Edit: Didn't see it had 3 votes already, but here's another.
So much fun.
Especially with the mythics.

PS3:

Metal Gear solid 4- One of the best games for the PS3 although at times it feels more like Im watching a movie than playing a game

Valkyria chonicles- If you like strategy RPGs such advance wars and fire emblem, you'll love this game

Uncharted- great game, that's really all I can say about it

Rock band series- Do I have to explain?

Street fighter 4- one of the better fighters ive played in some time. Controls are very fluid and very unique characters. Online play is good for the most part despite some annoyances I have with the way some people play on there.

DS:

Phoenix Wright series - I said it before and I'll say it again, these IMO are some of the best games for the DS and is really the reason I got the DS in the first place. Great story and characters make you fall in love with the game immediatly.

Elite Beat Agents Very fun rhythm game although you should buy a screen protector for this game. You could destroy the touch screen if you don't

My recommendations:

360:

Rainbow Six Vegas: 2 - This game is really fun to play. Really awesome cover system, the story mode is exciting and not too short. Plus, you have a populous multiplayer and terrorist hunts where people yell "Shoot the fuckers!"

Viva Pinata - Seems a little childish, but actually really fun. Have fun raising litte animal shaped pinatas. Plus, you can hit animals with a shovel.

The Orange Box - This game bundle includes Portal, Half Life 2, HL:2 Ep. 1 and 2, and Team Fortress 2 and all of the games are really just awesome, TF2 and Portal especially. Portal has a quirky sense of humor and so many puzzling-puzzles and TF2 is just a fabulous multiplayer game. Can't wait for the patches to be released.

EDIT: I support the L4D vote. And, 1000 post! woo!

A couple questions:

1) This seems like a concise version of the game reviews thread. For that reason, I wonder if a link to that thread can be added to the OP. Even though I think these threads have different games in them (you'll notice SNES dominates that thread), more information isn't a bad thing.

2) Is this mainly focused on the newer consoles, like 6th/7th gen consoles? I love the older ones (well... 3rd-5th, lol) most. Plus, who knows who amongst us may be looking to try some older games.

I'll post suggestions for Wii at a later point, at the least.

Is there any reason the PSP isn't on the list of recommended games?

I ask because a friend of mine is obsessed with his PSP, and I know no one at all besides him who likes the PSP at all. He's not a member of the SH community, so there's no need to add it because of him >_>.

i see the DS is lacking with a massive ZERO titles recommended

so here's a few

Mario Kart DS: I don't know many people who don't enjoy a good round of mario kart every once in a while. This one is portable works as well as any other and you can play it online. Its also kinda of old now so a used copy will be easy to find. All in all, it's a great game.

Brain Age 2: Great game for a casual gamer young and old or someone completely new to video games. You can improve your intelligence or just play a game of sudoku or a clone of Dr. Mario. Also just like their slogan says, you can play it whenever you have a few minutes free or spend a few hours playing.

Halo 3 is the bomb. Vote for that. CODWaW is also pretty good with nazi zombies but halo wins.

For the Wii:

Wario Ware: Smooth Moves: It's a very fun casual game. If you aren't familiar with the series, what you do is play through a story type mode. For each level, you play a series of small "microgames" (5 second minigames). Throughout the level, speed gets faster and harder. It also takes advantage of the motion controls, making some of the coolest microgames I've seen on the series. In addition to the story levels, there is freeplay mode for microgames you've unlocked and various extra games. The extra games range from "Tower Tennis", where you take control of a paddle and hit a pingpong ball up a tower filled with obstacles, to "Can Shooter", where you shoot cans without getting hit by them. The game also features a multiplayer mode, where you can face off against your friends. No online though.

My recommendations for now

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Definitely better than WaW if you want a multiplayer experience even with the lack of Nazi Zombies. Also sets you free from the repetitive WWII story lines.

Banjo-Tooie (XBLA) - For the nostalgic or those looking for a superb platformer this is a great choice. The levels are more massive than it's predecessor, it still contains a hell of a challenge (Grunty Industries anyone?), it's still funny as ever and has an option to Replay all of the mini-games and bosses for personal best times. It may cost 1200 points but for it's depth and re-playability I highly recommend it.

I would like to reccommend Command and Conquer Red Alert 3. You'll either pick out the flaws and hate it or embrace the new battle system and love it

And add a vote to Fallout 3

Can't you make a section for multi-console games? It's annoying that all three home consoles have CoDWaW and the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 lists are almost completely identical.
