In a time of 4K re-releases and crispy emulator upscaling, the idea of playing early 3D titles in anything but eye-popping HD might seem puzzling. Why deal with the fuzz and jagginess of internal resolutions as low as 240p? Surely, more visibility and clarity is always a good thing for these old games, right?
Well, buckle up and warm up the CRT, because it’s time you learnt about the magic smoke and mirrors of low-fidelity, the ugly warts that await you in the HD realm, and why so many retro games still look their best at their original resolution.
