i got some RULES though 
NO Final Fantasies, Breath of Fires(although they are kinda underated...)Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, etc etc you get the drift.
Im talking games that not many people have gotten into or gotten much credit cause there are a ton of them.
here are mine, and i think of these as absolute necesities if you are an rpg fan.
NES: Crystalis, Fire Emblem(though japanese, almost through translation i hear, but get a guide, great SRPGs)
SNES: Soul Blazer,
TERRANIGMA ( this game is zelda and Secret of Mana put together in one fucking glorious mix, only got a Jap and German release though, but you CAN get the translated rom, and FUCKING GET IT!!!!!)
Seiken Denetsu III-most likelye any Secret of Mana fan has played this...if you havne't the fan translated rom is out.
Langrisser: Great SRPGs that never saw the US shores, but got a fan trans...emulate it.
Star Ocean: wonderful game, that's all i can really say, will pull you in for sure.
Shin Megamie Tensei series: great, mature, dark srpgs that are hard as hell
PS1: Tales of Destiny and it's sequel ( i know the tales series is fairly popular these days, but these two are heavily underated)
Mega Man Legends-Action RPG enough, one of my favorite games of all time and does everything right with oh so much charm.
Sayuiki Journey West: great underated SRPG about gods in china and shit.
Star Ocean II-same as Star Ocean for SNES, incredible experience
Alundra 1 and 2 were pretty cool Zelda type hybrids.
Vagrant Story- diffficult to get into but possible the best battle system in an RPG ever if you invest the time.
Vandal Hearts-good srpgs
ahhhhhrghhghhg im forgetting some and i know it for the ps1....ill come back to it
PS2: Shin Megamie Tensei: Nocturne, SMT: Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2-hard to find but very worth it...mature themed, and very dark, pretty hard games, but hard games are goood!
Disgaea 1 and 2: Some of the best and most addictive SRPGs in history. ever.
Steambot Chronicles: a sandbox game about mechs that's really addicting and charming, with branching paths and TONS of replayability.
i know im forgetting PS2 ones too....tooo dopesick to leave my computer and walk to the basement though.
COMPUTER: Gothic 1, 2, 3- morrowind but better i think, just as much freedom but it has that charm that just fuckin hooks you, can do whatever you want, wonderfully underated game.
Sacred: Better than Diablo II in every aspect imaginable, find this game and play it if you want to play a good DII clone(this one isn't really a clone though as it expands on it soooo much, the game actually is difficult like a real RPG, and not a loot fest).
phew...alright geeks, lets hear em!
