Random order:
Dragon Quest VIII--Perfect in every way. Love the scale, humour, music. It's everything a traditional rpg should be and indeed this is the very best of 'em all.
Metroid Prime--At the time, this could not be bested, great atmosphere, tight-ass controls, it was truly Metroid as it should be in 3d. Strangely enough it's subsequent Prime games that actually diminish the brilliance of the first. MP2 was good, but felt like a cheap sequel, MP Pinball is a fine game in it's own right, but again it did little good for the Prime franchise and MP: Hunters is an okay game that shoulnd't have been made.
Zelda: the Wind Waker--Nintendo doing what they do best. No, not the best Zelda game, but the awesome graphics, sound design, controls and a fun story and dungeons (if too little) make this a great great addition to the series. Shame about the difficulty though.
Shadow Hearts: Covenant Kinda like Metroid Prime, From the New World really shouldn't have been made, as it is a below-par rpg and feel like an incredibly cheap and easy sequel. But that doesn't change the fact that Covenant is one of the funniest and fun-to-play rpg's there is. I'm not very fond of the drab, gray-ish feel the game has, but it works well (though not as well as the first games' dark atmos), also I hate having to select locations instead of actually walking to them, but those are minor quibbles.
Knights of the Old Republic Can't really say anything bad about this one. I love Star Wars and this had some of the coolest characters it's universe has. Great story and an awesome twist and some great locations and a lengthy quest make it a must-play.
Ah screw it, five is too hard:
Tales of Symphonia
Silent Hill 3
Final Fantasy X
Baten Kaitos
Resident Evil 4
We <3 Katamari
Radiata Stories
ICO
Shadow of the Colossus
MGS3
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
Super Mario Sunshine
Shenmue 2
Psychonauts
Suikoden V
Yes, I hate these lists too, but I felt bad leaving some games out

And the rest is all under that.
And the rest is all under that.
Still very subject to change, as I've yet to play/finish everything I want, and a few possible entries have still yet to release (Final Fantasy XII, Rogue Galaxy, Twilight Princess, God of War 2, etc.):
1. Shadow of the Colossus (Team Ueda/SCE)
2. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (Kojima Productions/Konami)
3. ICO (Team Ueda/SCE)
4. Dark Cloud 2 (Level 5/SCE)
5. REZ (United Game Artists/Sega)
Too many honorables to mention. A Top 10 list would be much better; 5 is a tad small.

If I have to leave out Dreamcast games (and their ports to other systems... Sakura Taisen 3, Culdcept 2, Space Channel 5 Pt 2...)
5. (Up for grabs)
4. Halo Combat Evolved
First FPS I've enjoyed since... Goldeneye 007. Halo definitely isn't perfect... it's rightfully criticized for its repetitive interior stage design. But it's everything else that is fantastic. It's the first time where I've encountered a world so expansive that I actually felt like I was part of it. Playing on Legendary totally makes the game that much more strategic too. It's too bad that Halo 2 destroyed everything I liked about Halo.
3. Zero/Fatal Frame/Project Zero
This is the first survival horror game I've liked - It's genuinely creepy AND it's fun to play. Although Crimson Butterfly had a more complex/deeper camera system, there was just something to be said about the intensity of the first game. The first game was more action-y, requiring fast reaction times and accuracy take down opponents. It's like a more strategic FPS. The first game also has the creepiest atmosphere. I loved it so much I played it 3x! XBox ver has an additional boss on its highest difficulty.
2. Ninja Gaiden Black
I did not think I'd like it, but its reputation of being a hard game pulled me in... and never let me go. I love how it's a game that you need to practice in order to get good at. When you first play, you will die and die a lot. But it forces you to learn how to play the game and sooner or later, you've overcome it. Then you try it on Hard and are blown away by all the upgraded enemies and even new enemies! Then you try it on even harder difficulties and see that they even have new bosses. Team Ninja pulled out all the stops. You just can't help respect them after this.
1. Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter
Nothing compares. Forget the SOL stuff. The core game has a lot of strategic depth. The combination of AP points, magic traps, and combos make it far more advanced than SRPGs I've played. The ability to influence a fight before you enter it (ie, their PETS system) is also nicely integrated. Nothing has evolved the stale genre as much as this game, folks.

5. Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance (PS2) more bonus content FTW
4. Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution (PS2) updated to perfection
3. God Of War (PS2) western developers CAN kick some major ass?!
2. Metroid Prime (GC) 2d to 3d transformation executed almost perfectly all the while staying true to the series origins
1. Resident Evil 4 (GC) from beginning to end, heart pounding, adrenaline driven pure gaming FUN!
Halo and GTA fanboys can suck my left nut. Sadly I haven't played but a few minutes of Ninja Gaiden so I can't really add it to my list.. but F-Zero GX is so close to making it.
Also if DC is to be listed then Ikaruga would be placed 7th.

Your list pretty much mirros mine, except replace Metal Gear Solid with F Zero GX. Even the runners-up are right.
I need to include pc.
1.Hl2(+HL2 DM.CSS/DoDS, yes its fair ITS PACKED IN THE ****ING GAME silver pack ,srry life is a bitch + source = innovation engine of last gen... deal with it)
2. Warcraft: RoC + TFT (i really dont care what anybody says about it unless they can beat me at it which would mean that they comprehend the game better then i do, and hence their word > mine.)
3.MGS 2( YES 3 is a superior game, but 2-3 years too late( i suck at dates). Srry it just didnt have this one's wow factor)
4. Gran Turismo A-spec ( shame on all of you for not including this ****ing labor of love.)
5. SF3s (you have to squeeze it somewhere and eh this gen seems just fine)/VF4 evo( sheer admiration for the game although i personally dont enjoy it at all, superb pro-gaming platform)
Honorable mentions: WoW certainly deserves to be up there but when you weigh in the pros and cons its a tough call. Pros :Nothing quite like it in sheer scale, community included. Cons: Monthly fees and selling your soul. SSBM rocked as well.

My top 5 so far (zelda will obviously be the best):
5. KOTOR
4. GTA: SA
3. Metroid Prime
2. MGS3
1. RE4

1. Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess- Best game ever, so obviously it's going to be no. 1 this gen.
2. SSBM: The only GC game worth playing til F-Zero GX came out.
3. Resident Evil 4
4. Shadow of the Colossus
5. Paper Mario 2
The last 3 I just had to randomly think of. Might change it in a bit.

Half-Life 2 is incredible, it's definitely top 5 material... but the topic only said "PS2, GCN and Xbox", so I didn't consider any PC games.
But yeah, you definitely have to try Pikmin 2! There are a few who don't like the 'random caves', of which there are many, but I loved everything.

Halo
Medieval: Total War
Fire Emblem: PoR
Guitar Hero gets an honorable mention instead of being on the list because I don't own it, I can just tell it will be from what I've played (getting 360 version).

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
There is a common misunderstanding that Wind Waker, Final Fantasy X, Super Mario Sunshine, Ico, Metroid Prime (one and two), and Halo are good games. They're not.
But, we had lots of good games this gen none-the-less.
5. Gitaroo Man, Rez, Guitar Hero, DDR, SingStar
4. Metal Gear Solid 2, 3, Substance, Substinence, Psychonauts, Okami, Yakuza, Transformers, Gregory Horror Show
3. Shadow of the Colossus, God of War, Devil May Cry 3, Resident Evil 4, Half-Life 2, killer7 (although not great in any sense of the word but "the great failure" known as Suda51 who almost spoiled this one shot at greatness, the ever dependable Capcom did good in postponing this)
2. Final Fantasy XII, Kingdom Hearts II, Rogue Galaxy, Dragon Quest VIII, Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga, World of Warcraft
1. Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, San Andreas

