games that sent off a console in style

Resident Evil 4 - Gamecube

Halo:CE - XBOX 
 
OHHHH SNAP!

God of War II, no contest. But many here would say Persona 4.

Conker's Bad Fur Day- One of the last releases on the N64 and still one of the best games ever!

GBA - I was going to say Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, then Final Fantasy VI came to mind so it might have to be that game.

The 32X - Knuckles Chaotix 

Do launch titles for either the Saturn or Dreamcast count as good send-offs?

" Halo:CE - XBOX  OHHHH SNAP! "

Persona 4 and Perfect Dark /Majoras Mask

TURRICAN 2 and/or LAST NINJA 3 on the C-64. The most technologically advanced games ever released on the system comes out just as the venerable machine was being phased out.
 
You kids have no idea what I'm talking about, do you...? ;-)

Can't say that I do...but I'll happily take your word for it. 
 
What about the first Playstation? I can't even think that far back...

Max Payne , PC.

Dammit, I was totally gonna post one for PC...we had the same idea (except I was going to say counterstrike) 
 
Anyway, thats not a console, so it doesn't count for this thread

lol, so i guess if you can't have it, no one can?
also , why is the pc not a console? even the ps3 can run linux .

For the PS2, Persona 4 definetly. It's basicly the last BIG game for the console, while after GoW2 there was still some nice shit released for it.

N64 = Conker's Bad Fur Day.

XBOX - Crusty Demons

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory - Xbox

Dreamcast - Skies of Arcadia
