Matt's Top Ten CRPGs @ Armchair Arcade

Matt Barton (of Dungeons and Desktops fame) has posted his favourite 10 RPGs on his blog at the Armchair Empire. At #10 is KotOR and at #1 is Pool of Radiance - I'll let you read the others:

1. Pool of Radiance. This is the game that really hooked me on CRPGs, even though I'd played Telengard, Bard's Tale, and others before it. It was really the package as a whole that captured me--I was already interested in AD&D and its subculture, but unfortunately knew no one who was into it. This game seemed like a great introduction, and it was. Unlike almost every CRPG after it, the world of Phlan is genuinely interesting and you feel like you're not just building up a set of characters, but a struggling town as well. I ended up playing almost all the Gold Box games, including the Dragonlance and Gateway series.

...and The Rampant Coyote thinks about his list, although he doesn't have a final selection.
