My favourites are.

1. The legend of Zelda.
2. Kingdom Hearts.
3. Final Fantasy.

[Hi no Seijin]

I'd have to say Wild Arms, the Zelda series, and Fire Emblem:  The Sacred Stones.

[Mysterious F.]

Zelda Series
Yu Yu Hakusho: Tournament Tactics (Gameboy)

I'd have to say Wild Arms, the Zelda series, and Fire Emblem:  The Sacred Stones.

I was going to get Wild Arms, but they didn't have it, so I got the Eragon game, and its fun.

Sly Cooper and Ratchet and Clank aren't RPG's.  They're platformers.

My favorite RPG's are Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, and probably a tie between Fire Emblem and Lunar.

[MasterKeyX]

RPGs, huh? my favorite type of gaming. I have many favorites. I'll list them for ya'll:

1-Legend of Zelda games
2-Kingdom Hearts games
3-Ratchet and Clank games
4-Jak games
5-Certain Mario games

Can't resist the great RPG!

I told you they were rare.  Your best bet is probably the Internet.

A couple of games some of you mentioned are NOT rpg's. The Legend Of Zelda for instance is an action-adventure.

Tough choice. I like the Mario RPG's, Fire Emblem, Skies Of Arcadia (Legends), Golden Sun, Breath Of Fire 1. And I just adore Vampire: The Masquerade Redemption and Bloodlines (R.I.P Old World Of Darkness. May the new one burn). Currently playing Gothic 2, which too is awesome.

Well I do not consider the Zelda games (as well as others people listed like the Jak series) as RPGs but there are only 3 series I really like. First, of course, is the Final Fantasy games, those are true RPGs and some of the best games ever (FFIII, FFIV, FFV, FFVI especially). Second is the Chrono series, although Chrono Cross was not that good, Chrono Trigger was fantastic. Last is the Dragon Warrior/Quest series which is all around great.

[Hi no Seijin]

Well, Zelda has alway been a genre onto itself, but it is somewhat like an RPG.  You have the dungeon and the dungeon item, which does give Link new skills.  Isn't that what an RPG essentially is?

[LadyNintendo]

No. RPG's SHOULD be about being who/whatever you want (choosing your own character or at least deciding how your character's path will be). Somehow, that got intertwined with "levels", which has become the basics of RPG's (as videogame). Now some (japanese) RPG's almost solely rely on levels, but the aspect of choosing your character's/characters' path never has fully dissappeared, mainly thanks to having multiple individuals to take care of. And no, dungeons are not an essential part of RPG's. I could name many who do not have dungeons.

1. The Legend Of Zelda does not know levels.
2. The Legend Of Zelda has absolutely nothing that forces you to make a choice between two desirable objects/outcomes/abilities, therefor missing the RPG-element
3. Becoming stronger and acquiring more, different and better weapons and skills is part of many genres. Some Racegames (tuning) in fact have it, modern Beat-'em-ups have it, Platformers have it and ofcourse, Action-adventures have it.

The Legend Of Zelda is a special game, but I think it has more to do with the world and awesome gameplay that you call it a "genre onto itself". I can mention hundreds of games that have a special place in my heart and I know have a special place in the hearts' of others too. Little Big Adventure, Grim Fandango, Eternal Darkness and Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines. Everyone of them is unique with no equals, but still they can be defined by one of the 10-15 genres there are. And The Legend Of Zelda is an Action-adventure.

Eh, humans are too freakishly picky anyway.  I highly doubt it's necessary to label every single thing.

Well, it is if you ask what people's fav rpg's are. And if you want to answer the question. What's wrong with labeling things (or people for that matter)? Something might belong to a certain category, but it still can be incredibly different from the rest of the category. A label is an indication of whether or not you will like it.
I don't like (most) Racegames, so it's nice to know if something is a Racegame or not. It also gives an idea of the gameplay. I'm a huge fan of (point-and-click) Adventures, so it's nice that people label it so I will know I'll probably like it.

Soulus Sage> I'm impressed. But I'd like to add Animal Crossing is not an RPG. More like a Sim.
