FF 7 Moment I recall that was different.

Boosted resolution in an emulator looks like crap. Something about the PSX renderer makes polygons look wavy and distorted, especially at higher resolutions.

The PC version also allows for modification, such as the NPC Reconstruction Patch. Imagine high quality, non-SD models everywhere.

I'm assuming you're speaking from hands on experience here?

Last time I fired up my copy of ePSXe, the games I played (Front Mission 3, Grandia, Xenogears, Rival Schools, etc.) had no such distortion on the polygon models. In fact, the games looked absolutely fantastic with the higher resolution and smoothed/cleaned up textures.

But then again, I guess it's all about which video pack you get.
