20 Years of 3DMark Demo (Everything From 1999 to 2019)

[@Armuotas]

After all these years I still think that the year 2000 had the best soundtrack of them all!

[@vahdoom]

I have the song on my ipod :)

[@Armuotas]

@@vahdoom Same here, phone, in my case. Still gets me through the evening commute from time to time.

[@juanpablo8514]

Not soundtrack only, demo still the best too!

[@sxgamingz7514]

i agree

[@nayil100]

They made that with their heart and soul. Now, it's just so boring and I can't wait for the benchmarks to be done with.

[@Valhalla.Studio]

3DMark2000 music hits hard, visually was awesome for its time as well, watching it as a kid on the first computer I build was very impressive, and very nostalgic seeing it again here!

[@1AjA1]

Thanks for this! Brings back memories of late 90's, early 2000's. Awesome!

[@nelsoncabrera6464]

3DMark2000... the medieval town scene is pure nostalgia.

[@vahdoom]

Seeing that landscape at 12:46 when I was a kid blew my mind. Just noticed the bullet time in the Max payne demo in 2001 didnt render properly lol.

[@SoFGR]

same

[@mlodzin90]

Yeah, simillar experience ;)

[@Garufurendo01]

And i showed that to my patents they were shocked too.

[@tabascocrimson7865]

Lobby scene animations timing is COMPLETELY F**********D

[@8skellerns]

Amazing how 3D Mark has progressed over the years technically, but some of the early ones were still the best.

[@marcohernandez2519]

99 Max got ALL the Unreal Tournament 99 vibes, such nostalgia T_T

[@darchev]

С версии 2000 прям поностальгировал )) особенно финальный саундтрек )

[@BronyMashinist]

11я путешествие на МИРах уж слишком эти подводные аппараты извеснтые)

[@BASSstarlet]

24:20 "Medal of Honr" :P

[@BASSstarlet]

1:44 AMIGA demos vibes!

[@CaptPatrick01]

The early ones are giving me strong Demo Scene vibes. I wonder if they've been involved in it, and have some of their works uploaded onto here.

[@farazfp]

They were indeed! Remedy was formed by members of Future Crew, which you may recall as being responsible for the ground-breaking demo, Second Reality. (kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6iUaJZtZdp9m9U)

[@TheRealSmooch]

Some were also involved in AAA titles. Kim Salo was lead programer of the early 3dmark versions and games like Max Payne 1+2.

[@MrBoombast64]

So nostalgic!

[@johnnyw1464]

3dmark 2001....those damn trees.

[@user-jr7qy2hy3j]

14:23 something is different

[@ufodeath]

13:38 amazing reflections for the time

[@EsOne4200]

2001 "disc 2" scene is messed up. Definitely not playing like it should with your modern hardware.

[@prozac1127]

10x graphics every 2 years. Consoles killed it later.

[@hakureicirno6059]

5:48 shrinked downed version of this is used in SPMark, the "3DMark" for cellphones running Symbian 60.

[@registered4maturecontent751]

System Shock 2 Soundtrack? I like it!

[@orion33]

Nostalgia... Thank you.

[@thunderboy8987]

Nice, thank you for this compilation 😇

[@MrWazzin]

Remember all the GPUs I used to run these tests...

[@user-jr7qy2hy3j]

I like XL-R8R and Final Reality.

[@lastawake2822]

The 2000 version is so full of Final Reality vibes. BTW, 2000, 2001 and 2003 were most impressive for me and I mean watching these today. The newer versions are much more complex, of course, but I just can't say "breathtaking".

[@cyna76]

omg! great work dude

[@bez_znaczenia]

Music name that starts from 00:00-00:25?

[@NemesisXKL2]

35:00 i remember the frame drops there back in the days.

[@fernandofgg]

Amazing

[@bbsonjohn]

When I was small, I saw an epic 3D footage -> thought it was an upcoming game's trailer -> turned out to be 3DMark benchmark -> sadness

[@Okazu84]

@27:22 that massive THREE FPS I got when that breaching blasted away my computer every time, no matter the amount of borderline OC I was applying. And no pun intended. Or a cheap one.

[@cad85]

2000 was the best!

[@eugenb9017]

99 and 2000 were incredible, seeing what a Voodoo3 or TNT2 are really capable to do... amazing back then. 2001 was ok, I had a GF3 Ti200 128 MB, Nature demo was nice, but... not the amazing feeling that 99 and 2000 had. And from there it went downhill, 2003 and 2005 were actually quite ugly, a lot of shinny bump mapping.

[@kIviVwB]

@Spotify, when?

[@chickenbuu2536]

XL-R8R ??

[@wolfgangkrebl3056]

Xlr8 is missing

[@BASSstarlet]

FFS there is no sound in space!!

[@drego5046]

51:58 0.25

[@Romess1]

But what were your scores?

[@raymondchan3587]

I tried all of them from 2000

[@jc_dogen]

nice, but should've included final reality

[@BASSstarlet]

The fight at the end, is so fake.

[@nexushexus4365]

You list GTA2 like it was important title, which it wasn't.

[@IsmailofeRegime]

Yeah, it was considered a fun game, but not much different from its predecessor. GTA III is when the series really started taking off and massively influencing the gaming landscape.

[@gerald8573]

Nice! Port Royal doesn't look impressive. It's just a fuckton of ray tracing.

[@kamikazemelon787]

lol that GOOFY ASS matrix demo holy crap, the animation is god-awful

[@BASSstarlet]

True.

[@gameexe6337]

other than the nature ones, all these demos looked so goofy and nowhere as good as some of the most notable games of that time

[@bbsonjohn]

I disagree. If you meant the matrix lobby one, yes. The rest demos are top notch back in the days in their respective eras.
