> To us the elephant in the room limitation of PS1 is not mentioned here as far as I could tell from a quick read-through: it had no Z-buffer.

There is a section "Visibility Approach" under the GPU section that starts: "Just like the competition, the PS1 doesn’t include any hardware feature that solves the visibility problem."

I agree that it doesn't really stress the ramifications of that.
