How did RE4 look so good for 2005? Nothing else was nearly on this level especially for a GameCube title.
>>12239038Well for starters, you're playing at 4K. The native resolution on the gamecube was 480p.
The models from that period of RE still look weird, especially the eyes.
>>12239038MGS2/3 and silent hill 2/3 looked just as good on the PS2 years earlier.
>>12239038I always assumed it was because of the forced letterbox.
>>12239089MGS3/SH3 are obviously worse, but still on the "could reasonably be confused for a 360/PS3 release title" level. MGS2 & SH2 both have a quintessentially sixth gen console look to them and comparing them to the other three games is laughable. Silent Hill 2 is particularly undeserving of its reputation for having amazing graphics for the time. It was certainly above average & made great use of its aesthetics & atmosphere, but I'm convinced that everyone who crows about its graphics are just confusing the pre-rendered cutscenes for real time.

and now the actual NGC screenshot
>>12239038crazy how powerful Gamecube was
>>12239038It still looks good. I prefer this to the Remake.
>>12239593nahGamecube run at 4k and extremely detailed textures.
>>12239038>How did RE4 look so good for 2005?>uses a widescreen pic took from an emulator
>>12240750I think you only got the emulator part correct
>second person chase cam with brown and grey setting It was new for RE, but that was in style at the time before the shaders and bloom effects brought back the colors.
>>12239038I remember when this game released.Nintendofags were SOO happy they finally got a good game after getting their asses kicked by Xbox and PS2 for such a long time.
>>12240784Too bad it sold poorlyNintendo players are very ungrateful. Got an exclusive game of this magnitude, a masterpiece... but nope: "I must play only nintendo games! yippeee!"
>>12240750What is this reaction image trying to convey?
>>12239038Good art direction. I think it's a good example of how a realistic style doesn't have to be automatically dated and ugly with time, as some insist, because Resident Evil 4 still looks good.>>12240728Same.
