Is that from San Andreas? I’m sure it was around earlier than that.

I think PoP: Sands of Time has that kind of camera control, and apparently that was 2003.

I always assumed it was even older than that. If it wasn’t GTA or PoP, who did pioneer that camera control style?

I’d say it’s just about the only (arguable) flaw in the Mario 64 controls, everything else is absolutely spot on.
