Final Fantasy VI / VII / & Xenogears
Shining Force
KotOR I & II
Dragon Force
Tales of Xillia 1 (and possibly 2, we're seeing right now. But 1 was SO fun, and getting so close to that perfect "RPG with fighting game encounters" I've always always wanted so badly, and the closest I'd ever came to it was Legend of Legaia~)

And finally, Divinity: Original Sin. Any fan of CRPGs should look into this recent beauty. It scratches that Balud'rs Gate / Planescape itch pretty good. Excellent tactical battle system. And even an extremely well done co-op play. It's so close to the perfect experience for a CRPG. Here's hoping they can afford to make a sequel which may come even closer to perfection
