Games Old School
I have trouble finding game pics from the 80's, so I figure I just post pics of semi-recent games. It's interesting, as some of these games are ugly compared to today's stuff. Take WWF Attitude ('98) for instance.
![]() Once upon a time this was hot shit to some of you. Just look at those visuals. Hell, look at everything; their wasn't even a ramp!! |

Perfect Dark, which had a multiplayer mode that could surpass Halo 2 if updated for the present. This game was solid platinum.
![]() ![]() A ^shot^ of the 2 Player co-op, that in my oppinion; was better done than Halo 2's. ![]() Let it be known, kids; duel wielding ain't nuthun new. You think Halo's pressence on XBox has something to do with Perfect Dark Zero's hold? |

Top Gear Rally ('97) had one thing going for it, custom decals. You could use a paint program to drees your cars in ways still unseen in the likes of NFS:Underground.
![]() There was also a beautiful track that played during the idle demo screen. And the frame rate was great. |

When Zelda was announced for the "Ultra 64", it wasn't the work of art we all know it became.

Before Konami took it to PS2, a 3D Castlevania came out for the N64. It didn't get a good rep, but I liked it. I still think it had some great cinematics.
![]() ![]() It had a day/night cycle that you hardly noticed, because the environment barely went a shade darker. The indoor settings looked much better than the outdoor. ![]() Not by much, though. This game had a sequel, but you can look at these scenes and imagine a different main character for visuals. |

Mace: The Dark Age; Oh my God this fighting game was SOOOO underrated. Free roaming movement, interactive backrounds, stage fatalities, weapon combat, sweet animation, DAMN! This game had ALOT of things 3D fighting games swear they invented these days.
![]() ![]() ^ Doesn't that select screen look familiar..? ![]() ^ ![]() ![]() This game came from Midway, future parents of today's Mortal Kombat games. |

Fighter's Destiny; the most original fighting game this decade and I swear by that. It had a point system for the common 3D fighting actions, counter hits, special moves, throws. It was very competitive and I'd use it to teach non-fighting gamers to play 3D fighting games. It was that technical. A sequel came later, but didn't have the same impact.
![]() ![]() ![]() The point system was cutomizable, so if you felt a throw was worth 8 points, let it be. |

Bushido Blade.
![]() ![]() I'm actually considering getting this game to play on my PS2 for it's collectors value alone. Me and my buddy's made the free form fights an art beyond what the developers probably intented. That's what happened when you put it in the hands of anime fans! ![]() |

If you don't know the beauty that is Rival Schools I order you to find a copy for the Playstation and play it. Very Classic.
Ever wondered who that Kyosuke guy in Capcom vs SNK 2 is? That's him in the blue. ^ |

This was Fear Effect. ![]() ![]() ![]() ^ For a time, the main chick went about the game in little more than a towel (she's in blue). ![]() ^ In this shot from part two, we have a situation that I'd pay money to hear what dudes explained to their mother/sisters walking in on. |

Fighter's Destiny was awesome, except for the fact that the guy I used to play with had a move that was never blocked or countered, and if you did it repeatedly you would never lose (against the computer anyway).

Super Metroid was like... God. The first Ninja Turtles was GTA before GTA in the sense that it was actually semi-open ended. And that underwater was the DEVIL!! I'm gonna start posting old games and their new sequals soon.
