Like I said, Dreamcast was the first system with enough clout to run an open world properly. Absolutely nothing going on in OOT field, it's just a big room linking other dungeons. :p There were games like Driver 2 on PS1 as well, but it was really overambitious for the hardware.

Shenmue was in another league as far as interactivity with the environments and what was going on was concerned.

Shenmue is quite a terrible game (opinion, duh), I played it last month. The overworld in MM is ten times better.

OoT and MM easily aged a lot better than Shenmue.


Shenmue is a product of it's era. There is a reason I think Shenmue 3 is a bad idea.

It was mind blowing in 1999/2000. A Visual Tour de Force and unrivalled in it's level of detail and interactivity.

In 2015 it's a clunky game with much of it's wow factor stripped from it through age. As for OoT and MM aging well. Only if you play the remakes. The N64 versions are pretty horrific to play now at their stuttering framerates.
