Eh, looking at MGS2, 3, God of War 2 at the time. There were some technically amazing looking games on PS2. It's not hard to believe that people would think PS2 was more powerful than GCN, especially in the beginning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I call bullshit, I knew the PlayStation 2 had aliasing problems the Dreamcast didn't even like 9 months before it came out. There was no confusion flying around, I mean the GC launched with Rogue Leader for crying out loud which was one of the most technically impressive games of the generation. People knew where it stood in the pecking order. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A GC launch game (Rouge Leader) ended that from the Jump. Only delusional people argued that. Edited June 18, 2019 by Goukosan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yea, but none of that means shit when your games generally look like shit. MGS2 and 3 look better than most everything on GCN.. who the fuck you idiots think you're kidding?

RE-make RE4 Metroid Prime MGS Twin Snakes Rouge Leader Star Fox Adventures Soul Caliber II all looked better Edited June 18, 2019 by Goukosan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly nothing that demonstrates that GCN was significantly more powerful... PS2 was getting the impressive looking games.. while GCN got shit 3rd party support and Nintendo games... come the fuck on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All you are doing is proving Aza's point that some people actually believed the PS2 was stronger..... even though a freaking launch game on GCN ended up looking better than the PS2's entire library Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,732 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 GameCube was a purple lunchbox while PS2 was used by Saddam to launch missiles. What did the average casual think was more powerful? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's not Aza's point... It's my point as well... because it had much better games visually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Playstation Tablet 1,732 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 PS2 had a huge memory bandwidth advantage over GC and XBox though. It's why stuff like MGS2 or SH2 have framerate issues and graphics downgrade. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Watch DFs retro video on it.... they talk about Rouge from 18.37 Some key points form the video. "Now this is a technical tour de force" 1) At the time on a CRT television the visuals were SHOCKINGLY FILM LIKE,............ high quality textures and assets on all vehicles. 2) Incredibly high Triangle count for it's time (highest of the gen until RE4)* 3) Full Self shadowing on ALL objects. 4) Ambient lighting on lasers. 5) High Quality bump mapping (Something the PS2 lacked) 6) 8 texture layers in 16 stages in one pass (something PS2 couldn't dream of doing) 7) Programmable Shader effects - Volumetric fog. 8) All at 60fps.
