Thinking back, I think most PS2 games could be replicated in a downscaled degree on the PS1. All we had during the PS2 era was more characters on screen and sharper graphics and better AI. Did we get any sort of generational advancement last gen?


Rhetorical question, there.

Soul Calibur, Resident Evil 4 and Devil May Cry are the games that come to my mind right now.

Soul Calibur was just a boosted up Soul Blade.  Resident Evil 4 was just Dino Crisis with better graphics.  Devil May Cry was just a stylish action game with fast gameplay mechanincs.  They could have changed up Soul Reaver and made that game. 

The scope of Resident Evil 4 doesn't make it possible on other systems. Splinter Cell is another one because of the lighting mechanics (just look at the poor mans DS version of Chaos Theory)...

 

GTA San Andreas wasn't possible too. 

The jump from PS1 to PS2 let much more room for improvement than PS2 to PS3, I think.
