Well, ME2 is obviously worth looking into.
Alpha Protocol is kinda neat, although by far not perfect, partly because of forced bosses and partly because of some other issues.
As far as older games are concerned, you could check out Planescape Torment which I regard as one of the best PRGs, at least story wise, and Fallout 1+2. Oh yeah, and Arcanum is supposed to be decent.
You could also try out KoTOR2. It's not as good as BW's original game, in my opinion, but still worth playing.
Oh, and there's the Witcher series, of course.

i wasnt really a fan of mass effect... it seemed to have the elements of things i would like, but it just didnt click for me... i don't know why...

as for Planescape torment, I've been looking to check that one out for a while. same with the Witcher and fallout 1+2.

Maybe the Fable games. Fable: TLC had too many loading screens for me to play it. Maybe the newer ones are better.

I second Alpha Protocol. If you can look past the blemishes, it's an awesome game.

Well, in the second part various elements and mechanics changed, so who knows, maybe it'd appeal more to you.

It's available on GOG.com if you're interested, just as the rest.

Witcher 1 has rather unusual fighting controls which puts off some people. I, for one, liked it, but it may be not the same for you, so I'd recommend to watch some footage of the game first.

meh, just wait for skyrim.

2nd this Titan Quest is great

Gothic 2 can be played over and over again, long game

Gothic 1 is a good recommendation.

Dead Island is a fun game, but relatively light on the RPG side.

Two Worlds is a very fun game.

Fallout: New Vegas.
