My absolutely favorite RPG of all time is Final Fantasy VI. It was on the Super Nintendo, but you can play it on your PC using an emulator and a ROM file.

Also really good are Final Fantasy IV and V (also on SNES), Final Fantasy VII (on Sony Playstation or PC), Phantasy Star II, III, IV on Sega Genesis (can also run on emulator on PC).

The Exile series are pretty good, too. They have been upgraded to 3-D Versions and renamed as the Avernum series.

I came across a freeware retro-FF-clone a few years ago, it's probably still floating about. It was called "warrior dragon" and provided a few days' worth of entertainment. A google search should find it for you.

Another two damn fine RPG's, IMO, were Dark Sun: Shattered Lands & Dark Sun: Wake of The Ravenger.

Although the Last one was a bit buggy, they were pretty damn good, IMHO.

They're freeware now, and you can download them from the net. I have them both and I still play them from time to time.

Could try a free RPG type game called Laxius Power. A friend of mine reccomends it. Never played it myself.

I enjoyed the FFs and Dragon Warriors many of which can be found on Emulators now.
