Objective answers are probably Super Mario Bros, Doom, Goldeneye, Mario 64, GTA3, WoW, or Metal Gear Solid. All of them defined their genres in incredible ways and unquestionably raised the bar.

Halo and Minecraft were revolutionary too, I guess. But they mostly caused awful trends by copycats trying to recapture the magic those games had by copying the gimmicks without capturing the actual souls of the game and what made them so good. Specifically, Halo started the trend of regenerating health and very limited weapon inventory, and Minecraft is the reason every goddamn game under the sun has a tacked-on and completely unnecessary crafting/breakable item mechanic. I'm not criticizing those two games. I'm criticizing all the awful trend followers that failed to understand what actually mattered about them and what made them what they are.
