I recently posted about the Gamecube controller and there was some talk about the console itself. This video came out shortly afterwards and goes over a lot of what was discussed in that thread.
Gotta love this statement from a Nintendo of America person fretting about the Cube's colour before release:
Show
I guess they were right since they were talking about American gamers in the year 2001
In the 2000s, real was brown. Literal brown filters on every FPS. Black grey brown and blood red were the only colors allowed
That really began in earnest during the following generation
Yeah for sure, late 2000s. Xbox 360 games were the biggest offenders
I will defend the honour of the Gears of War franchise 😤
Don't forget those glorious yellow/ sepia filters.
The yellow filters sucked, but they were better than the blue filters that came after. Battlefield 3 looks terrible going back. At least the older COD games and battlefield bad company hold up better, with their yellow filters.
