Is there a list anywhere of the resolutions PS1 games natively output? According to Wikipedia games on it ran on "resolutions from 256×224 to 640×480", with most games I believe running at 320x240 (240p), a few ran in the "High Resolution Mode" (512×240 for Crash Bandicoot, 512x512 for Wipeout afaik), and others that had variable resolutions whether in-game or in menus. PSP scales all PS1 games to fit within the limits of its 480x272 screen, so I was wondering which games are actually being down sampled to fit on it.
The only ingame 640x480x16bit game is Internal Section from Squaresoft, a really fun barrel-shooter with cd-music-track-swaping and lots of goodies, it really looks amazing Heres a schematics with most (not all) of PS1 graphic modes I belive theres no other game that manage 640x480 ingame. There are only stactic screens ingame like the "showroom" of Gran Turismo with car model spinning that is 640x480 but ingame ... no i think You can check every game native resolution using pSX emulator and using the debug screen, its really helpfull (the button above TAB)
Internal Section! Man, that one was fucking fantastic. It was quite a fun game. I do recall one of the modes on Wipeout3, without the textures, ran at a stupid amount of frames per second. Not quite sure if it was sixty. 60FPS at 640x480 would be amazing for the old PlayStation. This makes me curious.
Wipeout 3 is 512x240 Anyway, it looks amazing Here are some vdumps The european extended edition, Wip3out SE, is my favourite futuristic racing game of all times
Did the first Gran Turismo title not also have a 60fps hi-res mode around one of the special stage night circuits?
Fuck yes. I played the hell out of Wipeount 3 SE. It looked fantastic, and it was a blast to play, and many many years later, nobody has ever made such an awesome futuristic racer.
For some reason I was thinking that GT2 had a special replay mode that used a high quality graphics mode, but it's been years since I played it.
the hi-fi mode is 60fps only, not high resolution the thing that a lot people don't know is that with a cheat device you can play all the tracks in hi-fi mode, albeit on the more demanding tracks, there is tearing and slowdown besides the resolution mentioned already the psx is capable of 364x240, 364x480(used by tekken 3) too
what about the "change disc" screens in final fantasy VII?? I remember them having insanely high resolution
