So not to hijack this thread.. but to save a new thread on the topic that might get 4 responses.. which RPG's have come out in the past 10 years that are "must plays"?

Since I started MMO's with UO in 97 my RPG and console game play in general has taken a nose dive. I've gotten consoles, but years later and palyed very few games. "Back in the day" there wouldn't be a RPG that got past my radar, from crappy ones like Mystic Quest to the best of the best (IMO) like FF: Tactics or Ogre Battle...

I think the last RPG I got into was Ogre Battle 64 and Tactics Ogre... FF3 was the last Final Fantasy I played as well.

Watching all this footage at E3 and for the first time since 97 not being interested in any single MMO out there, I think I need to get back into console gaming.

I was always a huge fan of Tactics type games (Shining Force, Fire Emblem, FF Tactics, Ogre Battle, Tactics Ogre) Class systems and promotions have always got my attention. But I also played the live actions like Zelda and SOM, and the turn based randomized battle RPG's like Breath of Fire, FF1/2/3 and Chrono Trigger.

So which console/games would you recommend I pick up since the 2001ish era?
