RPGS: Tell me your Top 5

[Vampyr]

5. The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

I actually spent the majority of my time playing this game on the original Xbox, without any mods or anything. I played this game almost non-stop for weeks...and during that entire time I never did a single part of the main quest. The only thing I did was explore the world, do house/guild quests, and build up my character.

4. Final Fantasy Tactics

Played this Sophomore year of high school I think...borrowed it and a PS1 from moogle. It was the first 'tactical' rpg I'd ever played. The story was just epic, and it was awesome being able to switch up my characters jobs. Although I like the GBA ones, they just never felt the same. I wanted my main dude to be a kick ass monk like Ramza.

3. Xenosaga

I wish I could get around to finding/buying the sequels to this game. The story was awesome, the characters were awesome (especially Ziggy), and the battle system was really fun.

2. Disgaea: Hour of Darkness

Hilarious game, and everything is just so ridiculously over the top. I mean, being able to level up your guys to 9999, -and- being able to level up your weapons. Not to mention several levels to every class. It's a grinders dream.

1. Dragon Warrior III

One thing that really made this game for me was being able to hire your party members at the tavern in the beginning, give them a name, and choose their class - then have them follow you around on the map.
