Re4 is GameCube

>>749060341
Get fukt GayCube fag

The Simpsons Hit and Run holds up
>>
>>749060303
The original Star Wars Battlefront games
>>
I would consider RE4 more of a Gamecube game desu. I had both the Gamecube and PS2 so I'm not some sort of PS2 hater or anything. In a similar fashion I would consider Splinter Cell more of an Xbox game even though it was on Gamecube and PS2 as well and I didn't even have an Xbox.

Not him but the Gamecube wasnt even expensive lol. I remember getting 1 for like 100 bucks in 2002. I dunno why more people didnt just buy one as a 2nd machine for the exclusive games.

Sorry what am I supposed to be seeing here? Is it the jackets being slightly different colours?

That was the wrong one, here's the correct version.
>>
>>749060929
PS2 having worse texture work, damaging the colors, and that horrible Leon hair modeling.
>>
I mean how strict about this would you want to be? Would you want to exclude PS2 games that got ported to steam later like the Devil May Cry games and RE4 and the Metal Gear Solid games?
>>
>>749061091
Everything is clear and has contrast in the PS2 version. The GCN version looks like it has anti-soul fog.
>>
>>749061091
oh yeah I see it now
>>
>>749061091
The gamecube also ran cutscenes in real time so cutscenes could include different outfits while the ps2 was stuck with default options.
>>
Wasnt the only really bad thing about the PS2 version of re4 that the cut scenes were in worse quality and the audio was worse quality? Like it was still pretty much the same as the Gamecube version I think. I only had the Gamecube version so I never played the PS2 version personally to be sure.
>>
>>749061324
>>749061091
Also could render less stuff on screen.
>>749060542
>>
I dont even know why the cut scenes were shitter quality on ps2 version when the dvds had more space than the Gamecube discs.
>>
>>749061154
>The GCN version looks like it has anti-soul fog
As it was the the way the game was originally designed and meant to be experienced. PS2 was a downgrade where the fog was result of poor porting and hardware for the software being ported
>>
They definitely rushed the ps2 version. They could have made it on par with the Gamecube version if they were given more time.
>>
>>749061324
It was worse in every way, not only graphically, but in terms of loading times and amount of enemies on screen. The only good thing the PS2 version had was Separate Ways which was added in all of the ports anyway. The only reason why the PS2 got RE4 was because Sony threw a temper tantrum the same way they did with Sonic Heroes which compromised that game's development and still gave the PS2 the worst version of the three available consoles at the time.
>>
>>749061708
Surely it was more Capcom management freaking out about missing out on all the potential ps2 sales rather than sony seething

Also the PS2 textures have less color depth, with some of them becoming practically monochrome

I have cubie fatigue.

Games don't age, you're just a casual.

But RE4 is superior on the Gamecube...

It wasn't culturally relevant, I didn't learn the gamecube even existed until like halfway through the wii lifecycle

I'll be honest anons, with the current state of remakes and bad ports this kind of differences feel pretty minute and ignorable. If i can a video of one version and switch to the other every few scenes without noticing then i give it a pass.

>muh textures
I take it everyone in this thread is playing on a 5090 at 4k 240hz?
games don't count unless youre playing the best version of them afterall.

Graphical fidelity ≠ art style
The GameCube's assets and visuals represent the devs' vision as intended

It's the modern games that are struggling to hold up against the PS2 classics

Basically all of them still hold up -- but it helps a lot if you emulate, because then it can run at a decent resolution.

That's like saying RE2 is an N64 game.

Bullshit. It's a classic along with vice city on

(The list had to be split in genres because a single page would be too unwieldy and pics would fail to load. That's how fuckhuge the PS2's library is.)
