Forza Motorsport 3, and to an extent 4. With Gran Turismo 5 being the "brand name" in sim racers, and myself being a huge car nut, I find myself defending Forza Motorsport 3 a lot. The fact of the matter is Forza Motorsport 3 is the best racing sim. Compared to what was released before it, Forza 3 was huge. It had the most HD cars of any racing game, the most advanced physics, in car camera's on all cars, a really great variety of cars, and every car in the game was a real car. No knock off Ferrarri's or Porsches because Turn 10 couldn't get the licence.

Gran Turismo 5 was a great game, but it wasn't supperior to Forza Motorsport 3, at least not outside to world of Japanese cars, and this was a shame because it did release a year later and had such a long development cycle. Forza Motorsport 4 also wasn't that huge of an upgrade over FM3, and lost Porsche (initially, but a year later you got a half filled Porsche roster at a premium). So although GT5 and FM4 are better sims then Forza Motorsport 3, for the time FM3 was the best sim by far, and still is a better game to GT5 and FM4.

Lost Odyssey - it's an under-rated JRPG. Out of all the JRPG's this gen, this game is by far the best, much much better then Final Fantasy XIII with its automatic battles, better then XenoBlade with its hours of travel time with nothing happening, and I would even argue it's better then Valkyria Chronicles.

Gran Turismo (psp) - The game serves a purpose. It might lack a career mode, a weird car buying system which only lets you buy some cars on specific dates, and the graphics might not be anything special, but hey with 800 cars or so and a good physics simulator, this game serves its purpose. It's Gran Turismo on the go, and just racing to collect cars is fun enough.

Gears of War - Maybe, I don't really see this game getting attacked that much, and after 3 (which concluded the primary story arch), I don't care for the genre anymore, but I think I would defend Gears of War 1 & 2 if they were attacked.

The Last Story - People don't really attack it, as much as they don't care for it, but it's a great game which I always include in best RPG arguements and see people try to ignore.

Too Human, Vanquish, Fire Emblem series, Front Mission series, Infinite Undiscovery, I dunno what else. Most of these games are just niche games which people ignore, and they don't really get attacked, people just like to ignore them on lists and such and when I mention them, the just say they aren't important.
