The backgrounds were really brown and gross looking, so they looked like shit to me. And the characters looked like ass too, technically speaking. Nothing about the game wowed me in terms of presentation, visuals, or how it played. You are being nostalgic about Vagrant Story and stuff!

In all fairness, Chrono Cross looked a lot better than Vagrant Story.

I can see why someone would find CC to be visually far more appealing.. But just like FF games it has prerendered backgrounds. The 3D engine in Vagrant Story is probably TECHNICALLY the most impressive thing Square did on PSX.

Sony handing Twisted Metal and Jet Moto to 989 Studios.

SCEA not publishing and marketing SCEE's Dropship and Wipeout Fusion in the US. >X{

Sony handing Twisted Metal and Jet Moto to 989 Studios.

Crash Bandicoot to VU was a far more grave choice, as when TM was brought back to the originators...it still sucked.

Naughty Dog hasn't returned to Crash, so we'll never know if it was really that bad a choice.

Sorry but Ultima 8 did it first.

Ultima 8 was not as bad as Ultima 9, not even close.. but 10x worse than Ultima 7.

sorry Scarlet... you can say Vagrant Story sucks from a gameplay standpoint because after all the game is not for everyone... but saying Vagrant Story looked like smeared shit, what the fuck are you smoking? pass that shit.

How about every Fallout that came after 2?

Fallout, without question upon creating F:BOS for PS2/Xbox and Interplay management for simultaneously cancelling the long awaited Fallout 3.

I'd say Vagrant Story had the best art direction coming from Square on the PS.

Characters like Ashley Riot, Callo Merlose, and Sydney looked phenomenal in art, and the game translated over very well.

I know the gameplay isn't for everyone, but the graphics are easily some of the best on PS.
