Well, as some of you know. I hate Sony. With a fiery fucking passion. BUT! I have decided that the concentration of my rage has been on the PSP and PS3, not as much the PS2. So I have decided to end my 7 year embargo of Sony products for the purchase of one Playstation 2. My request to you lovely (and handsome) people of Gamer's Abyss 42, is what should I get for my soon-to-be system? In terms of gaming interests, I'm pretty open minded. I do not like racing games or sports games, but other than that I'm good. As for RPGs I'm mainly a Final Fantasy guy so...yeah. Anyway, I'd very much like to hear what you guys have got. Here is my list of hopeful purchases so far. -Final Fantasy 7,8,9,10 and 12 -METAL GEAR?! 1, 2 and 3 -Katamari Damacy -We Love Katamari -Ratchet and Clank 1 and 2 -Shadow of the Colossus -Ico It's a small list, but help expand it GA42, don't let me down! ^^ |

That small list wound definitely be a good start to anyones collection! I'd also recommend - Okami Gradius 5 Suikoden 3 Virtua Fighter 4 Evo Phantom Brave Gitaroo Man There are of course loads more great games out there, but I thought those would give you some variety to your collection. Okami really is special - it isn't difficult, not by any means, but I've had more enjoyment out of that game than I have with any other for months. Shadow of the Colossus and ICO are also highly recommended too. If you do get both of them, play ICO first, but it isn't that important to play it first that you should leave SotC until you have. I would however leave MGS2 until you have play the first one - there's a lot in there that will loose it's significance otherwise. MGS3 is pretty much standalone so go for that one whenever you like! |

I've played and completed all three MGSs. I'm buying them for collection and replay mostly. But I do love Metal Gear Solid. Oh, I just remembered. I'm getting DDR Extreme 1 and 2, and Guitar Hero 1 and 2. EDIT - Actually Renegade, Burnout Revenge is really fun. Thanks for reminding me! |

INCOMING!
Long enough for ya? I'm sure if I missed any niche titles the guys will remind me. Feel free to ignore a good chunk of the PS1 list. Some of those games are damn hard to find these days. Bear in mind I'd be happy to loan you stuff I'm not playing too. |

I don't condone buying: N1 stuff, Xenosaga, or Star Ocean 3. And about a thousand (or 30) more pirated games, if you really want me to list them just ask. |

I can't believe I forgot! Devil May Cry 3 is awesome, and normally I'm completely unfussed about games like that. Same goes for Zone of the Enders 2 - I really need to buy that again... |

OK, I'm bored, so here's my highest recommendations... * = Games I've not finished but like enough to recommend anyways For PS2: Metal Gear Solid 2 Shadow of the Colossus Ico Okami* Final Fantasy 12* Castlevania: Lament of Innocence Star Ocean 3: Till the End of Time Suikoden 3 and 5* Silent Hill 2 Xenosaga 1, 2, 3* Zone of the Enders 1 and 2* Mega Man Anniversary Mega Man X Anniversary Sega Genesis Collection Shadow Hearts Ys VI: Ark of Napishtim Romancing SaGa* Wild ARMS 4 Klonoa 2 Medal of Honor: Frontline Dragon Quest 8* For PS1: FFOrigins, Chronicles, Anthology, 7, 8, and Tactics Metal Gear Solid Suikoden 1 and 2 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Koudelka Grandia Legend of Dragoon Vagrant Story Parasite Eve 1 and 2 Resident Evil 2 and 3 (the original is fine too, although the GC version is superior) Xenogears Silent Hill Eh, I'll just stop there. EDIT: Crap on a stick, how the hell could I forget the Legacy of Kain series?! Add Blood Omen, Soul Reaver 1 + 2, and Defiance to that list!!!! Actually, the Dreamcast has the best version of Soul Reaver 1, but if that's not an option, the PS1 version still rules too. EDIT2: Fixed a slight spelling error |

I'd think Soul Calibur 3 would be obvious for you. |
