The first standout example was VGA and games that fully took advantage of it. I was an Amiga user but AGA was too little too late and architecturally a disaster for certain games (DOOM, Quake). Even games like Monkey Island and Indiana Jones were a lot better on VGA than Amiga. The game that did it for me was Privateer vs Elite II. I had to get a PC after I saw it. It was crystal clear the Amiga could not compete.
