I was thinking about all the games I've missed out on by only buying nintendo systems. My plan is to play as many of the great games on other systems.
So far I have made this list of games I should play
Playstation
Final Fantasy 7
PS2
Ico
Shadow of the colossos
Rez
Okami
God hand
God of war 1+2
Saturn
Guardian heroes
Radiant silvergun
nights
Dreamcast
Shenmue 1+2
X360
Bioshock
Dead Rising
half life 2 (orange box)
I only want to play the games that I won't have experienced on nintendo systems.
Also I'm based in the U.k. if that helps.
So please suggest away.

Final Fantasy Tactics
Resident Evil 1-3 (get the Gamecube remake of 1)
Vagrant Story
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Sam and Max Hit the Road
Planescape: Torment
Xbox:
Call of Cluthulu (however it's spelled)
Jet Grind Radio
Power Stone 1 (or 2 if you have four people to play with)
Metal Gear Solid (PS2)
Metal Gear Solid 2 (PS2)
Metal Gear Solid 3 (PS2)
Zone of the Enders the second runner!! (PS2 and one of my favorite games to date)
also most of the others previously mentioned are really awesome too. Like Final Fantasy Tactics. I must have logged a hundred hours in that game.
MediEvil
PS2:
Metal Gear Solid 2 (and 3)
You could also give the PS1 Crash Bandicoot games a try, at least 1 and 2.
edit: beated to MGS2 and 3
Do... Re... Mi... So... Fa.... Do... Re.... Do...
Forget it...
these ones too
Resident Evils were already out for nintendo right?
Too many to mention, but a few highlights.
Sonic the Hedgehog 1-3+Knuckles and CD
Shining force 1-2 and CD
Streets of Rage
Gunstar Heroes.
Phantasy Star series.
Saturn
(You mentioned some of the best)
Dragon Force
Panzer Dragoon series.
Dreamcast
A bit less important now, as most of the games were ported around to various other systems... but many of them still have the Dreamcast version as the superior looking/playing one. There are still a number of smaller puzzle games and the like that are a blast as well. It was one of my fave systems ever, but it's becoming increasingly irrelevant as time goes on to at least play the games.
PSX/PS2
I don't think it's even worth it to try and list out all the games here. There are just so many across so many genre's. You hit a couple of the better titles however.
Xbox/360
Not as expansive as the PSX/PS2 library, but still formidable, especially now with the live arcade. A few of the bigger hitters (and some personal preference)
Halo series of course.
Ninja Gaiden
Fable
Morrowind/Oblivion (if have not played on pc).
Gears of War
Crackdown
Jet Set Radio Future
Resident Evil series
Onimusha series
Final Fantasy games(Not 10-2 for the love of God don't touch it)
Tekken might be worth getting as well.
I hear all kinds of awesome about this game but it was never realised in the uk :x
they just released a newly translated version for the PSP.
Panzer Dragoon
Lunar I, II
Gunstar Heroes
Shining Force
Vay
Wild Arms
Suikoden
Vandal Hearts
Bonk
Silent Hill 2 (PS2) (my favorite)
Silent Hill 3 (PS2)
silent hill 4 was kind of meh imo.
For some real non-Nintendo fun, you should play yourself some Phantasy Star II for the Genesis, or maybe some Golden Axe
Betrayal at Krondor/Betrayal in Antara
Daggerfall/Morrowind/Oblivion
Disciples II
Baldur's Gate II/Throne of Bhaal
Planescape: Torment
System Shock 2
Tron 2.0
X-Com: Enemy Unknown
GEN:
Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday
Shining in the Darkness
Phantasy Star II
Might and Magic II: Gates to Antother World
PSX:
FF VII
ChronoCross
Xenogears
FF Tactics
Bushido Blade (PS1) (Never liked the 2nd, but the 1st is near-perfect)
Megaman Legends series (PS1)
Spiro the Dragon series (PS1) (Rather similar to the Crash Bandicoot series. Bit easier though.)
Are you interested in computer games at all?
