I just completed bully on the ps2 (emulated on pcsx2)! Had a lot of fun, planning on going for jak & daxter series next i think. I never owned the console myself, so there are many gems ive never tried, and many i only played at friends houses sporadically.
This thread is a gold mine for suggestions!
Persona 3 FES
Shadow of the Colossus. Even if the world is largely empty, it’s still more fun to explore than most games. It was unlike anything I played before, and unlike anything I’ve played to this day.
I remember when I first reached the southern plains. I stood on the cliff and looked over the massive area. I couldn’t believe PS2 was capable of this. This must be some kind of backdrop and this cliff is the edge of the playable world. Jumping down the cliff would certainly lead to an auto game over.
So I jumped down the cliff just to try, and to my surprise I survived. What I saw wasn’t a backdrop - it was part of the playable world.
What’s even more amazing is how there’s barely any reason to visit this area. They added this massive area that really pushes the limits of PS2, and it’s just there mostly unused.
Red faction
Gran turismo 3
San Andreas
Red Faction was so cool. Destructible environments were way ahead of their time.
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time
STOP MAKING ME FEEL OLD, SIR!!!!
The Jak and Daxter series is still in my top 10
My brother and I almost exclusively used our PS2 to play God of war or Gran Turismo.
Midnight club dub edition was also played to the point that the disk stopped working.
Kind of sounds like you missed a lot of amazing games.
I mean we played a ton of different games, but we also lived in the middle of nowhere and we were lucky to buy a new game once every 6 months. Those games got a lot of replays simply because we didn't have access to a big library of games. We would trade disks with kids at school occasionally, but for the most part we only had like 10-15 games for our PS2 at any given time. Had to sell games we didn't play much anymore to afford new ones. Such is the life of poor people living an hour away from the nearest game store at the time lol
Did you ever go to the library? You can "rent" games for free.
What makes you think we had a library that had a video game section if I said we lived in the middle of nowhere and an hour away from the nearest video game store?
I wouldn't be surprised if the closest library to our old house up there just figured out how to install windows XP on their systems.
I'm not old. Lalalala. I can't hear you. But I'm not old, or anything.
GTA Vice City. I’m still playing it now on my iPhone. I love that game. San Andreas is pretty good too.
I just replayed VC all the way through on my phone a month ago, what a nostalgia kick
I got GTA Vice City in GTA San Andreas. Download it on my phone. I connect a PlayStation controller, and then I airplay it to my TV. It’s just like playing it originally, except the cheat codes don’t work! Lol.
