Greatest Rpg's Of All Time

a place to describe your list of personal favourites in the rpg{or any subcategory} category, discuss them etc or recommend rpg's current or old.

my personal favourites are

final fantasy 9/crono cross
final fantasy 6/crono trigger
final fantasy 7/ vagrant story/ xenogears
dark cloud 2/shadow hearts covenant
dot hack series
kingdom hearts 1/2
okami/zelda series

add to that the entire XENOSAGA SERIES{specially 3}
SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI NOCTURNE AND the 2 digital devil sagas
shadow hearts 1 and also ROGUE GALAXY.

Phantasy Star especally the 4th one.

Elder scrolls series, especiall 3 and 4
Diablo games, perhaps some of the best selling Rpgs as well
Hellgate london is going to be Ace but its not out yet so meh lol
God of war is a good one, imo the best ps2 game and its sequel

Final Fantasy VI is my favorite.

Chrono Trigger follows, as does some of the other FF games.

Tales of the Abyss definitely deserves to be noted.

A series that is, in my opinion, better than FF, and TotA is the best of the series.

Diablo isn't an RPG any more than Gauntlet was. The term 'RP' is stretched to breaking point on computers as it is- you don't play a role in Final Fantasy at all, it is mroe of an interactive story. KOTOR and Baldur's Gate are closer to the RP title. But regardless, if you call Diablo an RP, then so is... Doom. it just doesn't fit.

BG2 is definitely up there.

Final Fantasy IX.

First RPG I actually got into and finished.

Besides Pokemon. haermm

Xenogears. nuff said.

WoW

Terranigma is my favourite. I really, really enjoyed the Golden Sun series too.

OBLIVION

legend of legaia forever

Final Fantasy IV

I thought the common idea of what an RPG is just involves stats and having to 'level up' or progress the characters power in some way?

I mean you do assume the role of the main character in some final fantasies

as for Diablo you assume the role of some random hero looking to turn the tide of the sin war

but I guess thats why you have the hybrid genres.. action / rpg and so on
