My compiled list of all new non-sequel, non-remake, non-licensed games with a Metacritic score of at least 75. It's not perfect and I may have missed some or added too many. There are exceptions. I included Orange Box for Portal and I included Strong Bad and Penny Arcade even though they have previous "franchises", but I removed all movie and, therefore, Lego games. I'd say there's still plenty of original titles being produced.

Edit: Scratched out a couple. Viva Pinata is based off a franchise... bah, I don't know if that should count :P.

You can add Viva Pinata back in. The saturday morning cartoon was created in conjunction with the game. Each were basically marketing for the other. The game was not based off the cartoon, it's the other way around.
While I'm not sure if even this list is 100% accurate, it does paint a better picture of where the original IPs are.
