as compared to other video games of their year.
I can’t really think of any recent games. Except maybe Halo Reach and it’s TERRIBLE texture quality at any distance greater than 5 meters (this may just be a problem in splitscreen).
Any other ideas?
HL1 looked pretty bad
Not for it’s time though. For it’s time it’s graphics were revolutionary, just like HL2 was in 2005.
Minecraft looks blocky and pixelated.
I was going to say Deus Ex, but I really should have said that instead…
Also, Call of Cthulu and Stalker weren’t top notch when they came out.
of course, but i thought he meant games that people still play these days, and look bad. and i believe there is a lot of people(including me) still playing it 
:facepalm:
ok, lets choose 15 year old games and measure it by today’s standards. half life was gorgeous when it came out.
Earth Defence Force 2017 
Even the 360 rerelease was shocking
Black Mesa. It looks terrible.
Crysis looks terrible.
sorry for misunderstanding then :meh:
Call of Duty: Black Ops looks pretty damn bad, even compared to Modern Warfare 2, and especially compared to every other modern FPS.
Nonsense. It’s not real, so it does not look like anything.
I kinda think Deus Ex actually had a pretty good, workable facial system. Many characters had unique faces, and it used texture changes to speak but still looked good.
Anyway, most 3D-based games for the DS have pretty horrible graphics.
Deus Ex wasn’t that bad for the time. Facial animations weren’t seen until later I believe.
Prince of Persia, the one with the emo prince and the masochistic slags. I hated that facial animation system.
Halo 2 always gave me a headache when I played it.
yeah, prince of persia 2 and 3 were really bad, I don’t get it how they managed to get them look worse than the first one
PoP 2 and 3 were pretty rushed. But at least the second made the Prince into the anti-pussy. He was real kickass.
But yeah, the bugs and terrible graphics and shoddy animation were, well, bad.
That’s funny, I always thought they tried too hard and he ended up just being a douchebag.
Main reason he was a pussy in the 2nd one was because the whole premise of the game was just to prevent him from dying. Heck, he got plenty of his own soldiers killed just to prevent his own death.
“You were supposed to die. Now, the dahaka will pursue you to correct that mistake. The only way to avoid death would be causing catastrophic changes to the flow of time-”
“How do I get started?”
“…May god have mercy on us.”
