The question is: Do you have a PS3? if you don't have one i can recommend some multiplatform titles...

According to your preferences:

RPGs: Mass Effect, Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon (the last two i recomeend you play one of them rented, then if you like it, buy it, and if you don't, buy the other one (i know only a few people that like both BD and LO, it's easier finding people that like one of them)...

TPS: Gears of War, Gears of War 2

FPS: Without online, i can't recommend you Left4Dead and Halo 3, of course, split screen multiplayer is great also...

Racing: Forza 2 (3 is coming so she can wait for that or have both)

For your son: Viva Piñata, Banjo Kazooie.

Later i tell you about the multiplatform if you don't have a PS3...

 

Thanks and... no, I don't have a PS3

Ok, then i can recommend:

TPS: Resident Evil 5 (it's more a TPS than a survival-horror action game, but you like both so you're covered either way)

FPS:

-Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (seriously, it's that good, Activision had to separate this title from the CoD Franchise and made it a completely separated franchise, Modern Warfare 2 comes out this fall)
-The Orange Box, its a pack with Half-Life 2 original + Episode 1 and 2, Team Fortress 2 and Portal (I got it thinking in Half-Life Episode 2 because i played the original and Ep 1 already, but the game that got to me was Portal, its an amazing first-person action/puzzle, look at the previews on Youtube, it's really good)
-Bioshock: Really, the game has a cool storyline, a great experience and if you're into graphics look at the water in this game...

RPGs:

-The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Bethesda Softworks is a long time RPG developer, their games started on PC, and they added consoles when they became powerful and profitable enough, and this is a great example of their amazing work)
-Fallout 3 (The previous main titles you're going to find them only on PC, but this title is completely different from the previous ones, because Bethesda bought the Fallout IP once Black Isle was shut down when Interplay filed bankrupcy, and they made the whole game from scratch)...
-I forgot about Fable II, this is a game that you and your wife can enjoy together if she likes it (a lot of women like this title)...

Racing:

-Midnight Club: Los Angeles.
-Burnout Paradise, good combination of both racing and sandbox genre...
-Need for Speed Undercover (the game has enough racing action to get it, just don't pay too much attention to the cutscenes)
