ok im not talking about photorealistic quality graphics like in jurassic park and star wars. final fantasy wasnt photorealistic, it had a computer graphics feel and artsy type of art style to it, unlike the photorealistic stuff like in the matrix. movies back in the early 50's and 30's used stop animation and clay figures for movies like king kong and godzilla...and thats what final fantasy can be compared to, but do you think it can be the new stop animation and clay movies for the new millenium as well as games?Not really. However it must be stressed that much of the illusion is movement and working out the curvature of the geometry through shaders or having a higher vertex through-put. The other problem is that movie graphics have become alot better too. CGI from the early to mid-nineties looks pretty piss-poor versus what we have today accept in the best instances like Jurassic Park, Independence day or the Special Editions of the original Star Wars trilogy. They had to deal with even higher rendering times to get their quality.
