what is the best RPG you've played?

I'd say Lufia II : Rise of the Sinistrals as that's THE FIRST RPG I ever played :)

Best RPG? Nope, there's not just one.Dark Cloud (Both). For the action RPG, dungeon crawl style of fun.
Mana. Anything Mana. Easily explained.
Dungeon Maker (Both). For the handheld action RPG, dungeon crawl style of fun.
And pretty much whatever turn based RPG is in my hands at the time. I sadly tend to get sidetracked when it comes to them and start new ones all too often though.

cant choose between lufia 2 and final fantasy 7, played them both 2day :)

The first Fallout game is the best role playing experience I ever had, and problably ever will. Seriously, sometimes I think I'm the only who thinks that thinks so. That's problably one of the few games that I'd call "almost flawless" (if it were not for the dumb party A.I., it problably would be). It's not perfect, but damn, it's bloody close to it.

FF6 and Chrono Trigger, which brings me to my next point: The SNES is and probably forever will be the best console for RPGs.

Eternal Eyes.

That's a hard one. I'd have to say the Shin Megami Tensei series as a whole. SMT 1-3 and all it's spinoffs (Persona, Raidou, DDS, etc.) were just amazing for me.

golden sun(awesome 3D effect) and megaman series(nice storyline)

Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy.

Monster Hunter Freedom Unite hands down.Unlike other typical RPGs, you can't grind your way through this game. You have to work your way through battling monsters (while avoiding their attacks) and carving out their parts to build your weapons and armor.

super_pastafari32anyone else likes the old classics like chrono trigger or maybe final fantasy

Chrono trigger and Chrono Cross... by far the best RPG's I've ever played. ;D

oh...and earthbound(snes)...-very long..long..long...storyline!

Counterstrike

well the first RPG i played was legend of legaia on PS1 i guess it was like 9 years ago though i kinda forgot most of it i still remember enjoying it...
