Indeed, felt so proto-3D, like Starfox only with textures, and most of the games went from smooth 60fps with the 8-bit/16-bit console to most 3D games on the PS1 never managing to hit 30fps and looking like a wobbly murky mess with "experimental" control schemes that were just as horrible then as they are to anyone today. Felt like a step back for sure.

There are some really nice 2D games on the PS1 though, SotN being the most prominent with constantly being in the top 3 on lists and the Suikoden games leading the charge amongst the 2D JRPGs that there are a few of on the system.

The early 90s stuff still has comfy soul and spirit carried over from the 80s, it's about in 95 that flavor of pop-culture is slowly being replaced by more edgy, "serious" and monochrome color-grading (green, blue, orange) looking shaky-cam cinema with practical effects getting completely left behind for tacky and jarring "SFX". Again the divide between first and second half of the 90s is really evident, just as in console games going from 2D to 3D at the time.
