description:
A look back at the distinctive visual technique of pre rendered backgrounds, a lost artform thank to modern 3d and a staple of 90s games that defined an era of classic games to overcome early limitations of 3D console gaming hardware. Often attributed to the PS1 graphics, Pre-Rendering techniques actually began during the 16-bit console generation using Silicon Graphics workstations, and games existed on the Sega Saturn and Nintendo 64 that used this approach.
