Primative 3d stuff seems pretty win!

Lately I've been really impressed by some of the older playstation and N64 game's 3d graphics. They had a ton of limitations at the time and they worked through those limitations to make really awesome games! The graphics might not have been as good as the 360 or whatever but they still had this style to them that worked just about as good as most modern games do if not better.

For example Megaman Legends and Silent Hill,









Low poly yes, but still both games had an awesome atmosphere, Those developers didn't let those limitations stop them, They just used what they had and did the best job they could do. I don't think you should ever let limitations keep you down, Just do the best you can do and see how far the best can go!

I kinda get the feeling that a a good amount of modern stuff doesn't try to do it's best anymore, they don't try to fine-tune the feel, the atmosphere any more, They just throw more polys at the problem,
A lot of old games had objects that were basically modified 3d primatives but they still would have a really strong style!

So yeah, Me + Getting excited over old stuff ='s blog post!
Thanks for reading,

and honorable mention goes too..
