This elephant from Metal Slug 3 that only appears in one level and for 2 minutes only:

Soooooo good.

Damn, that's amazing. I really miss this kind of pixel art.

Bayonetta 2
I'm also fond of Twilight Princess' jank

I've always found it odd because of how her ass moves like a separate entity of its own. Her upper body is relatively stiff while her lower body moves at a different pace.

Thought the same as well when I saw it.
Maybe it will be tweaked before release.

I think the best part of this is that, between steps, both his feet are in the air. Makes it look powerful.

Well you kinda have to have both feet in the air to run

Artists working for large development houses back in the day had years of well-financed professional projects on which they evolved and honed their form, and were working alongside sizable teams of people doing the same.

But yeah, how does their work still look so far beyond hobbyist projects with one or two novice sprite artists working in their free time with next to no pay? It's a mystery.

Fucking thank you.

The constant ripping on modern pixel art gets real fucking tiring.

The best for me is mgsV.

Final Fantasy VIII has a great running animation.

 

[icecold1983]

Unity has to be up there. Syndicate is just as good as unity during the loading screen but when you get into the actual game it just falls apart

Notice how her butt cheeks are individually animated and how you literally can see the fat bounce up and down as she runs. You don't get this level of detail with motion capture, you have to do it manually, which was the case with P.N.03.

Pac man in diapers xD

I cant find a gif for it, but Lara Croft in the trilogy before the reboot had some serious momentum going on. I also loved how she smacked leaves and obstacles out of the way as she sprinted. Something about hers and Snakes in MGSV just click with me.

Cool thread from 2016 but lets start a new one if discussion is warranted.
