Before any fanboy jumps to crysis, uncharted, killzone,Halo Reach, I would like to mention that your question is very complex. Graphics can be viewed from technical, artistic and optimization standpoints. And there will be one/mutiple winner(s) if we view from one standpoint. It is impossible to pick up a single winner.

If it we view from technical standpoint, I would like to say Crysis, GTA 4(for it's scale), GranTurismo 5, Unchrated 1,2, Lost Planet, etc.

On artistic standpoint Prince of Persia(2008), Flower(PSN), Okami(Wii).

On optimization standpoint Uncharted 1,2, God of War, Resident Evil 5

Uncharted 1. I don't think so. Must add Killzone 2 and God of War 3 to the list.

I think Dirt 2 showed off some great graphics and just cause 2 being just 4gb in size had gr8 graphics too.

For some reason I loved the modern tech stuff of DOOM III. Though I never finished it.

If I had to pick only one, then I would say Uncharted 2. I used to think it was Crysis earlier, but after playing this game, my perspective changed a lot. The scale on which it is rendered is just outstanding.

Others would include:
God of War III
Killzone 2
Red Dead Redemption
Crysis
Gears of War

Crytek always set benchmarks in Graphics!

err..its ubisoft who developed FarCry 2 using DUNIA engine, a heavily modified(around 97%) version of cryEngine 2...
Great game though!

Patapon and Locoroco has best graphics.. (artistically)

God Of War 3, Heavy Rain and Uncharted also have good graphics

and Mafia 2 has okey okey graphics (considering the scale)

Imagine they have a family tree for it.

Though guys, apart from looks, which game has the most interactive environment. I found BC2 quite close to Warhead in terms on interaction.

Crysis, Far Cry 2 and Just Cause 2 are pretty good as far as graphics go, but I'd like to give a special mention to some other games:

1) Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood

This engine has jaw-dropping textures and bump mapping, and it runs really good on even lower end hardware. IMO, it is the number 1 candidate for most efficient graphics engine.

Check out the screenshots:

*img406.imageshack.us/img406/1179/coj2d.jpg

2) Tomb Raider: Underworld

Good textures, smooth lighting, great shaders. What else is to say? :)

*compresadeadamantium.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/tomb-raider-underworld-20080130053333905.jpg

Other "good" games in terms of artistic direction are Darksiders, Alpha Protocol, Neverwinter Nights 2, the Witcher, etc. but they aren't pure eye candy like these games are :D

MGS4 has great graphics and truly was a masterpiece. Elder scrolls 4 oblivion pioneered procedural rendering and was the best in its time.

Games which standardized 3D Graphics & technology:
1. NFS
2. UT
3. Stalker
4. Quake (also for DOOM)
5. COD
and 6. POP

It is quite obvious that the latest games will pack better techniques and 3D rendering algorithms. So, all the latest installments of the above stated series will come in ranks! :)
