Yes this is shameless plug to show off my small collection of RPG games. :)

Edit: Added Deus Ex to the poll.

Planescape: Torment, but only by a whisker over Fallout 1-2. If Wasteland were on your list it would be in the top 5 too, despite the pitiful DOS era 16-color graphics.

BTW Morrowind is pretty good too.

I picked the Fallout series (I voted for Fallout 2)...but, then again, I'm not a RPG junkie either. ;)

Another vote for "Planescape Torment",I have played and liked most of the games that are on your list, but "Planescape Torment" is a classic in every sense,too bad we won`t see a "Planescape Torment 2" but we can always live in hope ;)..

I voted NWN. I haven't played ALL of those rpg titles, but I did play the BG series, and that's what got me hooked into rpg games.

I personally dont like pure RPG games.
Most of them have the same setting with a different story. Those types of settings only work in one game (series), and thats Zelda!.
Which is another good RPG game. At least i think its classed as an RPG game! :)
DeusEx1 and to a lesser extent, DeuxEx2 are also very good.

HOMM3 is a strategy game, not an RPG.

I voted for Planetscape. I just love that game! It's brilliant!

Planescape: Torment, duh :)
Just finished it again yesterday, unfortunately I didn't merge with the Transcendent One like I did a year ago, instead I killed him after resurrecting Grace. It's funny that you find out Morte isn't really dead if you choose to resurrect him, little bastard.

I don't own them. I tried the Diablo 2 Demo but I don't like the interface. I haven't tried Morrowind yet, but maybe someday I'll get the time.

I have Deus Ex 1 but I forgot to add it to the list.

you made my head explode, this poll needs checkboxes instead of radio buttons, they're all soo good, I voted for Baldurs Gate 2 tho, because that is the game I played first (yes I know, strange way to start in a series, I played BG1, and all other infinity engine games afterwards)

but every single infinity engine game (from fallout 1 to Icewind dale 2) is top notch imho, and are also in my RPG collection.

Thanks for all the votes.

The funney thing is I haven't played either of the top games to the end yet. In fact I just install Icewind Dale and Fallout on my son's computer to get him started on RPGs. :)

I just started playing Torment over the weekend. I must say I can already see what makes this game so unique.

PS:Torment pwn3d like no other. ****
And like all good things, it died too soon. :(

As for others on your list, credits where they're due (for those played or planning to):

Baldur?s Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast ***1/2
- battles are tough as nails, one of the best expansions
Baldur?s Gate: Throne of Bhaal ***
- powergamers fantasy come true, but fairly worthwhile
Fallout ***
- pretty good nostalgia, but overshadowed by the sequel
Fallout 2 ***1/2
- point blank SMG bursts, caseless miniguns, flesh-melting plasma rifles, WHATMORECOULDJAASKFOR?!?!
Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter **
- underwhelming hack n slash rigmarole, a poor man's ToB
Neverwinter Nights ???
- have it, but not yet played
Deus Ex ???
- now playing... solid story and world depth
