the first-gen 3D consoles were an *amazing* jump. you went from StarFox, where you could count the number of polygons, to something like Wipeout (first-generation PS1)? stunningly different.

when new games came out, the majority of the reviews were solely about the graphics! everyone was slack-jawed for years, and then just when you thought you hit a standard, something like Tekken 3 would come out and blow you away again.

PS1/Saturn/N64 have definitely aged the worst because of frame rate (30 FPS used to be acceptable, and even into the 20s was standard) and high resolution advances. but that era was a graphical marvel for the time.
