What was the last /vr/ game that truly blew your mind?
>>11215987Blew my mind at how buggy and shitty it was and still is, with save breaking issues that no one can or bothers to fix. In comparison to this, Daggerfall was a relatively smooth and bug free experience.
>>11215987Crysis PC
>>11215987Because of how basic bitch the gameplay and combat is and how bad the writing in face of the crazy popularity
>>11215987Oblivionblew my mind how a game with a budget as high as this graphics as good as this and interactive open world as huge as this was completely ruined by the shitty level scalling
>>11215987It was many years ago and it was>Xcom:ufo defence!It was so detailed, brutal and simple on its surface. I must of played it for 10 hours straight.
>>11215987this image looks suspiciously fake
>>11216017Agreed. Lacking dust or cheeto remains.
>>11216008game still looks good 17 years later, better than many modern games. in addition to the physics engine being more robust and full of features than said modern games. it's incredible how far we've regressed. i had this video downloaded pre-youtube and i watched this countless timeshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTj_I-iCzqY
>>11216019Look at the reflection of the controllers.
mgs3's framerate on original hardware blew my mind
>>11216024Cutscenes run in slower framerate as a design choice. Actual gameplay is smooth and I only remember it going down during the jeep portion near the end.That being said, it's still jarring after playing MGS2 in 60fps.
>>11216027>Cutscenes run in slower framerate as a design choice.lmao. just lmao.
>>11215987>No memory card in the slot>Tiny rubik's cubeThis is a staged photo right? Anyway my pick is gran turismo 4 which I'm currently replaying. The attention to detail and love that went in to that game is insane.>>11216017Glad it's not just me that thought it
>>11216027>it's a design choice that the framerate dips to 6 frames when there is an explosion
>>11215987Unironically, Crash Bandicoot. When I realized how the game was trying to make me rely on my own depth perception to play well, it blew my mind. Most 3D games don't do this. It felt like I was having a dialogue with the developers every time I reached a new part of a stage.
Powerdrift in the arcades, during Segas peak.my young mind was blown by how fast the 3D was the size of the sprites, with home machine at the time being a Commdore 64
>>11216050Alright so now I'm noticing even more stuff like the bottom technics box being suspiciously vibrant yet flat compared to the technics box above it. The box above angled perfectly flat on top of it, an extreme lack of shadows such as the lego boxes, the coke bottle, the asteroids game being obvious, then the unmatched reflection of the controllers in the TV screen relative to their position on the desk. I think this is an AI generated image that's then been shopped or just a terribly shopped image.
>>11216027it craps itself during gameplay too if there are too many enemies are too much vegetation
>>11216061Just look at the controllers and the short cables. Dualshocks don't look like that.Even that Spyro has the EUR rating on a US box.
>>11215996I only get 'blown away' by how mid and boring games are that get constant praise online. Taught me to never expect anything
Usually just written off as a shallow dungeon delver.It definitely is a dungeon delver, but it's a damn good one. Feels more like classic D&D with a loose but compelling plot, and just go figure out how to solve it.Ironically I feel it's a true successor to the Gold Box games more than BG, which is great, but the storyline centered on one person is very against the tabletop game, given that each player needs to be equally important.
>>11215987Skyblazer
>>11216117kusoge
>>11216017>>11216050yeah at first I thought it was just staged (Atari, Famicom and Playstation all in one shot), but looks like it's at least photoshopped.
Dynamite Headdy with how creative it is and all the cool graphical effects in the game.
>>11215987banjo tooie is currently blowing my mind. yes I am a man child
>>11216119Nah you are
>>11215987Onimusha 2.Game is a masterpiece
>>11215987c12
Probably god of war 2.
The 1987 version of Minecraft....oops, sorry....Driller for the ZX Spectrum 48K.
