If we are going to divide it up that way though, then wouldn't the original Xbox would be closer to PS3/360 than to the PS2 thanks to its pixel shaders?

Honestly, I never saw that trailer until many years later. Didn't watch much TV as a kid and didn't get the internet at home til 2006.

I think the first PS2 game I saw was Gran Turismo 3, but by then I already owned an Xbox and had seen stuff like Rogue Squadron II and Starfox Adventures for Gamecube.

Then it's very difficult to explain the jump we saw to you. I had a Xbox as well and it never blew me the way mgs 2 and gt3 did. The thing about the ps2 is the first time games start looking like cgi for that time so it's difficult to explain if you weren't online or didn't have a dreamcast and ps2 to compare at that time, I had both.

That's fair; I was talking more in terms of the graphics technology but such leaps are of course subjective in how we see them, so if that's your experience I didn't mean to imply it's wrong.
