I think there is a difference between promising something that was technically impossible within the limitations of the PS2, compared to a technology that is more than capable to be used, but declared not financally viable enough to pursue.

There is a reason they dropped it.

You obviously don't remember the pre-N64 hype do you? Project Reality ring any bells?
"The venture known as Project Reality, will create Nintendo's next generation gaming system and combine three-dimensional graphics of the quality seen in films such as Jurassic Park and Terminator 2, with high- fidelity sound and an interaction speed around 10-15 times faster than the current 16-bit games."
Project Reality, the first application of Nintendo's Reality Immersion Technology, will allow video game players to interact with virtual, infinitely evolving worlds which react instantaneously to their commands and whims."
"Nintendo reckons the work with Silicon Graphics will enable it to skip a generation "

Wait, your Nintendo 64 didn't do all of those things? Did you get the Acid Expansion pack? That was where it was at.

You know what, I take it back. It really was like you were in Jurassic Park.


Turok!! Oh my god that game was so epic at the time. I do remember the hype for 64, it was going to be better than that time the priest touched my wiener, total letdown.....

The quote I saw didn't talk about graphics quality, rather graphic techniques used in such films. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the technique they were mentioning from Terminator 2 was polygon mirroring, the technique that makes Metal Mario look....metal. Not sure what technique they were talking about in Jurassic park, though
As for "allow video game players to interact with virtual, infinitely evolving worlds which react instantaneously to their commands and whims", that's called a state machine. They're in all games, so it's basically like saying "The Nintendo 64 can play games".
I'd love to see the "skip a generation" quote. Not because I don't believe you, just for the fact that Sony thought they could do the same thing with the PS3.
