The Absolute WORST Parts Of Early 3D Gaming

Video Description

For a significant chunk of the history of video games, it was a major overarching goal to eventually move from 2D to 3D. But it wasn't until the early to mid-90s that 3D games started to become the norm. Graphics and technology had advanced to the point where even the lowest of low rent developers could theoretically implement polygonal graphics. This of course led to the mid-90s wild west that I'm so fond of. Where tons of developers of varying skill levels were individually attempting to test the waters to see what worked and what didn't work as far as 3D gaming was concerned. They were the pioneers, the ground breakers. And while the cream of the crop has risen to the top in the grandest of time, there were dozens if not hundreds of examples of attempts at 3D games that completely fell flat due to a combination of inexperience with the added perspective, and the general jankiness that came with the technology limitations as well as the new technology. And while it may not be the worst, one of the more notorious examples of that transition from 2D to 3D would be Prince of Persia 3D, and that's the subject of today's video.
