Rare PS2 Graphics demo (1999)

The first major public demo of the what PS2 would be capable of. Released in 1999, this demo movie was state-of-the-art. However, if you look closely, you can see the then low polygon count on the brief GT demo. The next shot is the girl from what would become Ridge Racer V. Next is Square's "The Bouncer", and then a real time demo of a beautiful scene from FFVIII.

@dreamcastdc I still have one that works Japanese and english PS2s One is in blue. i have Primal Image which was a PS2 Game To Demonstrate Graphics. of course it was girls but come on it was worth it. there is a cute boy in it too btw. Dreamcast Had Slower Loading Times Than PS2. PS2 was Sharper And More HD Than Dreamcast. They Both Had Stereo. Dreamcast was analog Dolby Surround 2.0 while PS2 was 5.1. PS2 And Dreamcast controls were Vice Versa. Best Game for PS2: Tekken Series.

Had a lot of good memories with the PS2 and the Dreamcast, but I don't care about the graphics at all, but just to make a random point, the DC did infact have double the video capacity over the PS2. The reasons why the games didn't look as good is because the system didn't have enough time in to show it's full power.

@KingKKevinKev Shadow of the colossus, God of war 1,2,Black, Grand turismo, their are more games that pushed it Rachet and clank/Jak and daxter games did as well.

@KingKKevinKev More than you think actually.

Haunting Ground and numerous Final Fantasy and Resident Evil games did a great job.

Cool. Sad that only a hand full of games used the "Emotion Engine" to the max. MGS2 and of course Snake Eater are two of them. MGS 3 is in my opinion the best PS2 game.
