One of the most significant differences between 5th and 6th gen graphics is that in the 5th gen graphics got worse the closer the camera got. Either a pixelated or a blurred mess, depending on the hardware. 6th gen graphics usually make use of mipmapping to make things look more detailed when getting closer. However, this is one thing you can't really see in the videos you posted as Pilotwings is a game where you spend most of the time in the air and pretty much anything is in the distance. Other improvements are higher polygon count, more objects in the landscape, bigger draw distance, better textures, better lighting, better water, better effects. Sometimes it's not easy to spot these things in short scenes of gameplay, especially in the case of Pilotwings. At first glance it may look like Resort isn't much of an improvement over 64, but I assure that that is not the case. |
Cool, good post.
