    God of War II. I played it in my nephew's PS2, I beated it twice, then I decided to play the first, but... it seemed so inferior (obvious, being the first), I played 2 hours of it and just stoped.

    Oblivion, for sure.
    Every game looked so small after it, even Bethesda's own Fallout 3.

    Only Skyrim can be (or at least feel) bigger than this beast.

    ZOE2 was rape. Too bad we will never get ZOE3.

    Portal 2.

    Basically, I expect every game to have low system requirements, great humour and addictive gameplay now, after having beaten it.

    Oblivion spoiled part of the "WOW" factor of games, no game has felt as large to me as it had when I first played it. Hell, it took me hundreds of hours to finally be able to have a proper opinion of Fallout 3 because I realized that no matter how great it was it just wouldn't amaze me thanks to Oblivion.

    Funny enough, the Mass Effect series has spoiled me into a casual gamer. Mostly because I maxed out everything possible with ten playthroughs in Mass Effect and then when I finally got Mass Effect 2...it was a major disappointment. Since then I've only played games less and less, to the point where I hardly play any now.

    I'm gonna say GTA IV. Why? Well after playing, all the updated features, better physics, better vehicle damage modeling system. It just looks great on a lot of levels. Playing the other 3D GTA games is kinda meh now. Though I still enjoy playing the top-down GTAs.

    And you've really played all the other games? I was gonna make a list and stuff, but it's probably better to ask this first. :O

    I agree as well that Tierkreis is pretty damn good too but its like its own game, not part of the original series and gameplay style.

    Rockstar's Manhunt, I have beaten that game at least 12 times.

    Also a lot of racing games I do pretty damn good at.

    Ever since I got it for the PSP (yes, I was very late to the party), I have compared all of the game in the series to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and found them lacking. Even Aria of Sorrow, which I believe to be the single greatest GBA game ever made, and one of my all time favorite games.

    Well, I used to have a computer that was so crappy you wouldn't believe it, after I got a new one I played one game that had 3D graphics and then it changed my whole gaming world. I don't dare touch another 2D game, unless it's for a console.

    Baldur's Gate II. I got that game before I got Baldur's Gate I, and as a result, I couldn't get into it as much as I may have been able to had I played BG1 first.

    Oh well.

    I want the level cap to be this high everywhere. Seriously, I don't even understand why sometimes....I just want 4 digits.

    Fallout 3
    It's been stated, but in relation to this game, I have just about stopped enjoying Oblivion, which is strange because up until playing Fallout I always preferred the more medieval type games.

    Marvel vs. Capcom 3
    This is not a good spoiling. This is not a good spoiling at all. I can't help but be amazed at how easy it is to combo, and just how bad most people I've played are. In fighting games my style has always been a more conservative take on combos. That is, I can perform some high damage combos, but I always weigh the cost of attempting the combos vs. something else based on how it starts and what I need to do to land it. If the combo starts from a massively unsafe/slow/low range move, I'd probably just go for something simpler/less damaging. In MvC 3 that doesn't matter, and people seem to go for everything reclessly which I can generally deal with easily, not to say that I'm great, but it's mindless.
    On the other hand, switching back to even CS 2 is pretty difficult now D=.
