Recomended PS2 titles

**ThirdMarioBro** · 02-17-2007, 07:45 PM

Okay, I've got some cash lying around and some time to kill. I just started playing MGS1 on my modded PSP since Peanut inspired me by taking the plunge to play something he can't stand. Now I want a list of other stuff I missed out on during this brief dry spell.

What PS2 games would you recommend to someone who missed the boat? Only name me exclusives that I can't get on a superior platform. I know all the core classics, but name them anyway so I know what I need to go after altogether.

God of War
Shadow of the Colossus
Kingdom Hearts 1&2
Okami
Katamari Damacy
We <3 Katamari
Bully

Those are really the only games I enjoyed on the PS2.

I agree with all of these. I'd say Guitar Hero, but I'd wait until the 360 version.

Peanut · 02-17-2007, 09:13 PM

I was going to mention Guitar Hero, but it's such a steep price, and the PS2 version is going to be gimp compared to the 360 version, so he may as well wait.

All three Prince of Persia's, all three Jak's, all three Sly's, and all three Ratchet's. Sorry, but I was a sucker for all those games and loved them to death.

*Brodie* · 02-17-2007, 11:54 PM

Ico,
Hrm...
Not much else that isnt on anything else.

Zone Of The Enders 1 and 2
Devil May Cry
Okami

ZOE 2 is probably the best I listed.

Ra · 02-18-2007, 03:32 AM

From my personal experience, go with...

- Ratchet and Clank 1, 2, 3
- Kingdom Hearts 1, 2
- Jak and Dexter 1
- Soul Calibur 3
- Okami

*Mecha Cow* · 02-18-2007, 08:40 AM

Well, are you enjoying MGS? If so MGS2 and 3 are a pretty surefire bet.

Jed · 02-18-2007, 09:32 AM

Smuggler's Run 1 and 2 are pretty good to rent.

Yeah the remake of MGS was so cool, to bad I had beaten the game so many times on PS1 it wasn't even fun. I could beat it on Extreme without even trying. I breathed the game with it first game out.

*raphael_is_cool* · 02-18-2007, 04:18 PM

Final Fantasy X

~~AquaParade~~ · 02-19-2007, 01:12 PM

Hmmm I'd say some of them are...

Metal Gear Solid 3....or 2...but I think the third is better.
Shadow of the Colossus
God of War
Devil May Cry 1&2
Resident Evil 4(not an exclusive I know, but a lot of people dont have a gamecube)

All those are good games I would definitley reccomend...other than that I can basically only reccomend games I have heard very good things about but Have yet to play....

Kingdom Hearts 2
Beyond Good and Evil
Zone of the enders 1&2...reallllly wish I get a chance to play these, but I cant find them anywhere anymore.

*cowabunga14* · 02-21-2007, 04:15 PM

Bully
Okami
Guilty Gear X2
Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves
Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution
