    Vagrant Story is up there, too. It has perhaps the greatest story told in an RPG ever.

    Diablo 2 if you count that as an RPG - no other game has been played so much by me that I wore out the mouse!

    It depends on the definition of "RPG" you're using.


    On the one hand I'd have to go with Ocarina of Time. On the other I'd say Skies of Arcadia.

    This thread is full of noobs >_<

    It was shown in last month's issue of Scientific Proof magazine that Planescape: Torment is by far the greatest RPG of all time.

    FFVI, SO2, Suikoden II, and Secret of Mana.

    This is disturbing on so many levels.

    Tough choice, I would have to say Star Wars KoTOR, or XenoGears. Ask me to chose between the two and I just can't do it. KoTOR:TSL would have made it in but I like the games I play to be, you know; Finished.

    FF X for me. It got me interested in the genre, and Auron is awesome.

    Noob question: Does FTW mean "Fuck the World" or "For the Win"?