>>11215987The cable in that controller on the left is getting ruined
>>11216017It's staged as hell, there's a carefully placed 2600, one game case left flopped open for no reason, not a speck of dust anywhere, and they inexplicably have two Dual Analogs with the longer grip handles
>>11215987I was blown away by how good TECMO World Cup '93 on Master System was, it makes all the other football/soccer titles on the console look like they came straight out of an Atari, and it's a treat to play with how it feels 16-Bit in place, I'd go as far as to say that lots of Mega Drive/SNES titles feel inferior to it despite the hardware, I can't recommend this enough for sports fans.It's got a good FOV while having good sprites to it, you can set up your formation and tactics, the players have a number over their head to indicate their shirt number. A lot of advanced stuff then.
>>11215987I'm playing symphony of the night for the first time and holy shit the inverted castle got me good >save file goes above 100% completion kino
Half life 2
>>11216024This game was how I learned what frame rates are. ‘Sure, this game looks way better than 2 but why does it run so slow and shitty comparatively?’
>>11216103>midSheesh fr fr no cap on god
>>11216017The Dualshock cord lengths give it away.
>>11216778playing through it blind for the first time is one of my favorite gaming experiences.
>>11215987Played it for the first time a little over a year ago, I hadn't liked a game so much in ages, it easily became one of my all time favorites. The PS2 sequel was fantastic too.
>>11216395Isn't somebody going to tell me how terrible this game is? No?
>>11215987been playing it for a month with my gf, I never expected it to be so addictive, sovlful and based. this game was so far ahead of its time its insanewhen was my mind absolutely blown? when I met Totakeke. Hourly music was already perfect, but never expected they could cram in there some fucking legendary songwriter NPC singing nonsense with such genius. First he sang Lullaby, and I thought it was already game over, and when I wanted to hear it again he went for fucking Steppe. Man what an emotional ride that was, but he handed the cassette and I ran home to hear it... it was an arranged filtered-radio versionif you've ever digged any wild musical scene you know the devs did too, or read enough about it
>>11215987Baroque on PSX. Surreal roguelite from 1998. Played it completely blind based on a recommendation and ate it up. The game slowly doles out metaknowledge based on your investigations that would ruin it if you knew it from the start. The Saturn version looks better but I didn't know.
>>11216963For me, I was unlucky enough to grow up with Rareware n64 games so I knew right away what shit framerate is.
>>11215987This image looks really weird. Is it AI generated?
>>11217345AI images usually have a lot of errors with text. This was CGI done by someone.
>>11216393this
>>112160202007 was the everything peak, nothing but downhill from there.
>>11216013It's one of the comfiest games ever but you can't actually play the fucking thing. Sure you can pull out a spreadsheet and figure it out but it's trash. I've tried modding a better system in the past but never had much luck
>>11215987It's the coke bottle that makes it cringe
>>11215987I thought I experienced everything but I played this arcade game called Major Havok from 1984 a couple of years ago, it starts off with shooting but it has some platforming and exploration. The vector graphics animate really smoothly, it came with the VCS and the emulator has a real nice looking glow around the lines.>>11216058On 3ds its amazing along with Thunder blade. I actually played this game once as a kid and thought it just looked really blocky. I considered it bad looking but this was when Daytona was out. I still tried it because it was a cheaper game and the course looked cool, I barely managed 2 laps. This game reverse aged, it looks better now than it did back then.
>>11216171never played it, but that’s badass. gonna try it
i tried deception 2 on a whim a while back and i thought it was the coolest shit.
>>11217423I knew something was off about it. It was the PS1 controllers having an odd shape that gave it away.
>>11215987Staged nostalgia bait pictures like this are so fucking gay
>>11215987Maybe Oblivion. It's amazing how I can just play the game non stop because of the music and environments despite the fact that a lot of the quests feel utterly pointless and combat sucks. The game is so much better if you don't fast travel and spend most of your time just running back and forth, avoiding combat where you can. At least the side quests have interesting stories and characters for the most part. Always end up sliding the difficulty down late game because combat in no way feels rewarding.
>>11217801You're not wrong.
Super Metroid on Emulator with max settings
>>11215987Probably Klonoa.
>>11217884My brother.
>>11216017The game cases are also American, but the being played is PAL.
Still looking for a game that hits the same notes as this
