And it feels more like a 2D game at times. --- Quote from: Ian Sane on February 02, 2016, 04:35:46 PM ---an online game like Final Fantasy XI won't work now --- End quote --- Actually, the servers for this game are still up and running, so you could play now... but they will be finally shutting down in March. So this statement won't be true until about a month from now. I see your point though, and ironically the Wii will probably hold up best as a retro system since it offers lots of local multiplayer and few games have updates or patches. |

Off the top of my head: Resident Evil 4 (A influential and excellently made game) Windwaker (An art style and mood that stands the test of time) Jak and Daxter (Best 3D platformer of the generation?) Beyond Good and Evil (The best Ubisoft game ever) Black (An underrated console FPS, that did a lot in area of production quality) Soul Calibur 1 and 2 (My favorite 3D fighters) Monkey Ball games (Oh man, these were great. and hard! and great.) |

Hm. It's sad to see so much talk of a "last great generation". |
| Ian Sane:
The sixth gen was also the last one with a really noticeable difference in the graphics quality between generations. The first time I saw Dreamcast launch games I was blown away. You would never confuse a fifth and sixth gen game. You could instantly identify the generation by a screenshot. I can tell the difference between a sixth and seventh gen game and it is pretty damn obvious when you go back and play sixth gen consoles, but when those first Xbox 360 screenshots came out it was like "uh, that is better, isn't it?" There is improvement and it became more obvious as the generation went on but it wasn't this obvious jump up like we had had in prior generations. This was going to happen at some point. Graphics can only get so good. Still it was really fun in the old days when you would observe a huge jump each time. |
