I didn't even have to search to find out, I knew it had to be Ocarina of Time. It was a game that just felt so vastly larger than everything that had come before and nothing since has had that big of a leap over its predecessors.
Of course, when you think about it, it probably took about as long to walk from one side of Hyrule in Link to the Past as it did to walk across Hyrule field, but the effect of seeing Death Mountain and Hyrule castle in the distance really made the world seem so much larger.
