The most overused game graphic you never noticed | Texture Archaeology

The exact same brick texture is in dozens of Nintendo 64 and PlayStation games. From Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie, and Final Fantasy 7, to Turok, Conker, and Mortal Kombat 3.

"cobble_stone" is the most overused game graphic you never noticed. Why were competing studios sharing the same graphics? 'Texture Archaeology' gives us the answer.

The cartoonish, magical imagery from your childhood is a lot more realistic than you once thought.
