Old games that still look good today

Turok 2 with the expansion pack still holds up extremely well for a N64 game.
Wow those are some sharp textures for an N64.
I believe hes using an unofficial highres Texture-Pack with an emulator.
Yeah, true, sorry.
Turok 2 runs like crap in hi-res mode. A single enemy on the screen shooting at you can cause the framerate to die, and the worst thing is that dropped frames cause lags in the control, making it impossible to aim and dodge. It runs acceptably in low-res and is still one of the better-looking N64 games.
Rogue Squadron for N64. I still play it to this day, if only because of the missions (and the pacing, something which was lost in Rogue Leader and Rebel Strike). Also, Beetle Adventure Racing.
For something older than 64/32-bit, Magician Lord for Neo Geo.

Monkey Island 3 still looks good to me. Except the non-AA fonts and low quality cutscenes...
Most cartoon (2D) based games will still look good over time.

Yea I popped in The Dig a few days ago and me and my friend were ooo'ing and aaaa'ing at the cartoon visuals. The animation was so fluid.

Whenever I run it in High Res Letterboxed mode the framerate is really smooth... For a N64 game anyways.
Oh, and it's not using an "unofficial high res texture pack".
Heh, I think you're just seeing it through fan-love goggles 'Turok'. Even the developers acknowledged the framerate problems and as a result the 3rd game was toned down.

Downloaded it. It's funny you forget sometimes how unforgiving these old games were in terms of game saves.
for having to go back and play an entire area complete with cutscenes after doing ONCE.ken_masters

Forsaken from N64. Nice particle effects and lighting, I like the rotations and the gameplay with the analog stick. I would have liked a second part, using the 4mb expansion. All Iguana games was great in graphic terms. Probe games too.
