Probably around FFX, that's the last one I can remember being excited about.
I also think it comes with getting older and just having less time to play games. I more and more prefer short games and games that total take less than 10 hours to complete. It's incredibly rare that I sit with a game longer than that and if it's a game I can't sit and play for less than an hour at a time I'm probably not going to bother.
-edit-
And I realize the last three games on my 360 card go against the above. Mass Effect is one the few exceptions and Deadly Premonition just had me curious. :-p
