(These are all PS3 titles.)

I thought GTA V could never live up to the hype, and was prepared to be slightly disappointed. Instead, Rockstar appears to have improved on every aspect of the GTA experience, removing several things that hurt GTA IV.

Edited to add: After I posted this I discovered that GTA V has a glitch that makes it impossible to keep cars, even the ones you paid for, and even after spending tens of thousands to upgrade them. It's still an okay game, just like GTA IV and all the other flawed GTA games. But it most definitely did NOT live up to the hype.

2nd edit: It's been a few days, and I have to say this is the most fun I've ever had on this console. I'm just not trying to upgrade or keep any vehicles (which improves the game in one way - by giving it a quicker pace). Hopefully they'll fix it and the game will be even better. Ohio Joe gave me this link to "Rockstar working on GTA 5 fix for vanishing vehicles" in another thread:

Before that: Call of Duty - Modern Warfare 3 (good, but not nearly as good as 1 or 2).

Before that: Star Trek (I was warned, but I didn't listen).

Before that: Uncharted 3 (WTF was that???!!! ... couldn't finish it. Nice graphics, but my god, I could have more fun with a bowl of dry Cheerios).

Before that: The Last of Us (outstanding).

Before that: Saints Row 3 (I don't know why I didn't finish this. It's better than 2, and I played the hell out of that one. For some reason, I just didn't care what happened next in SR 3).
