konami and their fucked up...
@Sexy Zombie Roo I don't know how you play games without textures
It freaks the fuck out of me
Idk my graphic standards are kinda low
I don't care a lot about graphics, especially on old stuff
I think MGS2 is a spectacular looking game
but on a new console, that shit is fugly
MGS2 is nothing special compared to MGS3
True
dude, MGS2 was magnificient for its time
shadows, reflexions
It was good for an early PS2 game
The thing is I think most PS2 games hold up today graphically
a lot of graphical details
What the fuck
wtf
Art
no but seriously, even for late games on PS2, MGS2 is still freaking beautiful, especially the lightning, etc
real time reflexions, directional shadows, etc
it was really well done for its time
I think it was able to do that since the areas were tiny
Those reflections are actually that old method of having another model of the character on the other side, while the floor texture is just a little transparent.
(not that it makes it any less spectacular)
RUINED IT
HOW DARE YOU
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I was messing with it the other week ago, making the floor / walls more transparent to make them shiny. xD
off course they had to use cheap methods @Sexy Zombie Roo
the PS2 had cheap hardware lol
still, the final product looks amazing for its time
doing such thing without using cheap tricks would require you to use raytracing
and you can forget about any realtime or 60 FPS, even with current highend hardware if you use that, even for low poly games like MGS2
it's like that old duke nukem reflection trick
the mirror is an invisible wall and behind it is a copy of the room and a duplicate of the player
STOP RUINNING THINGS
