1. Starcraft (PC) - far and away one of the best 2.5D games of all time. Not only was gameplay good, but it included a good level editor and fantastic internet-based multiplayer gaming.
2. Halo (XBox) - THE reason to buy the original Xbox when it debuted, and the reason for many, MANY LAN parties not of the PC variety.
3. World of Warcraft (PC) - excellent combination of arcade game, role-playing game, and internet community. I would put Everquest in front of it as the genre grandfather, but I never ventured into Ever-crack territory.
4. Rainbow Six 3 (XBox) - excellent team-play requiring tactics and communication. I was hooked in less than two hours of network play. To this day, I get video games that are internet-enabled, and rarely (if ever) play the single-player mode.
5. Guitar Hero III (Xbox 360) - This is a great party game which appeals to a HUGE number of people. It's good enough that I'm going back to look at the earlier titles - something I never do.
