Why were PS1 pre-rendered backgrounds so sexy, bros?

Because they were single pre-rendered images that you can't interact with. That's why all those games had fixed camera angles, and once sequels gave moving cameras they dropped the pre-rendered backwards as they no longer worked.

when it's just one picture that you can't interact with, the only limit to how good it can look is how good your artist is. That isn't true with modern game design styles, though.

They used limited technology and still made good games that look great

I love that game

Err, no. There were still limits, to the hardware making the renders and to the target hardware (PS2) that had limits to texture sizes and resolutions.
What are the best looking ps1 games? PE2? RE3? Fear effect? Dino Crisis 2?

The prerendered backgrounds in Parasite Eve already look dated.

Chrono Cross

Shame really because in a sense I was actually more scared of PE than Resident Evil. Some of that shit was fucked up as a kid.

Probably a driving game, or fighting game like Tekken 3.
MGS, FFVIII and Chrono Cross come to mind too.
