Yeah.
Even the original is probably the best-looking N64 game.

I'm impressed, not even the Zelda games look this good.

Not Star Fox
Less impressive after seeing Starblade

Doom 3

The turbo tunnel in this game looks awesome too

>>11855951
I played this game for the first time a few months ago and wondered how this was an n64 game once I got to this boss fight. Looks like a dreamcast game

>>11856426
maybe in terms of polycount, but the muddy vaseline textures instantly give it away as an N64 game t.b.h.

>>11855938 (OP)

>>11856435
I played on a CRT with an emulator and the n64 blur turned off. So no n64 vaseline. The textures are definitely way worse than dreamcast but the darker parts of the game help hide that

Being released for computers in November 2007, right before the December cut-off, this is a retro game.

none of the 3d shit posted in this thread will ever be as impressive or as aesthetically pleasing as 16-bit sprite perfection.

>>11855951
Holy shit, not even Nintendo made something this good looking.

Holy samefag. Stop pretending this is the first time you've ever seen this game.

>>11855951
It benefited a lot from being in development hell, and also the fact it was the last n64 game made by a devs who were known for pushing the n64 hardware.
Total lightning in a bottle scenario.

>>11856062
Is it weird that I thought this game was meh on PC but the idea of playing it on Xbox makes it seem more fun?

>>11856692
Did you forget this board was flooded with zoomers when they let the gamecube ps2 and xbox on?

>>11856062
I doubt it's ray tracing. Even SSR. They probably just mirror the final image and emplace it over the puddles. With fixed camera angles it's easy to make sure you wouldn't need to do ray traces like SSR does.

>>11856457
Why would this be the stand out game and not Tekken 5?

>>11856062
>The RTX in Cold Fear (Xbox) Is incredible.
Jesus Christ I hope you're being ironic because I had a long drawn out argument with a fucking retard at work recently who insisted that my new AMD graphic card can't do ray tracing because it doesn't have RTX.

>>11855951
Nice frame rate bro

Conker looks good and runs okay on N64 because it came out after Banjo Tooie. Tooie uses all the same hardware tricks, but was considerably more ambitious and overtaxes the hardware to a degree, so they knew what they needed to dial back on.

>>11855938 (OP)
Too bad the artstyle looks retarded.

Painfully cringe

>>11857141
I was expecting it to grind knowing Rare's acceptance of that in other games, but it didn't. Did you not bother to watch the webm and just assumed?

>>11856062
>that shadow
What's even the point of faking reflections if the lighting and shadow are completely static.

This looks like absolute shit. Evergrace blows this out of the water

>>11857124
that's why these marketing terms exist. normalfags are easy to mislead.

I love how the game is dripping with soul

>>11855938 (OP)
It is interesting how Rare tried to implement 'fur shadder' effects into their games at that point in time. Star Fox Adventures being the first to implement such an effect in real time. I always thought the effect looked really good for console gen 6 era visuals. I don;t see many games that try to implement an effect like this.

>>11855951
why am i the only one who thinks this looks like sh*t :|

>>11855994
chaos theory is underrated in how hard its graphics went, for the time

>>11855994
2000s Ubisoft was the best in the business when it came to graphics and consistency. Other studios might have had better artists, but Ubisoft was the best when it came to squeezing performance out of the hardware consistently.
The only other real contender at the time was Valve getting HL2's physics to run on the OG xbox, but they spent years building up to that while Ubisoft was consistently releasing crazy shit year over year.

>>11859350
Because you're a zoomer who hasn't played many N64 games? Just a guess.

>>11855962
conker devs were on something else

>>11856046
can't believe people thought this needed a remake

The NES's PPU had no functions to just draw single pixels, lines, or ability to rotate images other than flipping them completely horizontally or vertically.

The devs of Elite didn't care after having already crammed eight star systems with 256 stars each into 20KB of space on the original BBC Micro version of the game.

>>11861291
Yeah, still looks great. Only the tank controls are the actual issue.

>>11856062
I'm amazed at how much 3d is being rendered by AMD's 3D VCache.

>>11859350
It's pretty common that people are unable to identify quality.

>>11861318
Playing it overclocked on an emulator is kind of cool.

>>11861318
Has anyone ever figured out how to get this working on an NTSC console? I heard the original programmers only got it working on PAL due to PAL's lower refresh rate.

>>11861429
I'm sure it's graphically impressive, it's just an ugly and rather colorless scene.

>>11861495
>colorless
So what colours should you be looking at? Bear in mind I'm already giving you enough of a (You) considering you had to self-censor your first post.

I'm only posting this in this thread specifically because it's currently the top post, and this isn't worth making a whole thread to ask... but how long has this board existed? I've noticed it a few times in the board list at the top, but erroneously assumed it was for virtual reality games.

>>11861429

Skill issue.

>>11861491
No idea, but I would not be surprised if that was the case, it was a thing for some other software in the past, even for current homebrew. IIRC that Overdrive 2 demoscene only works properly on PAL (A LOT of people miss that "No Borders" effect when running it on emulators that are less accurate or in NTSC mode) and that Commodore64 port of Sonic runs slow on an NTSC C64 (though it can run full speed on a C128).

From what I understand they were basically rendering all of the graphics in software on the CPU, so without a co-processor or something on the cart it's possible the NES can't handle the game at anything faster. Though I think the way the NES worked was that the PAL systems had the CPU actually run slightly slower (Though the PPU had to update slightly less often per CPU cycle), so maybe it would have been possible on NTSC anyway.

I am not sure how Rare was achieving the fur effects in Star Fox Adventures and Conquer Live and Reloaded. It looks almost like a voxel effect, but it may be tiny sprites stacked in a row. The lower resolution of a CRT TV screen should have also blurred the fur effect to make it look softer. It is a good effect. Looks better than the weird feather-fur seen in Donkey Kong Bananza. Rareware did it better on older hardware.

>>11861652
It looks like many small semi-translucent 2d textures layered on top of each other.

>>11861667
>It looks like many small semi-translucent 2d textures layered on top of each other.

Yeah, I think so too. I think the Donkey Kong Bonanza model uses the same effects. I still remember being impressed by the fur effect in Star Fox Adventures when I saw it for the first time. I think it is a good looking game overall. Rare has been using fur shaders in their Donkey Kong promotional renders since Diddy's Kong Quest. It was neat seeing this effect in real-time.

>>11861558
Case in point, you can only see high level concepts.

>>11861679
I think the bananza model doesn't use that technique actually. At least in the sense that the little sprites aren't translucent. They slap a lot of rim lighting on donkey kong and make him semi-reflective like he's made of plastic or wet or something.

>>11861652
>Conquer
It's CONQUEER! GET IT RIGHT!

>>11861627
I think tank controls are fine for fixed-camera games but not for a third-person game like RE4.

>>11860451
Bro, I was born 2004. I’m older than most people who visit this shit hole and older than some consoles you consider retro so sit the fuck down.

>what colours should you be looking at
More warm hues, like red or orange, coming off those fire particles. Sparks should give off different hues other than just plain stark white, as well. The environment is another boring "Rareware Industrial Shit Zone™" which they overwhelmingly cram into every single one of their games, and it looks uglier than a sewer level.
Literally any other example from Conker besides that slum of rusty iron shit in the webm would probably look better, yet I'm bewildered because everyone is slurping it up like it's the most delicious looking N64 game ever made from that one example. It looks worse than DK64's Jungle Japes for G*d's sake.

>>11862031
I'm about a decade older than you, so hush. I was actually alive during the N64's run.
