    I'm going to try to pick each of mine from a seperate genre.

    So:

    RPG - Final Fantasy Games on a console although this is tied very close with Xeno Gears. / The world Ends with you on portable, really original, it's on the DS, well worth buying or downloading.

    MMORPG - Ragnarok Online, getting old now, but no other MMO gave me so much fun.

    FPS - Torn between CS and Halo, but will go with Halo since I like driving and flying.

    Sandbox - Shenmue, GTA can suck it, loved this game to bits on my DC.

    Sports/Skating - Jet Set Radio

    Racing - Forza 2, love this game to bits.

    Fighter - Tekken, really love this game too.

    Beat em up - Power Stone 2, another awesome game.

    Puzzle/Mystery solver - Ace Attorney, OBJECTION anyone?

    Platformer - Super Mario bros.

    Anyway, know there is more than 5 there, but genre is easier to filter by.
