What in your favorite rpg game and why?

I am a huge fan of fallout 3, and I do enjoy borderlands. But what rpg style games do you like most andwhy?

Personally I love how fallout 3 works. You can be good, evil, neutral. You can kill everyone you see(except your father). And the sights are spectacular. I love the open world aspect with a place that I actually know, DC. It's cool to see the buildings in post apocolypse condtions. And somehow vat combat is so so satisfying :D

Still searching for a Disgaea-style RPG on PC but until I found it I'd go with games in the style of King's Bounty or Heroes of Might and Magic 5

There are many RPG games that I love but the best would be Deus Ex. The game is hard but very satisfying. Other than that Oblivion, Diablo, The Witcher etc. are all great RPGs.

Mass Effect and Dragon Age are my favourite because your character is your own, I like Oblivion to, stuff like The Witcher just doesnt interest me.V4LENT1NE

1. fallout 3- one of the first RPGs i had played and i got lost in the world completely to such an extent that my dreams were filled with super mutants and raiders :P no kidding ...seriously,:evil:the fat man according to me is one of the best weapons in video game history.

2.dragon age origins- the first time I came across a game's storyline that felt like an epic fantasy novel (lotr), and i fell totally in love with all the characters, they were so authentic and believable.

3. witcher 2 - IMO no RPG sequel has been this good, with a complete overhaul on every aspect of the game over the original making it one that will stand the test of time (minus the bugs and glitches and less monster slaying quests over the original, BUGS haVE largely been fixed waiting for version 2.0 ) the political nature of the plot as well as geralt's journey of recovering his memory is extremely intriguing. hats off to CD PROJEKT RED

4. mass effect 2 - a game that gives new meaning to "choose your own adventure". cant wait to see how my decisions/choices in ME2 will ultimately affect in ME3

5.witcher 1- one of the best dark fantasy tales ever told, the themes/plots of the witcher universe can be related to real life situations, with every character having moral shades of grey, and a very believable & cynical world it is.

Ultima VII: The Black Gate (1992).
