I'm not kidding, and I'm talking about the SNES version, not the N64 version. The game knew exactly how much processing power it had, and all the aesthetics were based around it. Compare it to Tekken, where we had "realistic" "human" characters, and now it looks like ass.

I agree StarFox on the SNES has aged very well both gameplay and graphically wise.

lots of Dreamcast games still look good like soul calibur and sonic. Whats horrifying is saturn and psone games especially the stuff going for realism. Or jaguar wow those 3D games hell all of them really had poor graphics. Mario 64 still looks alright I agree

I'm playing through MGS 1 right now and actually think that it really does show its age, I mean the gameplay is still fine but when I watch those cutscenes I'm just like wow those people don't even have faces. I think there are alot of N64 games from that era that hold up a whole lot better, Jet Force Gemini, Blast Corps, Turok 2, and Banjo Kazooie all look pretty good to me for their age.

I can't believe no ones mentioned Okami, Dark Cloud 2, or Viewtiful Joe.

Third, StarFox is timeless. Tempest 2000 is too....
