Final Fantasy IX, Radiata Stories, Shadow of the Colossus, LoZ: TP, and Dark Cloud 2 typically round out my top 5.

REASONS:

FFIX is ****ing amazing, no matter what anyone says. I'm not sure what caused me to be so biased towards it, but it's so incredibly gorgeous in every way. I've always felt attached to this game, and that won't ever change.

I have no idea why I love Shadow of the Colossus like I do. Something about the way this game was presented just struck me. I've not yet quit being a hugeass fan of the thing and I won't any time soon.

Radiata Stories is doubtless one of the most amazingly addictive games I've ever played, and I find myself playing it over and over and over... Hell, I'm playing through it again right now. I'm not sure why I love it so, but maybe the friend system, coupled with the quirky humor and the surprisingly deep and subtle story that surfaces later in the game, as well as the extremely deep but equally intuitive battle system have something to do with it.

TP and Dark Cloud 2 are simply addictive and I had a lot of fun playing them. A lot of pleasant memories also surround my playthroughs of each (TP was in late 2008 during a more carefree phase of my life and DC2 was in 2004, when I was just beginning to truly get into RPGs and develop deep connections with my close friends, as well as just generally warm tweenhood memories)

Honorable mentions include: Mega Man Legends, Super Mario RPG, the Banjo Kazooie games, the Phoenix Wright series, the Paper Mario games, and many more.
