For the guy who denies it was Virtual On, but we all know it actually was:

VOOT! Virtual On Oratorio Tangram coming to XBLA - Joystiq

Can't wait for this!

[Diamicles]

Honorable mention I forgot for the rhythm games is FREQuency, the first game that RedOctane put out iirc. Loads of button tapping fun for the PS2.

I think this is the game he was talking about, it took me a long time to remember what the name was.

I refuse to believe it ... no matter what !

[Nephlite]

You know, for so many people who participated in this, not many put FFXI down. Probably one of the games many people in this forum who've logged the most playtime of any game they've ever played, and it doesn't even make the cut? Not to say playtime = greatness, but c'mon. Some of you gotta love it.

Anyways: (Favorites First...)

FFVII
Xenogears
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Fallout 3
Street Fighter 2: Alpha
Breath of Fire III
NFL Gameday 98'
Tecmo Superbowl
FFXI
Parasite Eve
Resident Evil 4

I love ffxi, but I tried to list games that were revolutionary in some kind of way, originals that has since been copied/expanded on multiple times, or my absolute favorites in a series... FFXI wasn't any of these things, but that doesn't mean I don't love the game.

[Fiendishone]

No particular order cuz theres several:

Super Mario RPG
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Xenogears
Ico
Alundra (the most challenging RPG I have ever played)
Vandal Hearts
Halo

[avos]

Here's my list

Perfect Dark
Star Fox 64
Legend of Zelda: Majora's mask
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Bioshock

[miokomioko]

Majora's Mask... are you KIDDING ME?!

Not to argue about personal tastes and whatnot, but was I the only person who, after playing Ocarina of Time, felt like Majora's Mask was a budget piece of shit? What wasn't already recycled straight out of OoT seemed to have some of the worst, rushed, low budget animation/design/etc and the entire story was a big "oh he was just passing through this town and something happened" and related in no way to any of the legacy/legends/franchise/etc. I played it all the way through and got everything (fierce diety and all) but wow... I was so annoyed and disappointed by how it looked and felt... The ending's animation of the giants and retarded moon and whatnot gave me a hernia.

Sorry, don't know what came over me, that game just irked me.

[avos]

I really enjoyed it, I just found myself playing it on and on. It may have not been better than OoT but it keep me entertained for many hours. Oh and those transformations were actually pretty cool.
