My fellow gamers, which consoles was the biggest monster for it's time surpassed what PC doing in that time?

SNES

Which console with the SEGA does what nintendon't advert? That one.

I'd say PS1, Dreamcast and PS2 all easily surpassed PC at their specific times.

16-32 bit era definitely felt like consoles were doing better games in general. After that console gaming started feeling like PC gaming with bad controls.

PS1 was before 3d accelleration was mainstream or well supported on PC (though that changed a within two years or so).

PS3 and 360 were better than most high end rigs at their launch.

Nes/Genesis had dedicated spirte/scrolling hardware that was difficult for PCs to compete with at decent speeds even though their CPUs were way more powerful.

Consoles being weaker than PCs at launch is a relatively modern thing.

The 16-bit era was really the one time when consoles were WAY ahead of anything a computer could do, at least early on. DOS PC gaming was only just starting to really come into its own, and the Genesis and SNES games were routinely outperforming anything you'd see on the Amiga or Atari ST. The 32-bit era's when we started seeing graphics cards really take hold, which allowed Win95 PCs to really sing. That's really when you started seeing how easy it was to just buy performance pretty much on a whim.

If I'm remembering right, the SNES and Genesis could do games better than the PC back then. This persisted into maybe the PS2/GC/Xbox era. One game that comes to mind is N64's Turok, which was a technical showcase for the system at the time.

Nvidia said that mid PS2 era was when PC started to stretch its muscles.

Yep, the N64 for its time was seen as powerful, when the expansion pack came for the N64, it was like upgrading a GPU at the time, most games couldn't run without it such as Donkey Kong 64, Perfect Dark, & Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask comes to mind. Turork was a technical achievement, I always ask myself why this game is so foggy but when the PC version came out, it really showed that the N64 was limited in ways but still a technical showcase as you pointed out.

The 3do was a monster when it released i understand. Doing things no one had seen. I never interacted with it though.

To be honest the ps5 is still now a leap ahead of what pcs are doing untill windows 11 adds direct accsess for faster loading times.

Yea the psx was impressive on launch. But their was a section of pc that had that capability it was just nieche and very expensive in the pc space and psx made it affordable. Which is what the consoles generally do.
