RE4 looked amazing in 2005, to the point that I and my school-friends didn't see what the fuss was when the 360 launched later that year. Even when I first played the game in 2009 it blew my mind how good it looked. But going back today the textures are absolutely terrible, through the models and lighting still hold up. Same with God of War. Other than the large bosses it looks bad, but it also made the 360 look unnecessary at the time.
Sonic Adventure. It was so far ahead of everything else graphically at the time. But the models aged very quickly once the PS2 launched.
FF7. The FMV's and pre-rendered backgrounds stopped hiding how terrible the polygonal models were very quickly.
Star Fox. A milestone in 3d graphics on a console, but it aged like crap.
Not counting games like Metroid Prime, Rogue Leader, Gears of War, or Crysis which still hold up well.
