I'm gonna go with gens 2 to 3, with 4 to 5 a close second. The 3rd gen was when everything started to click. Huge advancements in technology, game design, and audio quality. Just compare the average NES game to the average Atari 2600 game. The differences are like night and day.

Of course, the leap to 3d was also huge. The 5th gen was the beginning of modern gaming for me. It introduced most of the genres we all know and love today.
