Digital Devil Saga - Great story so far and I love the setting. The dungeons are also really unique and interesting in their design, which is nice when most people think of the franchise having boring maze-like designs since most judge them on the Persona series. The puzzle filled Princess Castle was really unique and I really loved the one on the cruise ship where you have to plant bombs. Hell, even the Sewer Dungeon has proven to be not nearly as frustrating as though dungeons tend to be.
Shin Megami Tensei - This game is surprisingly addicting. Despite my praise for the game above, I constantly want to get back to this game most of the time despite the fact DDS has more to offer. The cast is good and the game is littered with bizarre scenarios that make a story about demons and gods battling it out in a post-nuclear war world come across way less drab. Hell even the Chaos and Law heroes are incredibly likable, which makes it obvious now why so many future versions of the Law and Chaos heroes take their cues from them. The dialogue option for battle in this game is also incredibly useful, getting money and magentite is a pain through normal battles and only human enemies tend to really carry cash but using dialogue to get demons to fork over them is not only often easier, but you tend to get 10x more by doing so. This is especially important cause the game tends to love throwing waves of really difficult enemies at you who give you practically nothing for beating them, so negotiations tend to help you out way more.
Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light - I'm digging the game's plot basically being a classic FF Heroes of Light tale and kind of turning it on its head. The characters are obnoxious at first but all grow into likable people before long. Also the games focus on team building as opposed to character building is a real nice change of pace, not to mention this might be one of the rare RPGs where mages really are better than melee classes.
