I can't really pick one, but these guys are going to dominate: Bioware, Square Enix, Atlus, Nippon Ichi, Level 5, and Mistwalker If I were to choose one, I would say Bioware or Mistwalker: they just have better games right now. Atlus still has a ton of games coming to the PS2 and DS, so I'm not really worried about them.
1) Halo: Combat Evolved- Well, I this was my favorite game for obvious reasons, it revolutionized the FPS genre on consoles, and LAN basically owned. People say the story is cliched, but I have to say it wasn't cliched: it was done well, and I enjoyed it. Master Chief has, in my opinion, become a major icon in the gaming industry, perhaps above Snake and other influential game characters. This was the number one reason to buy an Xbox; and it was the only reason I bought an Xbox. 2) Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater- This was my first game into the MGS series. I have to say, it was absolutely breath taking. I have never played a game as emotional as MGS3, the last boss battle was the most amazing thing I have every seen in a game. The setting was fabulous, and I actually enjoyed it...even on the aged PS2. 3) Ninja Gaiden Black- This game is the king of its genre, its difficulty and style really made it stand out from other games. It was flat out: Fun, I enjoyed it immensely. 4) Resident Evil 4- This was also the first game I played in the series. The production value for this game was superb. The gameplay was over the top, and it was a bit more difficult than your average shooter. This game also looked fantastic, the setting was eerie and realistic, in a sense. Although, more could have been done: especially with the cliched ending, it was a fantastic game that really deserves a spot on my top five list. 5) Metroid Prime- I have to say, a year ago, I hated this game. I couldn't get over the fact that Metroid went 3D and FP. I found the gameplay boring and just lame. Well, I've been playing it the past two days, and it is incredible. I think I was too bitter about it going in FP and 3D. But really, this game is incredible, the atmosphere in it is not found in many games.
