2000-2009 is almost over, and these 10 years brought hundreds of great new gaming experiences. What were your favorites?
In no particular order, and including only one game from each series, I'd have to say

50 is WAY too many, so I'm going to go with a simple ten.
1. Legend of Heroes : Sora no Kiseki (FC, SC & 3rd) 2. Tales of Vesperia 3. Grandia 2 4. Suikoden (2 & 5) 5. Ys Origin 6. Phantasy Star Online 7. Skies of Arcadia 8. Pokemon Gold/Silver 9. Disgaea 2 10. Uncharted 2
Honourable mentions to the VN stuff I didn't include (Tsukihime, Umineko) and Shining Force 3 which was *just* out of the time boundary.

To be fair a few of these games are only in the list because of their US release dates. VP and Pokemon are TECHNICALLY 1999 but who's counting anyway;..

Oh lord. I have to keep checking on release dates for a topic like this. :P I suppose I'll list all the ones that I became attached to at some point or another which meant they were favourites then! And maybe still! All right, brain. We can do this! Let's start digging through them memories!!! In no particular order: - Chaos Legion (JP, PS2)
- OZ & The Sword of Etheria
- played both but only completed the Japanese release -- as in got all items and endings. Couldn't finish my run on Hard mode though. 'Twas too tough for me. DD:
- Dynasty Warriors 4 (PS2)
- Musou Orochi (PS2)
- Sengoku Basara 2 and Heroes
- Shadow Hearts: Covenant
- Kingdom Hearts II (JP, never finished the NA release)
- Ouendan
- Henry Hatsworth
- Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow
- Taiko no Tatsujin Wii & Wii 2
- Taiko no Tatsujin DS & DS 2
- Taiko no Tatsujin Portable 2
- DJMax Portable, Portable 2, Clazziquai Edition, & Black Square
- DJMax Trilogy
- DJMax Online (JP and China)
- Ys SEVEN
- Ys I . II Complete
- Honestly, I'd like to write Ys ETERNAL and Ys II ETERNAL separately but the former came out in 1998. :P
- Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim
- Ys Origin
- Okami (PS2)
- Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII - (JP, never finished NA release)
- Grandia II (PC)
- The War of Genesis III Part 2
- Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening Special Edition (PS2)
- Star Wars: Republic Commando (PC)
- Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars (PC)
Brain didn't help much. I have a feeling I'm missing some. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story would qualify for my list as well but I didn't add it on since I never even finished it. XD (BF still has the cart.)

Stealing Varion's idea and doing a top ten, or else I'll be here all day. Also stealing his idea of combining series entries into one choice, or else I'll be missing out way too many nice games. ^_^
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter Grandia II (and the first game, assuming I can take its EU release date) Klonoa 2 Persona 2: Eternal Punishment Popolocrois Monogatari II Suikoden (II, V, and to a lesser extent III) Uncharted 2 (I'm really surprised that I'm putting this down. Since when do I like action games with a heavy dose of gunplay this much? ^_^) Vagrant Story Xenosaga (Especially I and III) Ys (The Oath in Felghana and Seven. Haven't played Origin yet, and Ark is just a little below the other two for me.)
I dearly wanted to add Mana Khemia, Skies of Arcadia, and a huge number of others, but I couldn't convince myself I liked them better than any of the ones on the list. There have been so many wonderful games this decade!

Not gonna post 50, but here's 10 I love the crap out of. There could be many more, but these are the cream of the crop.
Final Fantasy X Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions Okami Ys: The Oath in Felghana Super Mario Galaxy The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Suikoden II (going by the EU release date) The Ace Attorney series. If I have to pick one, Trials and Tribulations Chaos Legion Valkyrie Profile 2
