I think that having 3 installments from one fighting game series is a bit excessive. I mean, fighters traditionally change a teensy bit with each game, so for the sake of a comprehensive list couldn't you pick the one? I know it's hard (I can never tell you which Soul Calibur is my favourite) but 3 Tekkens seems like too many, I think.xXGuitarShredXx said:

Still, 6 out of the 10 titles you mention as far from PS2 exclusives and you're far better off getting them on PC or Xbox. Also MGS3: Subsistence is far better than Snake Eater, here is my list only I have the caveat that they MUST be 100% PS2 exclusives (alphabetical):
You're not alone in your Killzone liking. I might even prefer it to the sequel. It might be bug-ridden, sloppily made, have wildly inconsistent sound quality and a plot bland enough to write a novel about business suits with, but Killzone feels unlike almost any other FPS I've played. It's so slow and meaty, from the huge amounts of recoil to the achingly long reloading times. It feels like every shot fired or clip slotted in is a tactical decision. That's just cool. The Helghast are fascinately infinitely more memorable than the protaganists, and that *thunk-splatter* sound of popping their heads over and over again is just magical.Iwata said:
Yes...the PS3 has yet to blow my mind. Then again, neither have the 360 or Wii, so it's disappointment all 'round. Then again, I have precious little love for the Wii whatsoever. The best thing about it is the GameCube compatibility, and that's hardly the main point of a new system. I hope beyond hope that the PS2's sales record isn't broken by that. Anything else I can deal with, but the Wii? Lots of ground to cover yet, but still...stabnex said:
Well, I count exclusives because I generally try to own all the platforms of a console generation, in the end at least (though I didn't actually get an Xbox Original till after the Xbox 360 had launched) and due to the nature of the PS2's design it fared poorly on multi-platforms as not only was it underpowered compared to the competition but was very tricky to develop for. Third party titles are usually multiplatform where in the last generation at least the Xbox or PC usually stole the advantage due to being generally more powerful and flexible.Tryzon said:
haha yes, difference is good, as me and my friends debate alot about favorite games, but at least we have some common interests, and wooh, thats cool, since there was already 3 pages of posts before mineTryzon said:
I class games the same way as you do. I won't argue Timesplitters but we'll have to agree to disagree on the hitman franchise. The original on PC was interesting at best but I've just never liked the series. It might surprise you to hear that I'm not sold on ICO being in my own top 10 list. It's an artistically stunning game and was loads of fun but I feel it might have gotten by on art more than it's roots as a game.Tryzon said:
I would but unfortunately, there aren't really any others i've played that i love. i don't get Ps2 games that often, but i've played the ones i have to death, and still going strong on some. And Sly is awesome, just not at the same level as Jak and Ratchet. i intend to get Shadow of the Colossus/Okami/Psychonauts ASAP
An interesting proposition. Since my intention with this giant thing was to encourage PS2 playing, it would be foolish to alienate potential acolytes.Mehall said:
