I'm nominating metal gear solid 3.
Not only was it critically acclaimed but it's also the game that falls before MGS 5 on the timeline. This makes it more relevant with the upcoming release.

I'll second Earthbound..
While most RPGs are set in fantasy, quasi-medieval, dragon lands, Earthbound's starting location is small town USA (Eagleland). You take the role of 4 kids instead of a mystical dragoon and are armed with baseball bats, frying pans, and bottle rockets. You fight cranky old ladies and runaway dogs instead of the typical doldrums of RPG enemies. You get to fight a fricking cup of coffee. You save the game by calling your dad and he deposits money on your ATM card. The writing in Earthbound is one its strongest suits, imo. You will seriously try to speak to everyone twice to read the all funny arse dialogue, not to mention the cult spoofs of things such as the Beetles, The Blues Brothers, Monty Python, Mr. T, The Grateful Dead, and many more. I could go on and on.
Fuzzy pickles.
