You can't fool me. This is obviously just the shitastic PS3 port.
384x216 upscaled to 1080p. I think some PS1 games were even lower than that but it's definitely in the ballpark of the PS1 output.
Talion face remind me of solid snake in MGS1.
Actually looks like a very low rez version of dishonoured
I was just joking. Those shots are glorious.
This thread should be popular again.
Shadow of Mordor in all it's PS1 res glory.
Wow that's unbearable.
What are your system specs?
And how do you run games at 384x216? First time I heard that. Usually, game's resolution can't get this low...

I was about to say "man, I don't see anything wrong with any of these." And then I saw Shadows of Mordor. I'm not a graphic snob, but wowzers that does not look good.
Call it an indie game and it would be getting tons of accolades.

Damn, forgot about this thread. I'll make low settings 720p Ryse shots, maybe with some 70-80% upscaling in future, should be fun
I thought it was supposed to be a low settings thread, not a "make it look as shitty as possible" thread

This. And I thought you weren't supposed to show games that are under 6 months old.

Exactly. lol

And they'd be deserved, since they'd probably achieve it with a tiny, minuscule budget

Oh, I thread I can contribute to!
This is the best my current pc can do. Almost playable at 20ish fps.
That's how I finished hl2 10 years ago, was still the BGE in those conditions.
Thats the point, I dont think it will look bad with 70-80% upscaling though, but i will make native too for sure.
I have a i5 3470, 8Gb of ram and a 970.
The game has a resolution slider and 384x216 is the 20% of 1080p. Doesn't go lower than that sadly.

I played Ryse on my laptop, it has a cool cell shading look on low settings I was surprised

Why? This is an insult to HL2.
I have a tablet that runs the game much better than this.

It proves that you need to stop hating on consoles.
Resolution slider is a glorious feature in PC games.
I'd do this in BF4 if I could be bothered installing it again.
You're giving me nostalgia for a game released three months ago. That looks amazing and horrible at the same time.

All settings lowest. Internally rendering at 720p, scaling up to 1080p.

For real. I rememeber my GT220 playing Half Life 2 and Episodes at 1080p and maxed out, 60fps too three years ago.
The thing also played Crysis 1 at 720p everything minimum, maybe something on medium. It took it like a champ.

I think I'll jump into Serious Sam 2nd Encounter later and see what horrors I can come up with.

Alright I got one of Second Encounter
Croteam are the best.

The ultra low res shots show to me that the simpler graphics of old games that were actually made for those resolutions look miles better then these modern games scaled down. All the detail becomes a muddy mess in a way basic low textured polygons don't quite as much.
On the other hand the pics from games on low settings but at a more modern resolution tell me that a lot of the time as long as I'm able to run at a semi decent res the rest of the settings are no big deal breaker baring those games that scale back to ridiculous amounts.

this entire thread is how i run games lmao
Another factor in this thread is that a lot of people are taking shots at non-native res, which IMO is obfuscating what a game should really look like at those settings. I dropped my game res from 1080 to 720 for my shots. Running the game after this, upscaled to 1080, looks terrible. Interestingly, Arma 2 still spat out a 1280x720 screenshot, but Arma 3 produced an upscaled 1920x1080 shot, resulting in an effect like this one. I ended up having to run Arma 3 windowed to get two equivalent shots.
I can handle low settings, but the fuzz effect of non-native res kills me!

You should seriously post this in that " Make a modern game a PSX game thread", I'm trying to find it. Is it still around?
