IMO the system wars were more fun back then. The difference in graphics and sound was much more pronounced than it is today.

Agreed.

This thread also reminded me of the C64, Spectrum and CPC system wars back in the 8-bit home computer era. That was fun.

 

Initially the differences between Amiga and Atari ST games weren't that great:

New Zealand Story (1989 Amiga version, using the Atari ST's limited pallette and 16 color selection)

IK+ (Atari ST)

IK+ (Amiga)

Xenon (1988 Atari ST, identical to the Amiga version, Xenon 2 later in 1989 introduced much superior audio on the Amiga)

Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."
