By the end of this one you are strafing around the streets dodging airstrikes, dueling with mechs, and destroying enemy bases, all in glorious texture mapped 3D on the 32X.

What other pre-5th gen console games pulled off 3D action this well? Pre-1996 computer games are welcome as well.

The frame rate isn't great but it isn't half bad. Its not like it's running on the Freescape engine like pic related, but even then Driller is still an excellent game.

Ghost in the Shell on PS1 is an underrated classic

No one complained about frame rate back then, zoomer. It was all about the graphics.

Yeah they did. They just called it slow down, or it being choppy.

It wasn't a common complaint back then. In fact, slowdown wasn't either.
Complaining about framerate is something more akin to modern times, when games got very homogenized so people had to start grasping at technical straws to make critiques and tell games apart.

This. Reminds me of how much I loved Stunt Race FX and still do, while everyone rees "THIS GAME DID NOT AGE WELL" when they talk about the frame rate.

This anon is right. There were games that had great framerate and were ignored over choppy games. I clearly remember Doom running like ass by today's standards and obviously everyone loved it.

This is so true. Slowdown caused by having lots of sprites or polygons on screen was widely accepted as simply a part of gaming.
These idiots going back and post-judging these games according to the merits of the modern PCmasterrace shithead are well, idiots.
