In terms of Turn Base, Chrono Trigger, if you haven't played it already.

Other then obvious choices (Final Fantasy, Mass Effect, Fallout ect) the 3 solid RPGs that come to my mind are:

Lost Odyssey - this was the original plot line that was going to be final fantasy 12 (before Sakaguchi left square)

Skies of Arcadia - the best RPG most people have never heard of, a throw back to true old school RPGs, if you can find a copy of this gem its worth the money

Jade Empire - made by the same guys who made the first Knights of the Old Republic game, definitely worth the 10-15 bucks off of Xbox live, or steam.

Thief: The Dark Project(Gold) - This and Metal Gear defined the stealth genre. Thief in a first person setting.
Thief 2: The Metal Age
T2X - 12ish long Fan Mission with cutscenes and voice acting. Very well done.
System Shock 2 - Uses Thief 1 engine, first person RPG set on a space station with a Rogue AI.

Very old games and the engines look quite dated. But the gameplay.. oh man.

loved it, since then i look always for a dwarf with a flame throwe in any game. Actually, i bought 2 copies of it as due to reasons unknown my 1st copy landed under my school backpack, 10 kilo of books isn't safe for any disk i can tell ya

Seconded. Some of the best story i've seen was in that game, not to mention the sweet-ass music.

WEll i would like to thank everyone except the poster just above me. For giving me some serious answers. I think i can already get to look at a couple of games, might be even a few in my wardrobe already. Anyhow keep em coming incase i finish some up early.

Also just found divinity 2 in my closet, forgot it was there. Cannot recall if i ever compelted it

To be fair, Thief is not an RPG. But it's awesome non-the-less <_<. System Shock 2 is an actual RPG though.

Oblivion hands down, best RPG. There are also shitloads of mods, and the amount of stuff you can do in that game is just wow...

I have always been partial to the Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights series by Bioware

Played BG2+ToB and Icewind dale2 recently , they were great . Even though BG2 in very VERY old it's still great , from my point of view BG2 was the best RPG ever released , compared to what it did for the time when it was released .
