV right in the middle of the pre rendered background. Onimusha copied this technique but it didn't look nearly as seemless.

You should say FC/NES considering they had quite a few NES games unreleased in Japan

PE2 does tons of great things, it pushes the concept of pre-rendered backgrounds to its maximum: it has scrolling, seemless transitions between FMV and backgrounds, mirror effects, and plenty more details to make the backgrounds come alive. Not even Onimusha does as much.
