Hmmm..... going to try and think of games that would benefit most from amnesia i.e. those that are heavily story-based. Also those that don't rely on skills previously learned - I see people listing stuff like CS which is a multiplayer FPS and I can see that being pretty awful if you'd lost your memories and had to learn how to aim with a mouse again etc meanwhile playing vs 10 year veterans.
1) KOTOR
2) Deus Ex
3) GTA Vice City
4) Max Payne
5) Mass Effect
6) Dragon Age Origins
7) COD4
8) Dawn of War
9) Freespace 2
10) Fallout 3
1. FFX
2. Kingdom Hearts 1/2
3. MGS 1/3
4. Bioshock 1
5. Zelda Series
6. Half Life Series
7. Stalker SoC
8. Mass Effect 1/2
9. Metro 2033
10. Korsakovia (HL2 Mod)
In no particular order and tbh that isn't even half of the games I would make myself play, hell I would probably even put the old Spyro games in there.
After the top 6 I start to get into games I just really enjoyed, however games like FFX, the Kingdom Hearts series etc really are by far the most enjoying experiences I think I've ever had.

Stalker : CS - Complete mod
Stalker : COP - SGM 2.1 mod
Deus Ex
Quake
Far Cry
Morrowind - Overhaul - Sound and Graphics mod
Deus Ex : Human Revolution

SOF2 - mp
CS:S
SS2 - with a myriad of mods
Doom (PS1)
Fear (1)
As mentioned, this could go on and on, but the above were among the first I could think of.
So many of us naming same games does this mean despite nearly a range of 20 years of gaming only 10-20 titles stand out as top class games?!?!?
But I guess if we were to do same list with movies wed all name similar list with only 20-30 different ones probs?
Just some games are AAA and some are just A. Such as games like Freedom Fighters, Infamous, Batman, Hitman, and others that I have enjoyed over the years but there are many games like this good games but not AAA
1. Metal Gear Solid
2. Metal Gear Solid 2
3. Metal Gear Solid 4
4. Star Wars JK:JA II
5. GTA San Andreas
6.Timesplitters 1 and 2
7.Half Life 2 series
8. Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec
9. Counter Strike Source
10. Spyro the Dragon