5. ChuChu Rocket! - Dreamcast
4. Shenmue II - Dreamcast (European)
3. Hot Shots Golf: Fore! - PS2
2. Phantasy Star Online Ep. I & II - Gamecube
1. Jet Grind Radio - Dreamcast
These are my five favorite games for either DC, GC, Nuon, PS2, or XBox. Absolutely zero objectivity here, folks. Objectively, Shenmue II shouldn't appear near a top games list. Even so, the experience was awesome for me because I love the characters, visuals, sounds, and was wowed by the grand scope of the project.
I played hundreds of rounds of ChuChu Rocket! online and wish there was still a way to play people online, complete with the 1 second lag.
I'm a golf game enthusiast, so naturally I am drawn to the Hot Shots Golf series.
I've spent over 1,000 hours playing various versions of Phantasy Star Online (mostly during Summer 2003) despite the repetitiveness of it all.
And Jet Grind Radio, I think I will play it again right now!

DMC3, so good i bought it twice.
Mercenaries - The best sandbox game, don't care about GTA's after playing mercs
Shadow of the Colossus - makes you proud to be into games.
DQ8 - exactley the way i like rpg gameplay, plus the best presentation i've ever seen in a rpg
MGS3 - good in so many ways
if you included pc my list would be different (hl2, Dawn of War etc.)

5 is to little so I'll do 10.
1. Metal Gear Solid 2-The first MGS game I ever played and I thought it was amazing. I had never played a game that I thought had a great story and felt like a movie. This game really brought me into the world of gaming.
2.Final Fantasy X-I also thought this game had a great story. I really liked the narrative and the characters, especially Tidus. The battle system was awesome and the game just felt like a big epic adventure. Also, I felt the dub was good.
3.Metal Gear Solid 3-Preatty much all the same reasons that I gave for 2 minus the experience of playing a game like this for the first time.
4.Grand Theft Auto 3-I love the atmosphere, the open world, and the humor. GTA 3 is an amazing game.
5.Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner- I love mechs(Gundam) and ZOE is the best mech game ever. The gameplay is awesome and fast.
6.Resident Evil 4-The gameplay is just awesome. A great experience.
7.Digital Devil Saga 2-The story and graphics are awesome and unique. As, is the music. The battle system is the best RPG battle system of this generation.
8.Kingdom Hearts 2-I just really liked the game.
9.Max Payne 2-The game is just really well made. Its made with love. The story is awesome as is the gameplay.
10.Halo 2-Fantastic multiplayer game. So many memories.

metroid prime, resident evil 4, and half-life 2 were all too good to put them on any tiers of excellence. i get the same pants-filling jubilation everytime someone just mentions their existence.
i enjoyed lots of great games this generation, as there were many, but these three in particular just stood head and shoulders above the rest.

Interesting art from the pre-trenchcoat Dante days. But further proof why dmc is king. I remember walking into the cathedral for the first time way back in 2001 to combo some demonic clown puppets in the air was memorable as **** with the lighting, animation and art design going full force.

4. Super Mario Sunshine- an awesome sequal to sm64(yeah people, its IS a sequal, deal with it.)
3. Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker -Awesomness occured here. The graphics, gameplay and story come together to create an amazing work of art.
2. F-Zero GX - Feels like a Next-Gen game on my good ole' gamecube. This title was amazingly fast, dufficult, beautiful and addicting.
1. Super Smash Bros. Melee- Nothing beats it, its the first title I put into my GCN and it will always be there. Smash was awesome on all fronts, its a game that everyone can play. While some multiplayer games make my friends pissed when they loose(halo), SSBM was a game where they wouldnt get mad....besides I wouldnt know how that feels...Im reffered to as the "Smash Master" among my friends.

3) Metroid Prime
4) SSX 3
5) Prince of Persia
With these as possible alternates:
- Winning Eleven series
- GTA series
- Viewtiful Joe
- SSBM
- Wind Waker
I still have yet to play Gof of War, Snake Eater, Pikmin 2, BG&E, and a handful of other notable titles, as well as a few RPGs (DQVIII, DDS, etc). I'm sure the list will change in the next couple of months.
