Looking for something new to play. I have played all the good RPG games on SNES and i am curious what good games the Playstation has in its library.

RPG games is redundant.

The PSX has a lot of "good" JRPGs. JRPGs tend to be linear, only giving you an illusion of choice and openness. The result is that they're not fun to play, but sometimes they're an entertaining ride.

To be honest, the PS has probably the best Good to Bad RPG ratio.
You could probably pick one that looks interesting to you randomly and enjoy it.

Crpgs are linear too if you break them down. If you are into roleplaying, it has to be pen and papr, even then, that's linear because the variation is limited to the mind of the players and GM. I guess nothing fucking matters.
