1. Super Mario RPG :thumbsup:

 

2. Star Ocean 2 :D

 

3. Star Ocean 3 :)

 

4. FF8 :XD:

 

5. FF9 :

The Mana series(Mainly Legend of Mana)

 

Planescape:Torment

 

KOTOR

 

Chrono Trigger

 

Pokemon(Its a well made game despite all of the other crap that came with it (Plus I have to say that I'm pretty suprised the whole Pokemon obsession is still going strong even after all these years of making the same game over and over again))

 

Pokemon owns. 8-)

In order:

 

 

 

1. Wyvern

 

2. The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion GOTY

 

3. The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind GOTY

 

4. Fable: Lost Chapters

 

5. KOTOR series

KOTOR

 

Paper Mario

 

Fable:TLC

 

Morrowind

 

Chrono Trigger

I'd say Zelda's adventure, not an RPG. I absolutely loved Diablo 2, but not because of RPG factors, so I'm not listing that one either. Same goes for Dungeon Siege 2.

 

 

 

As for me, in no particular order, simply because I cannot:

 

 

 

- Lufia 2 (SNES)

 

- Chrono Trigger (SNES)

 

- Final Fantasy VI (SNES)

 

- Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn (PC)

 

- Golden Sun: The Lost Age (GBA)

 

 

 

Honorable mention for Super Mario RPG and Paper Mario: TTYD :

I guess BioShock counts as a shooter and not an RPG, seeing how nobody mentioned it.

 

 

 

For meh,

 

1) Knights of the Old Republic

 

2) Oblivion

 

3) Jade Empire

 

4) Mass Effect

 

5) Pokemon Yellow

The legend of zelda series is classed in the genre - Adventure.

 

Pokemon may have many rpg elements, but I would not class it as one as the games themselves have very little storyline to them and thus end up being classed in the same genre as the LoZ series.

 

 

 

lets see:

 

 

 

1. Final Fantasy VI- for its insane villain Kefka Palazzo, well-developed characters out of any game thus far in the industry, and for it being the only game in the Super Nintendo line to produce movie-like script as well as with the graphics being some of the highest there was at the time. This game also produced rumors that Squaresoft at the time was making a Final Fantasy movie. Its musical score is also noted as Nobuo Uematsu's best work.

 

 

 

next in the line-up is.

 

 

 

2. Final Fantasy I - although many games before this one had produced character classes this one in particular further refined them where most if not all Rpgs follow this model now. This would have been the last game that Squaresoft produced had it not thrived. Also in parallel it would have been the head producers last game as well.

 

 

 

Upcoming next would-be

 

 

 

3. Lufia II - for its magnificently done 99 floor dungeon which many games have tried to emulate over the years. such things that the dungeon in this game that made it so challenging was that a person is literally forced to know the weaknesses of each and every monster. Another thing is that a person was forced to make decisions on what weapons and armor would go on which character. Healing items as well as spells were scarce which further added to the challenge. The final thing about this dungeon was the ultimate goal of collecting all of the Iris treasures which could either be done in one go or be done over the course of ones entire life due to the sheer randomness.

 

 

 

I wonder who will be next in our line-up......

 

 

 

4. Final fantasy VII - its on many a list, but few note that this particular game is what brought video-games mainstream. though some us do like to nitpick at some of its in adequcies such as this line from the game "This guy are sick." The plotline in this game is also one of the best out there with the character cloud being torn between his illusions of the stories his friend Zack told him,which lead us to believe that Cloud falls for Aeris whom later dies, and his real meories which have been overtaken by them.

 

 

 

 

 

Although many of tthe games fans will flame me for this Sephiroth is but a failed attempt at bringing an insane villain like Kefka back.

 

 

 

Last but not least we bring to the floor....*drum roll*

 

 

 

5. Legend of Legaia - well-written storyline with alot of character interaction as well as having alot of back-story to the main storyline. The difficulty stays constant no matter the level as long as the "point card" is not used. it also has an unique way to gain spells by using Holy seru known as "Ra-seru". The best spells in the game can only be gotten after a certain point in the game as well as a secret one, the end all be all spell in the game, which is only attainable at lvl99 with all characters. there is one extra boss which is by no means a joke, neither is the main storyline final boss. Unfortunately this games successor fell flat on its face by not continuing the storyline of the original,they couldn't anyway.

 

 

 

 

 

well this wraps up why chose these games.

pokemon, fable, oblivion, KOTOR (both), mass effect, dungeon siege and jade empire are all RPGs i can remember for now.

FF XII

 

Oblivion

 

Ocarina of Time (it's an RPG in my book)
