Earthbound for the snes and Final fantasy VI (also known as FF3 for the snes) are the best
Oblivion was ok
Fire emblem series was pretty good

Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, hands down
Larger area than Oblivion, and you really could free-form since the NPCs didn't scale with your every level, they scaled at milestones, and the good NPCs weren't in harms way forcing you to do the main story before anything else if you wanted to have a good shot at actually beating the quests that requires NPCs

I'm tempted to say Rogue Galaxy or Fallout 3. Those are the best JRPG and WRPG that I can think of at the moment. I'm sure I'm missing the best one though.
I cannot choose.
Fallout 2 is great, but the early game is something you need to force yourself to go through.
Or maybe, BG2. Alot of charm, but also cheese.
VTM:Bloodlines is great, but it was left to fans to make the patches for it and the end game is a series of repetative fights.
Planescape:Torment has weak combat, but is great otherwise.

Earthbound still gets the spot for me.
Especially due to the fact that it was released during a time when RPGs were not popular at all, and thus it is also the Most Under-rated game ever, due to the god-awful reception it got stateside. (Atleast, thats my opinion.)
But the clever writing, Amazing gameplay, and likeable characters are more than enough to make it my favorite RPG.

Vagrant Story for JRPG. Great, amazing gameplay. It was linear, but didn't feel like it; so you had the feeling of getting somewhere, but not being forced to. Story was good, but really needed a sequel in order to expand upon it. And the soundtrack was amazing for the time, hell, it still is!
Oblivion for Western RPG. Huge, Giant game. So much stuff to do, and it's pretty much all up to you how you do it. The Main storyline sucked, but the Dark Brotherhood story was great; the whole mythos involved in the game (the Daedra, factions, basically the Elder Scrolls world) was great.
Unfortunately my experience with Western RPGs is limited since I'm a console-tard and most are for the PC.
