Devil May Cry: Set the bar for all action games to follow with its fantastic new (at the time) combat system that style and substance and squished them together.

I fully agree with this. The ending was a shock, and the rest was innovative..fullmetalangel said:

Two others:
Darkwatch: To successfully integrate Western and Vampire themes in the game, with the shadows and light being innovative with how you react to them.
Duke Nukem 3D: Not only made a 2-D plane look 3-D, but had a high degree of environmental interaction.

All modern shooters are based on it's concept. 'cept for Serious Sam and Painkiller witch has more Doom to them.
Honorable mention goes to "Half-Life".

i think that legend of zelda the wind waker, while not inventing cel shading, definitely made it more popular.
also, whichever game made it popular to make real games always be brown and gray. dont know what it was, but it can fall in a ditch and die. real isnt brown. real is colorful.

I have to put this here:
Pokemon: the first RPG that gave you a completely flexible team, and explained why. Too bad the games since Gold and Silver have been lousy.
And Warcraft III Worldedit: the first game that gave anyone the ability to make mods without needing much in the way of skill. Just patience.
Finally: Blizzard. The company that showed us that expansion packs could be best sellers. Now, if only they would create a new game, instead of recreating the old three.

I think along with Pokémon, you should specifically consider the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, since you not only play as a Pokémon, but all the Pokémon in the games actually talks, instead of saying their name, or other random noises. Already a winner to me.
Psychonauts definitely has one of the best level concepts ever. For those who have never played Psychonauts (and shame on you), or seen Yahtzee's review of it, almost all of the gaming levels were in the minds of crazy people. Awesome, right?
Although the gameplay itself kinda stunk, I think the funniest games out there were games like Whiplash, and Armed and Dangerous.
