Tie between Med 1 and S2 for me. I dunno.. depending on how post-launch plays out? S2 might take the lead, but right now its too early to tell.
MTW. Despite S2TW being a very good game (ignoring the CTDs), doesn't have the same atmosphere and I already got slightly bored of a few factions.
Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
Believe it or not, I was quite fond of M2TW. Now I think I am enjoying S2TW far more.
Silence is beautiful
Rome TW was epic in it's day, and with mods like 'Roma Surrectum 2' it still stands up.
Shogun 2 is superb though, and certainly the best of the recent TW releases.
I've played all the TW's and S2 is by far my favourite! I am blown away by it. CA have really done a fantastic job this time.
I was planning on not getting any more after Empire - thought that's enough for me. But after reading the favourable impressions by some members of this forum I thought what the hell and bought it. I certainly don't regret it.
It's not just the AI improvment that I love (although that is a big part of it - like the OP said, have to think about my moves again), but the whole feel of the game - the atmosphere. It's the small details, like when my Daimyo went to another province away from his capital, a message popped up to say that the peasants of that province were impressed by him and will work extra hard for the next few seasons! Or the dilemmas and decisions that you have to make from time to time. I like the progression of characters being a choice of different paths too.
The diplomacy is working really well too - had enemies begging me for peace which is something I don't remember from the other games at all. When you've defeated them in a crucial battle, they might now accept being your vassal.
Well, it certainly will keep me entertained for a long while to come, that's for sure.
