What's a game that has fantastic gameplay despite its shit tier graphics?

>>	Anonymous Wed, Mar 30, 2016 22:31:42 No.3102969 define shit tier. are we talking about 3d games only? I don't think it's fair to count 2d games as shit tier.

>>	Anonymous Wed, Mar 30, 2016 22:35:30 No.3102976 >>3102969 Most likely 3D, since retro 3D titles are bad in appearance. There are some putrid 2d games though.

>>	Anonymous Wed, Mar 30, 2016 23:24:27 No.3103087 ASCII games essentially have no graphics, do they count as 'shit tier' ? If so then Rogue is a good game that has 'shit tier' graphics.

F Zero X

I think it's the best racing game of that generation, but looks pretty shitty.

>I can't beat final difficulty to unlock the 3rd menu screen, is it possible without cheatohs?
Yeah, plenty of people have done it. F-Zero X has a very high skill ceiling so it takes some practice and deeper mechanical knowledge, but it's doable for sure. The best players find it trivially easy.

Pretty much the entire Genesis library.

Many titles had great gameplay but shit-tier graphics and sound compared to its SNES counterparts, and often the TG16 as well.

Stunts for DOS. Absolutely a fucking blast to play, has an awesome replay feature, and the track editor alone supplies you with endless fun. The graphics are pretty dated but the gameplay is solid to this day.
