I think many missed the point or i failed to deliver it.
It's not what whe think now its about back then.

Why did we back then consider the ps1/n64 graphics better(or at least we where just hyped about it being 3d?) When in reality most of it wasnt.

I understand the shift between 2d to 3d whas massive at the time,that whas the whole selling point,but in term of graphics it feels like a big step down.

Just a thought i had yesterday thou, still love playing on the ps1 and as some mentioned games like suikoden2/breath of fire 3/ castlevania symphony of the nigh DOES stand the test of time  better.

Because unlocking the 3rd dimension was magic that changed gaming forever. CGI cutscenes and voice acting also got gaming closer to movies, which was unimaginable.

Games with prerendered backgrounds still look good to me. Chrono Cross is stunning, an audiovisual masterpiece.
