Probably FFVI.
Probably FFVI.
Final Fantasy X.
Baldur's Gate (I and II). I was hyped for this game beyond anything before or since, and it still exceeded my expectations. I put hundreds of hours into these games back in the day.
So far as favorite JRPG, probably Chrono Trigger.
Legend of Mana, hands down, followed by Secret of Mana and its sequel. After that, CT and FF6 I suppose.
On the PC, Baldur's Gate is a serious contender, and BG2 and Icewind Dale too, but hey, there's WoW, which totally sucked more hours than all other games combined.
And then there is Death
Turn-based combat does not make an RPG. Chess and Magic: the Gathering, which have turn-based combat, are clearly not RPGs, while games like World of Warcraft and Secret of Mana are.
Now that that was settled several posts ago, my answer is clearly Super Mario RPG.

Final Fantasy VII. It;s my favourite game of all time, let alone RPG.
Crisis core, P4, and Disgaea 3
Pretty much any that isn't a strategy-RPG. I'm not fond of those.
Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.
If Demolition Man were remade today
Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
Tomb Raider is not an RPG.
Fallout is, was, and will always be an RPG. A damn fine one. The new shooter elements are unnecessary, but Falout 3/New Vegas can be downright turn-based with the VATS mode. Being turn-based doesn't make a game an RPG, but the mechanics that determine the pace of the turns are a sure sign of an RPG.

FF IX, Xenosaga, P3, and at the top P4. Of course a lot of you probably know this. ;P
Nice try.
FFVII and Fallout New Vegas are my favourite two.
I'm prepared for lots of heckling for my choices of FFVII and TES Oblivion.
