I remember playing Twisted Metal on the PS1 and thinking that those graphics would just never be beat. They were so realistic!
My version is seeing the first cutscene in Resident Evil 2 and somehow convincing myself it looked indistinguishable from live action. I also remember being very impressed with Aladdin on the Sega Genesis (I had only ever seen NES games until that point)
Aladdin (and also Lion King) on Genesis / SNES had some ultra-smooth animation compared to anything we'd seen before!
I was really blown away by Goldeneye on the N64, too. The fact that they got blood on them in the spot you shot them and would grab the wounded spot as they collapsed was immensely impressive at the time.
