Did anyone actually think that? I was around playing games at the time. Graphics can be mind blowing and you can still dream of how they could be better.
It’s a weird thing, in my experience. Like, I remember a lot of old games having some just absolutely stunning CGI, especially cutscenes. But looking back, compared to what’s standard these days, they look like total shit. How could I have ever thought Spirits Within looked real compared to even the current games? And the movie was pre-rendered over many many hours, while the games are doing it all real-time.
I remember sitting on the spirits within website looking at the renders of the characters and talking with my friend about how we couldn’t tell it was cgi.

I remember playing Donkey Kong Country as a kid and thinking it looked more real than real life.

It is interesting how that changes over time.
