Yeah I replayed Conker Live and Reloaded on the Xbox just this month and it looks insanely good for a 6th gen game.

What would you say were the most graphically advanced games on the Gamecube?

Definitely the Star Wars Rogue Squadron games, that texture work and draw distance was damn impressive.

Resident Evil 4, Twilight Princess and the Metroid Prime games had some fantastic levels of detail and texture work.
Metroid Prime definitely had very intricate levels of geometry which made the worlds feel more alive.

I hope they all get remastered/remade for the Switch at some point, I think they have aged really well for 6th generation titles.

Yeah I remember being floored by Rogue Squadron II and III back in the day with their high-poly ships, bumpmapping, self-shadowing, tons of light sources, bloom, explosions and debris, volumetric fog, etc.

Have you played/seen Starfox Adventures? It seems to share a lot in common with Conker on Xbox, being made by the same team a few years earlier. had some really great fur shaders and water effects at 60fps.
