and now I'm going to try not to get laughed out of here.
Why would you be laughed at? Those are all great games. I'd put Phantasy Star II ahead of IV but both are great nonetheless. But an RPG that I think topples both on the Megadrive was Shadowrun, one of the best 16-bit RPG's in my opinion. Just make sure never to touch its ugly twin on the SNES, which was a horrible game ( shame people only remember that one ) The Megadrive didnt have alot of RPG's but the ones it had were pretty special.

Here are a few more suggestions off the top of my head.....

Dark Chronicle ( Dark Cloud 2 if your in the states )
Grandia
Xenogears ( leave all that Xenosaga crap alone )
Terranigma
Illusion of Gaia
Record of Lodoss War
Alundra
