The fifth generation. It was a gen of discovery as devs tried to get hold of designing games that took advantage of three dimensions. Nearly every game was an exciting and original experiment in gameplay mechanics not to mention visuals. Playing through that gen was incredible.

Having said that, fourth gen games have aged very well where the mechanics were optimised perfectly for 2D. Fifth gen was experimental, so aged well they have not.
