Dream Cast is part of last gen. Just because it dropped out early does not mean it was out entirly.

None of these are in any order, and yes I cheated a bit to get past the 5 game limit ;) Also I added the future section just for fun.


Last Gen:

Fable
Halo Series
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory (online made this game)
Smash
Various Fighting Games (street fighter,CvS2,Marvel vs Capcom 2)



For the future:

Halo 3
Fable 2
Marvel vs Capcom 3 (**** you EA games)
Guitar Hero/Drum Hero/Rock Band/DDR Next
The Nintendo Crew

4) RE4
5) Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner

Smash doesn't count, because it's bound to be in (almost) everybody's Top 5. And now that I think about it, last generation was great for people with the PS2. What an awesome selection of games it had.

Not including rereleases:

PS2:

Metal Gear Solid 2 - The game is too solid.
Tekken 5 - As a big fan of Tekken 3, this one tickled my fancy bone far more than 4.
Red Faction - Everything about this game is so good.
Tekken Tag Tournament - I'm a Mishima player, so, uh, yay.
Dar Cloud - Played this through too many times. I love it.

XBOX:

Ninja Gaiden - Cool-ish.
Halo - Pistol time!
Halo 2 - ESword time!

No other good unique games.

GC:

Super Smash Bros. Melee - ...
Super Mario Sunshine - This > 64. Yeah, I said it.

No other good unique games.

I'm kind of biased towards Gamecube, as it's the only system I have but:

1.) Metroid Prime series
2.) Viewtiful Joe series
3.) SSBM
4.) Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
5.) Star Fox: Assault (I don't know why, but I really like this game)
6.) Resident Evil 4

GCN

1. Metroid Prime
2. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
3. Resident Evil 4
4. Super Smash Bros. Melee
5. Pac-Man VS

PS2

1. Shadow of the Colossus / ICO
2. Final Fantasy XII
3. Okami
4. Katamari Damacy
5. Final Fantasy X

Xbox

1. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
2. Panzer Dragoon Orta
3. Halo / Halo 2
4. Knights of the Old Republic / KotOR2:TSL
5. Jet Set Radio Future

(yeah, I just stuck multi-platform titles under the systems I played them on. *shrug*)

Soul Calibur 2 is definitely somewhere in there, I just happened to own all 3 versions of it, haha.

Note: This isn't necessarily a list of the best games of last generation. I haven't played them all, and I don't want to comment on ones that I haven't experienced. These are just the ones that I had the most fun playing.
