Graphical evolution of FPS

The video could have been a lot shorter.

Wolfenstein > Quake 1 > Quake 2 > Quake 3 > Doom 3 > Battlefield 3 > Done.
 
I knew they'd end this vid off with Battlefield 3. Well, given its year(ing) span, it only makes sense that the Frostbiteâ„¢2 Engine would be shown last.
 
I dunno, when you use the word "evolution" I expect significant improvement. So Wolfenstein to Quake makes sense in that there was a jump from 2D to 3D.

Quake to Quake 2 because of 3D accelleration and so on.

Big leaps are what to me count as "evolution" not incremental improvements like Crysis 2 > Crysis 3.
 
What evolutionary changes haven't been significant? Do changes have to be gradual?

The gradual development of something, esp. from a simple to a more complex form.

Yeah, I confused revolution with evolution...
