    Japanese... if they're translated that is.
    But then, I do like all kinds of RPGs

    Japanese Rpgs like Chronicle Trigger, Chrono Cross, Final Fantasy...um all of them except 11, I'ven't played the real anime ones like Star Ocean and stuff. But I'm a huge lover of jap rpg-they're one reason why my eyes are blurry and I have to wear glasses cause I've used to spent so much time leveling up my characters.-cool2

    There is a big difference between Japanese and Western RPG.
    Japanese RPGs tends to be very repetitive and lineair, for instance Final Fantasy series
    Western RPGs tends to be more free and non-lineair, for instance Warcraft

    I like all rpgs as long as the storyline is good.

    Asian rpgs have better fighting/martial arts moves. Western ones don't concentrate on the fighting skills that much or they have boring ones.

    Jap, because their fantasy setting is more child like, I don't really like the whole more mature fantasy thing... I make exception though... like Fable and Oblivion.

    Also, there always something new about Jap RPG's, Western RPGs are always medievil.
