Last time you were impressed by graphics?

Journey.

And they weren't even all that technically impressive. But what thatgamecompany did with the game overall, and the way they used camera angles and they used everything really to give a player a complete package makes the graphics of the game absolutely and completely mind blowing.

This is a bit of an odd choice, because the graphics were TERRIBLE, but LA Noire. The people looked bad, the cars looked bad, the environments looked bad but HOLY CRAP the facial animations. They were so incredibly good.

Crysis, and the Witcher II. Both are gorgeous - and TW2 also had a wonderful concept and art design.

The first time was Donkey Kong country
after that it was Shenmue.
The i-net spoiled most of the fun in this console generation and gaming in general. Seeing awesome graphis/ art designs on your home tv for the first time enlightens the magic from time to time (Uncharted 2 / CoD4 / Killzone 2-3/ Flower / BF3 / God of war / Gears o W 1-2 / RDR...etc)

Battlefield 3. There have been many times when playing that I would be like "holy shit this is so pretty!"
Also any time Capcom makes a game for the 3DS.

Soul Calibur (yes the first one) on the Dreamcast, no question.

The jump in graphic quality over everything else at the time was drool inducing. I haven't seen a jump like that since.
