Yeah youre not even reading the post. I guess you still havent bothered to look up what perception means. The SNES and Mega Drive had different architectures too. The MD was much faster due to its processor, but the SNES had much better sprite capabilities and Mode 7. Believe it or not this also meant they were able to run different types of game better than the other.

If you cant grasp this simple concept, there is no point continuing further.

As for eye sight. Yeah, has no impact on how something is perceived to look. I hated the grainy warping rendering on the ps1. A lot of people actually preferred it due to the realism they felt it added. 60fps doesnt make a game look better, but makes it play a lot better.

Its not rocket science but you need to be able to look at a perspective beyond your own narrow ideals to be able to see this.

Again I was an N64 gamer bac then, but as these links show, plenty of people preferred the graphics provided in PS1 games.

Well, I'm not going to argue over the ps1 and n64, that's not even an argument, but the snes and genesis thing... lol. Come on dude. The Genesis couldn't run ANYTHING better than the snes. The snes had better sprite capabilities, that's what they both were, sprite pushers... the faster chip speed? Well, by that logic, the ps1 was infinitely inferior, for 2 reasons, it was only 32 bit, to the 64 bit chip, and ran at a slow 32 mhz, to the 90 mhz of the 64... but, let me get back to the gen-snes thing..... I'm guessing you believed in blast processing, huh. Lol. And stop with your, look up perception, it's just as retarded as your argument.

You may want to look up the dictionary definition of 'fact'.

It doesn't mean opinionated BS.

Eh, I think JohnLucas brings up solid points. I'm more convinced now of WiiU achieving first place, especially the" becoming everyone's secondary console" or the "power never wins" facts.

It's official: Akumu mode broke your brain.

You're not WRIGHT on this!

Ba-dum-tish! 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Fact: It takes a special kind of ...person to at this point take Johnlucas for more than an easy source for a good laugh ince in a while. Also writing huge walls of texts about them doesn't make your points any better nor does it make you appear smarter, a stupid point is still stupid no matter how long you stretch it out.

U really are being pretty stubborn here. For people who know nothing of specs or the more technical parts of graphics, it comes down to what ur eyes see, AKA perception. On a technical level SNES & N64 were more powerful than their Sega/Sony counterparts but people don't see specs, they see what is displayed on the screen, in that case a game can look better than another despite being technically inferior.

Just like Nintendo games on the Wii U, due to artstyle and polish, some can rival PS4/XB1 based purely on visuals, not in terms of power or graphics but in terms of eyecandy.

That's all MikeRox is saying, despite being weaker, certain games were able to look better on PS1. Does Metal Gear Solid look better than Mario 64? It's up to perception/preference, do u prefer more gritty, realistic inspired artstyle or colorful, cartoony artstyles?

I am a pc master race gamer and my second system is PS4. I will never care about a system like the wii, my smartphone is more powerfull and i find most nintendo games childish. And i bought the ps4 because its the most powerfull console. So you are wrong on those two
