Two biggies here.
Soul Calibur II remains, for me, the peak of the franchise. I felt it took SC1 and just rounded off some of the rougher edges, making a fantastic fighter with pretty good balance at casual level. Played this with friends for months, mained Yunsung... Which, on reflection, was a mistake
Second Life is worth voting for on the distinction that it was the first financially successful online social virtual world. There had been various prior attempts to realise that goal, but none had really taken off; SL made millions from attracting people to invest in virtual land. Yes, it was something of a grift, as they would later discover, but it was very popular for a number of years. -
SC2 got a vote, it's not my favourite entry but it's probably the last one that really nailed things for me
Second was Simpsons Hit and Run, it's not a challenger for the top prize really but it was surprisingly good at the timeComment

Nothing for me there but I threw in a vote for Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy since my mother in law absolutely adores it.
Probably the best game to come out of Eurocom Derby I'll warrant.Comment

Never finished it, but I do like SMT3: Nocturne.
Always struggled to get into any Soul Calibur as much as I did Soul Edge. SVC: Chaos is a weird little game too, and while it has some great things (characters, art) in it that've provided some fun, there's this very drab presentation to it that sucks a lot of life from it.Comment
