At the time of its release, I thought we had hit the utter most realistic thing with the original Far Cry, and nothing could surpass it.
It looks so incredibly out-of-date nowadays, it's a wonder I even believed that back then. But then again, it did become a technical wonder for quite a while.
There's also Final Fantasy 8 (though I was much much more impressionable back when I first played it, but it gave the impression of being in a living, organic school with its more humanoid characters in contrast to FFVII), and Resident Evil 4, with its enemies doing all kind of crazy tactics to get the best out of you, plus its nice graphics that lowkey hold still, even if dated.
