Not sure about now days, but on the PS and N64 it was easier to tell I believe. Back then that is all anyone talked about it seems with the N64. Good framerate....good game. T.B.O that was usually the case. Other than Perfect Dark.

There were actually very few games that ran at 60fps on the N64... the most notable being F-Zero X, but of course the graphics were heavily cut back to make the game run so smoothly all the time.  And yeah PD had a chuggy frame rate especially during 4 player multiplayer, but it made up for it with its amazing visuals especially in the single player campaign with the "hi res" graphics due to the expansion pack lol.

@OP... one of the easiest ways to tell the difference between 30 and 60fps this gen is to play Forza 4 (or 3 or 2 also i believe) and notice how the framerate changes when you finish a race.  During a race it runs at a silky smooth 60 fps, but after the race during the replay cam it switches to a more cinematic-looking 30 fps.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
