    Default Saturn/PSX games running at 60fps

    this is a bit of an offshoot of the flat shading thread, but a couple of weeks ago, i tried out the bleemcast beta running ridge racer which was rather impressive to see, but then i went back to the ridge racer 4 turbo disc, and tried out ridge racer turbo, and it was nearly as good running at a solid 60fps (the bleemcast still had the higher resolution though). The Klonoa demo also ran at a high frame rate (for playstation standards), and games like VF2 on the Saturn had the higher rate.

    obviously most 3D games on the PSX and Saturn ran at 30fps or slower as speed was normally sacrificed for higher poly counts and more textures. are there any other clear cut examples of what runs faster than the average 30fps on these systems (include the N64 too, if there are any examples there... i cant think of any)

    Pretty sure F-Zero X on N64 is 60fps.

    Internal Section on PSX runs at 60. I think the Tobal games may as well.

    Tekken 3
    Tobal 2

    I think Toshinden 3 had the option to run in 60 FPS too.

    didn't VF 2, Last Bronx and PowerSlave run at 60 FPS on Saturn?

    For sure, "Savaki" does. Game itself is a bit of a turd however.

    Yes, and that game completely ROCKS. It's a shame it didn't hit the US.

    Anyway, pretty much any 2D game was 60 fps, except for some things that mixed in 3D stuff (like the early DDRs).

    Street Racer was pretty impressive in that it was 3D and 60 fps, and possibly hi-res interlaced, though I can't remember for sure on that one. Plus it had 8 player (!!!) split screen with 2 multitaps. I have no idea how the frame rate held up in that mode, though. Heh.

    I know they were advertised as, I'm not sure if they did.

    The racing game on PSX that was 60 fps (from my memory) was Motorhead.

    Motorhead ran at 60fps.

    Toshinden 3 allowed a mode to kick it into 60fps by replacing the textures with flat shades.

    I think Tobal 1 was 60fps...

    I believe all three Tekken games on PSX ran at 60fps, as well as the "special edition" of the original Ridge Racer that came with Ridge Racer Type 4.
