Just out of the xbox/PS2/GC games, what do you think the most influential and innovative games so far are? The game doesn't necessarily have to be GOOD, just good IDEA's Ones that may or may not stand the test of times....

For me, the ones that pop to mind quickest, are:

Dark Cloud series - Acutally having a significant impact on the RPG world you're playing in, #1 was good, #2 was brilliant, and I can only hope it gets better from there, and that other RPG games take note!

Blinx - I haven't played it, but from what I've seen, it's an OK game, with a GREAT concept.

Grand Theft Auto 3 - Hate it or love it, for better or for worse, it DID change gaming.

SSX - not earth-shattering, but this is the game that WOW'ed me on the PS2 release. good graphics, good speed, good tricks, good control, just a very well-balanced, great game. What was the last DECENT skiing/snowboarding game you played before this?
