When magazines said that the PlayStation could do Toy Story/Jurassic Park/Terminator 2 graphics, this is what they were talking about.
>>
>>12095853
Sony claimed that the PS2 could render Toy Story in real time.
>>
We know, we were there. What's your point?
Every system ever has been over hyped in some way.
>>
It's just a video being played back, it was likely not rendered with a PS1. With more money they likely could have rendered toy story. It took sometimes more than a day to render one frame of the toy story movie, that wouldn't be worth.

Nobody does overyhype like Sony.

Tendies being little dishonest shits as usual and ignoring how hyped the Ultra 64 was, just to end up showing some badly rendered blocky polygons running at 10 fps when the real thing was out
>>
>>12097109
Nintendo was claiming that the N64 will be able to do "SGI level of graphics"

and I get it, with the bilinear filtering, on a 12" screen, from far away, and if you squint a little. Yeah.
>>
Looks good, your point?
>>
>>12095853
The PS1 wasn't actually producing those graphics though.
>>
>>12095859
Yep. It was PS2's claim. And I'd say they did a good job when considering DQ8 and FF12's graphics.
>>
>>12095859
Crazy Ken Kutaragi said that.
>>
>>12095859
They were barely able to do it in Kingdom Hearts 3 on PS4
>>
This is a funny thread. Good job, OP
>>
>>12098184
Wanna know something funnier? OP getting brapped into oblivion (and the retard complaining about "tendies" too).
*BRRRRRAAAAAAAAPPPPPPP*

>>12097328
So if the PS1 isn't a Silicon Valley workstation it's just a glorified VHS player?
>>
>>12098293
>a glorified VHS player

Betamax.

>>12098293
>Silicon Valley workstation
>>
>>12097136
reminds me of an issue of nintendo power advertising super mario rpg as a "3d adventure" while showing uncompressed SGI renders
>>
>>12097109
Rent.
Free.

Source

>>12099442
Not a source, but my Snoy-loving friend was repeating shit like in the runup to its release. I told him it was bullshit but he figured I was a salty Segafag because I had recently got a Dreamcast on closeout, as if I stopped being PC master race because I got a neat console and a bunch of games dirt cheap.
>>
>>12099459
And then everyone clapped.

>Hi I was not born in the 20th century but I'm going to act like I was

Are you retarded?

They literally never said this. Its an internet urban legend.

Sony said that the PS2 would be able to display "characters and scenes" that rivaled Toy Story. Microsoft's Xbox team was the group that actually claimed that their console could do Toy Story "in real time". As a side note, literally no one actually remembers how shitty the CG was in the original Toy Story, which is another reason this retarded "fact" refuses to die

>They literally never said this. Its an internet urban legend.

Magazines did say that, but not for the PSX. It was for the N64, which marketing was all about how it was using "the technology that made Jurassic Park possible".
I think that was OP's entire point, falseflagging bullshit to see who's retarded enough to believe everything they read in a 4chan OP.

In other words, /v/ tier shitpost.
