Playstation 2: Must Have Games

[CrafterMan]

Hello!

I recently just bought a playstation 2, as the damn thing was so cheap and I thought ha, why not!

Bought God of War 1+2.

Just wondering what other games you highly esteemed escapists would recommend!

I thank you for your time good sirs!

Shadow of the Collosus, defo!

 

[RoboKy]

I would also recommend psychonauts, and okami

 

[Zippy1313]

Devil May Cry 1 and 3, Castlevania: Lament of Innocence, Final Fantasy X and XII, Disgaea 1 and 2, and the Ratchet and Clank series.

 

[NeedAUserName]

GTA: San Andreas.

 

[Jimmyjames]

Star Wars: Battlefront 1&2 are both a MUST.
Shadow of the Colossus
Tekken 5
Devil May Cry
Gran Turismo 4
GTA San Andreas
Mercenaries
Psychonauts
Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Everything mentioned +

Zone of the Enders 1&2
Okami

and I think this topic has been done before, sorreh. Just warning you for the impending "OMG USE THE SEARCH BUTTON NOOB" posts.

Also get FFT (PS1 game) if you can

 

[Sewblon]

Resident Evil 4 and Killer7 if you don't already have them for the gamecube.

 

[JaguarWong]

All of the above plus:

The Mark of Kri
Mr Moskeeto
Viewtiful Joe
Capcom vs SNK 2
XIII
SSX Tricky
Ico

 

[RhinoTuna]

- FFX
- GTA San Andreas
- Max Payne
- War of the Monsters (Am i the only one who liked this game?)

They're the only must-haves that i own. All worth it

 

[TsunamiWombat]

Max Payne 1&2, though getting them for the PC is preferrable because they're low requirements now and have hella crazy mods for them out that are still being developed.

 

[Castrate the Heathen]

God of War
Okami
Psychonauts
Silent Hill 2
Resident Evil 4
Metal Gear Solid 3
Shadow of the Colossus

 

[Darth Marsden]

Ape Escape series
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
Jak & Daxter series
Kingdom Hearts (Questionable)
Ratchet & Clank series
Rogue Galaxy
Sly Cooper series
Spider-Man 2 + Ultimate Spider-Man (and no others)
Timesplitters series

...these are the PS2 games that I own and would recommend - except Kingdom Hearts, which as I say is somewhat questionable. Try renting it first.

 

[SimuLord]

My PS2 has primarily pulled duty as a sports game machine, the one genre I like that's just plain not meant for the PC.

That said, I greatly enjoyed Katamari Damacy and its sequel, and I'd also recommend Gran Turismo 3 and/or 4 plus the Grand Theft Auto games (3/VC/SA).

 

[jsouth88]

Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Final Fantasy X, Jak and Daxter series, Price of Persia series, Ratchet and Clank series, Killer 7, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Rez, Resident Evil 4, Silent Hill 2, Manhunt, GTA Series, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, Psychonauts, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. This list goes forever.

Metal Gear Solid 3 comes to mind first. Probaly because i'm playing it as i type
