The Mass Effect series, specifically Mass Effect 2. The atmosphere, the scale, the characters. It's the kind of thing where a AAA budget really bring to life things that AA or indie would have had to cut down.
Fallout 4. I have a lot of problems with the story, worldbuilding, and endless minor nitpicky complaints about this game. However it is an amazing accomplishment and when it does something right, it does it very right. The game is the foundation of mods that make it amazing, and while the game didn't create the mods, they wouldn't exist without the game. To me Fallout 4 is "I played this game for 800 hours and there's nothing to do!" kind of complaining.
DOOM (2016). Wow. What a game. It took the mantle of the most iconic FPS in history and made it's mark. DOOM (2016) is to the original DOOM what Fury Road is to Road Warrior. It distilled what everybody liked and remembered (or thought they remembered) from the original and pumped it up to 11 with insane confidence.
