1) World of Warcraft - Spent over 5 years of my life on this game, and over 1 year of in-game time. The original and its expansion The Burning Crusade was magical. I still remember the things I have done and achieved in that game.
2) Skies of Arcadia - If you want the feeling of adventure, this is the game for you.
3) Ogre Battle 64 - Best SRPG, bar-none. No other rpg plays like this. Characters and story are soooo rich, and has everything. EVERYTHING (3 POINTER!!!)
4) Chrono Trigger - If you don't know what this game is already then you are not in the right thread
5) Chrono Cross - Best music of any game. Nothing comes close. Crazy graphics and setting. And it slightly bests the original.
6) Phantasy Star 4 - Amazing Story, setting, and Music. Gameplay slightly outdated, but the whole experience was great.
7) Phantasy Star Online - My first Online RPG, wow what an experience. This was the game I bought a Dreamcast for. I even bought the Keyboard.
8) Dragon Quest 5 - Best Dragon Quest game ever. I had already played 3, and 7, and 9, and 8 at that point. Within the first 2 hours I already knew it will be better than the rest.
9) Final Fantasy 12 - Best gameplay of any Final Fantasy. Highly underrated. The story is confusing, but man the world they built was crazy. Very hard to pinpoint a favorite Final Fantasy, but I'm going with this.
10) Paper Mario 64 - Who knew Mario can carry an RPG. Well people who played SMRPG said so, but I didnt like that game. This is the game to get. TTYD does not compare.
Honorable Mentions
11) Final Fantasy 9 - Bringing FF back to its roots. Brought humor back to the game. Dagger is awesome character, and the love story wasnt forced.
12) Pokemon Red/Blue - My first RPG ever. Didn't know what an RPG was either, I just bought it. Put in over 200hours and caught all 150 Pokemon legitimately on my own with a 2nd copy I borrowed from a friend.
13) Zelda: Link's Awakening DX - Ending Made me cry. I was in the 7th grade at the time.
14) Panzer Dragoon Saga - No other RPG plays like this. Great story and lore. Plus Dragons are the focus on the story. DRAGONS!!!!
15) Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together - Best grid style SRPG. Good story, but you must pay close attention.
15) Dragon Warrior/Quest 3 - My first Dragon Quest on the GBC. Made me a fan of the series.
17) Dragon Warrior 7 - Spent 120hours and still had alot to do. Really good stuff here.
18) Illusions of Gaia - Stories were based on stories we have in real life. Hard to explain why this game was so awesome, but the world they built and story was unique. Magical expeirence.
19) Final Fantasy 8 - Sorry Final Fantasy 7, I choose this game over you.
20) Final Fantasy 6 - Best classic Final Fantasy. One of the best villians out there. Still holds up today. I rather this get remade than FF7.
