1) Fallout 2
It's just so great game, high replaying, good story, very high freedom of choice, funny. The list can be continued almost forever.

2)BG II, SoA - ToB
Great game, good story, characters are very personals (which can be seem especially in dialogies between your party members), lot's of things to do.

3) FF7
THe very first FF game I've played, and I liked it. Not sure exactly what made it so good, but it just is

I would, but you wouldn't pay me.

Mine... probably KotOR.

3: Final Fantasy VII - Involving story, great gameplay, and the most badass computer game villian ever!

2: Baldur's Gate II: SoA - First foray into a fantasy setting, elves, orcs, wizards, the lot! Loved how to develop your character (beginning with BGI). Still need to finish ToB tho.

1: Planescape: Torment - For proving to me that intelligence, charm, wit and sheer force of will can carry you through a game without having to kill anything and everything that moves. The interactions in this vivid world make life seem dull in comparison. And the story caused me many hours of sleep deficit till I had finished it. "I shall wait for you in death halls, my love!"

Really wanna play the Fallout series. Seems an interesting setting, and they get a lot of love on these forums. Modern games can rarely hold a candle to the stories told by the games of old.

My top RPG's ever are in order:

1: KOTOR 1, just plainly amazing and oh boy it has the best plot twist in RPG history, one that i didn't even take in at first.
2: Neverwinter Nights, a huge game in all aspects and fun to play, but hard to get into, but mass loads of content.
3: KOTOR 2, not as good as first one, but good story again, the ability to train up new jedi from npc's.
4: Fable:TLC, great game, looks amazing on my new graphics card, great gameplay, but damn annoying in places, and stupid (stupid blocking creatures)

i could only think of 4 RPG's i've played in full, but overall no games i've ever played will ever compare with KOTOR 1 it is just too good and fun.

Isn't that rated 'M'? Which would make you ~12 now? Heck I barely let my 7 & almost-9 year old play T games ...

Puts things in perspective - my first RPG of the 'modern era' was Diablo, which my wife bought me for Christmas '96 ... I was 30.

Talking

1.FF7- Sephiroth is just to cool
2.Chrono Cross- awesome story, I have yet to try Chrono Trigger
3.Vagrant Story- simply but sweet also nice story
4.Morrowind- you get to do what ever you want!!!armor and weapons are cool too
5.KotOR-you get to be a jedi in an rpg environment....nuffsaid
6.Castlevania Symphony of the night-(I thinks its rpg)Alucard......need I go on?
I love all of these games, not always in that order though.
Is Monster Hunter an RPG? If so then put it up there too. I love the weapons and Armor you could make.

I can't believe none of you guys have mentioned the Zelda series, especially Ocarina of Time. In my opinion, the best RPG (Adventure) ever. Fable sucked.

Warcraft (one) was the first game I ever really played on the PC, so it's pretty special to me. But then again, so is Diablo...
Have to say Final Fantasy 7 is, like, the best. :P
I loved Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights as well.
Just beat Fable and I want to play it again, so I'll give it some props for that.

I agree Fable sucked and, in everyone else's defense, I never really considered Ocarina of Time as an RPG, rather as an adventure game...
It is amazing, though, and one of my favorite overall games ever.
