Just more clearer, wouldn’t say “incredible” or “astounding” differences

gamesR4fun1953d ago

have you ever looked at picture in low res lets say 640 x 480 blown up?

l33t_haxx0r1953d ago

People mock trump over his fake news but he is fucking right lol

Nitrowolf21953d ago (Edited 1953d ago )

I take that back
The actually source of the images shows them at different sizes, whereas the article has them as the same size. Loses the effect when they do that

That does look better

I mean it’s still cleaner but the image resolution is upped in the process so it appears not to lose quality or stretch things out

Furesis1953d ago

cool i suppose
seems to work best for pre rendered backgrounds etc.
character models look horrible. even the metroid background looks bad just look at the trees. actually all of them looks more cartoonish somehow?
Good thing is it can only get better. this could be interesting

sinspirit1953d ago

Imagine using this technology to build entirely new games.

mastershredder1953d ago

Articles like this make me hate gamers even though I love to game.

Shinox1953d ago (Edited 1953d ago )

As much as i hate Resetera / Neogaf so much ..
Let me guess .. you are one of those idiots who just doesn't want to see anything from the past because it "ruins" your HUYPE for your modern shit .. i despise the likes of you that fill the gaming community and i'm sick and tired of how effective you idiots opinion are toward companies because you represent the majority of those corporate slave casuals .

Casepb1953d ago

What? You don't "hate" gamers, you just think you're better than them.

Casepb1953d ago

Oh wow that's cool as shit. It looks just how I remembered those games instead of pixelated to hell and back.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

ravens5220d ago

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5220d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212120d ago (Edited 20d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5219d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5219d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani20d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum20d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman20d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim20d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
