Final Fantasies I-XII (but you probably knew that).
I don't think this really needs an explanation.
Seiken Densetsu II (Secret of Mana) and III. (SNES, III only via emulation)
Great music, pretty graphics and sounds, and nice action-RPG gameplay.
Star Ocean: Fantastic Space Oddyssey (only via emulation), Star Ocean: The Second Story (PS1), and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (PS2).
All have relatively action-packed battle systems and replay value.
Tales of Phantasia (GBA), Tales of Symphonia (GBC), and Tales of the Abyss (PS2), and pretty much any other Tales game you can get your hands on.
Same as Star Ocean.
I'm sure I can think of more later.
Chrono Trigger / Chrono Cross
Probly the best RPGs without a Final infront of them I can think of.
Chrono Trigger anyone can enjoy, Chrono Cross has a somewhat more involved battle system (not all that complicated but I have heard some people complain), and the plot can be very difficult to follow later in the game (+ for me, - for some)
Dragon quest VIII
Threads of Fate is a pretty Fun action-RPG, but it's a bit short and you can also go with Arc the Lad Twilight of the Spirits. It has a great battle sytem in my opinion and a good story. It can't touch a FF, but it's still a fun game.
Yellow Winged Angel
Grandia
Dark Cloud 2/Chronicle
Phantasy Star II, IV
Valkyrie Profile ( If you can afford it )
Suikoden I - V.
The Xenosaga trilogy
Phantasy Star Universe, it's the best video game ever made!
-Grandia Series - The first one is probably one of my favorite RPG's ever.
-Tales Series - Destiny,Eternia, Symphonia, Legendia, Abyss - All great RPG's that you shouldn't miss.
- Shadow Hearts Series - I don't own these yet, but I played all of them at my buddies house and they're just great games.
-Xenogears - If you don't have it, buy it now.
-Dragon Quest 8 - Old school rpg, with a great story and characters.
-Breath of Fire 3,4,5 - The fifth game in the series is a bit on the strange side, but 3 and 4 are great games.
-Skies of Arcadia - If you have a DC or Gamecube, buy this game, seriously buy it, I'm not kidding, go out right now and buy it.
-Digital Devil Saga - A great RPG with a unique battle system.
-Devil Summoner - If you play Digital Devil Saga and like it, don't miss out on this game.
Edit: Almost forgot: Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete and Lunar 2: Eternal Blue - 2D Rpg's don't get much better.

Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2 - If you decide to buy make sure you pick #1 first. The second is a straight continuation.
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: It was just released in the states.
golden sun and golden sun the lost age for the GBA very good games
THE JACKEL
add me, PSN: ljkkjlcm9
try Super Robot Wars 3 (SNES) or Super Robot Taisen Original Generation (GBA). SRW3 English patch can be found at Aeon Genesis site, google is your friend.
SRWs are strategy RPGs with good storyline and lots of magic to use just like FFs. Battles are turn-based.
-Grandia series (God knows the first one is impossible to find though...)
-Legend of Dragoon
-.Hack series
-Shadow Hearts Series
