if anyone is curious how to make a texture look like it does on psx by hand, it's pretty simple, rather than using a perspective tool on a square texture, you need to scale/rotate/skew two triangular textures (two copies cut into triangles) (or in my case be lazy and use the perspective tool and just visually make them close to a parallelogram)

>> No.6529282

>>6529270
(oh, and op's example of a flat texture is a poor example, since any texture being viewed head-on looks perfect on the psx, since it can do scaling and rotation properly, it's only off-axis textures that look wrong)

What is a "real triangle", and why does that matter?

The saturn has a ton of flaws, but nothing says "I don't know what I'm talking about" quite like people saying "it's not really 3d because it just draws distorted sprites!!".
The saturn's graphics hardware is 2D for the same reason the ps1's is, and it has nothing to do with the graphics primitives either system renders.

Compared to the low color depth and vertex snap, the affline texture thing isn't that big of a deal. Most games just tessellated the surfaces near the player anyway.

The best games on each console are excellent and equal in quality, but the PS1's library is just so much larger and more varied that I have to give it the win. The lack of third party support and the total lack of RPGs really hurt the N64, with nearly all of its best titles being from one of their flagship franchises.

I'd probably give the N64 the slight edge in terms of platformers, although it's not like the PS1 was any kind of slouch in that regard. It also had the better shooters, with the caveat that a lot of those early console FPS didn't stand the test of time magnificently, in my opinion. But in basically every other genre, from fighting games to RPGs to racing games, the PS1 wins out by a longshot. It even had a wider selection of quirky, experimental stuff like Kula World or Oddworld.

To its credit, though, I do think that the N64's four-player multiplayer, combined with awesome stuff like MK64 and SSB64, made it the more fun system if you were hanging out with your friends, so that's a definite point in its favor.

Yeah, a shame for the kids who couldn't own it as kids and couldn't have some of the most acclaimed titles of the generation + 4P multiplayer.
The fact there's Sony fans to this day are angry about the N64 is proof enough that it has good games. Sony fans may be rabid fanboys, but somehow they can smell good games, especially when they're not available on Sony systems, and their screech is very audible.

Obviously the arcade board designed to play KI is going to play KI better than the N64. Killer Instinct 1&2 use pre rendered assets loaded from a harddrive, with the lack of storage size, being designed as a 3D console and lack of dedicated sound hardware it's impressive KI Gold is as good as it is. Kim Wu's stage looks better on N64 since it is full 3D and that's what the N64 was good at.
