I look at each game separately. Art style is more important to me than technical graphic rendering. In my opinion one of the best looking games of all time is Panzer Dragoon Saga for the Sega Saturn. It's art style is so good it doesn't matter to me what the limits of the engine or system are. Halo games always look good because they have such fantastic art direction and are so open and unscripted. It's amazing how good Halo games always look when you consider all the difficult things the engine is doing. The there's 2D games. Rayman Origins looks great and its not doing anything technical at all.
Graphics are important, but after performance, I think, art style is the most important part of the graphics.
