Lots of great games have been made. My favorites include:

Chrono Trigger
StarCraft
Diablo II
X-COM II
Doom
Half-Life
Thief series
Soul Reaver series
Jedi Knight series (there's nothing like using the force and slashing stormtroopers with a lightsaber!)

I'd say the most innovative game I've ever played in terms of unique gameplay was Thief. To my knowledge it was the first game to make use of sound and lighting as part of the gameplay, instead of just decoration/aesthetics. I'm not even sure if any games since then have used sound like that, or even lighting.

Pac-man is always at the top of my list.

I also like Total Annihilation, Starcraft, the Zelda series, Maniac Mansion, The Oregon Trail, Quake 3 Arena, Darwinia, Dark Horizons: Lore, many games from Spiderweb Software (Geneforge and Avernum series), Penguin Racer (like Tux Racer, only actively supported), Nethack, Super Smash Bros, DROD, Professor Fizzwizzle, Gish...There's a lot of games, and I need to make more time to play them. B-)

Besides the usual suspects like Zelda and Super Mario there's a fine indie game that i fell in love with - DROD. A game full of logical puzzles and brilliant level design.
Check out the demo version:
Caravel Games - DROD: King Dugan's Dungeon
