Title says it all really, ideally not just a regurgitation of the years top sellers (mention the Sims in it and I will cheerfully murder you all  ).
It would be nice to see some older but still good games in it (for example; fallout anyone?).

I'll rattle it off now.
Half Life 1 + 2,
Deus Ex,
World of Warcraft,
Starcraft,
Command & Conquer : The First Decade,
Civilization 3,
The Elder Scrolls IV : Oblivion,
System Shock 2,
Neverwinter Nights.
They're probaby 10 of the best games from every genre going. Notice how most of them are classics, or were highly influential. That list is not likely to change in the next few years!

Neverwinter Nights.
URGH! Thats neither a classic nor ground breaking. In fact when I played it, it was hideously boring.
And if you want classics/ground breaking, Morrowind should be there, not Oblivion. And possibly Civ 2 (as I got that one more than Civ3). But that's all my opinon.
However a list of 10 games would be good. As voted for by MM readers and forum users?

World of Warcraft,
No. Just no. 
Influential yes, but hardly a must play.

Next few years are promising me Fallout, Deus Ex and KotOR 3 
Too many modern/still in the charts games, where is Xcom/Grim Fandango/Diablo/Homeworld?

Rome Total War perhaps?
And if there were not so many free clones available - Tetris, PacMan and Missile Command.

Rome : Total War? I digress. Going by Drezha's well put point, Shogun : Total War should be the correct game.
Drezha, I think I agree with you. Baldur's Gate is a much better choice. 
EDIT : Basil, it is a must play. Like you've said, you've never played it, so how can you know that it's bad? Yes, it does eat up your life if you let it, but that doesn't mean it's a bad game.

It is only a must play once you start it.....
I never said it was bad, it was more the fact that its a modern game in the current top sellers.

Going by the life span of games, Basil, WoW is a veteran in it's own right. It's about 3-4 years old now. While not being the first MMORPG, it was one of the most accessible and user-friendly games, and is still popular today for its ability to run on low hardware, and for just being a very well written game.
