So I just got a PlayStation 2...

[scorptatious]

Well I was about to say Shadow of the Colossus, but you beat me to it.

Some games I could recommend are the Kingdom Hearts games, God of War 1 and 2, and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, (or it's special edition "Subsistence" if you can find it)

Those are just at the top of my head. There are probably some others I'm forgetting.

The Sly Cooper series. Do it. Now.

Like these games.

 

[Chris646]

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Psychonauts, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, Persona 3&4.
Those are some good games for it.

 

[Aeshi]

Just about everything I was going to suggest has been suggested...

How about Killer7?

 

[UberMore]

Kingdom Hearts.
The Three PoP games.
Need For Speed Underground 2, complete it then get Need For Speed Most Wanted so you can start with the best car in the game (Golf GTI is a TANK).

 

[AngryFrenchCanadian]

There are three games i can recommend:

1. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
2. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
3. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Of course, he must train first to be able to handle how awesome that game is.

That means he must play Metal Gear Solid 2 first.

Get shadow of the colossus (zero punc did a great vid on it), the godfather was fun but i didnt have a 360 or ps3, so it didnt have variations that it coulda had. for example, all the other families compounds were just different interior decoration styled with almost completely similar layouts. i also recommend star wars battlefront (1 or 2, both were fun), bounty hunter, and clone wars.
i also liked tiger woods 05, mostly cuz it had the nearby course of sherwood cc

 

[Nechti_Visara]

Ape Escape 2! Ape Escape 2!

It's a really dumb and relatively easy game, but it is hell of fun.

Also Katamari Damacy is an absolute necessity.

Also also Kingdom Hearts and Okami.

 

[kinggamecat]

Disgaea (1&2)
Fatal frame (1&2)
The Silent Hill series
Persona 4
Shadow of the Collosis
Beyond Good & Evil
Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland
Sly Cooper 1-3
Okami


I'll probably add more ^^

I love this forum.

You're 10 years late
Get all the Ratchet and Clank games, Metal Gear Solid 2/3 and Soul Calibur 3.

 

[Tharwen]

If you have friends, get something from the Burnout series, and Star Wars Battlefront 2. The graphics are a bit dated, but they're still great fun with other people.

You should probably start tallying these games up and choose the most-often-suggested ones.

 

[Dalek Caan]

God of War 1 and 2 and Stars Wars Battlefront 1 and 2. Gore and lore. Can't go wrong there.

 

[RheynbowDash]

If you need a good racer, the PS2 version of Need for Speed: Most Wanted is the best. If you can get your hands on the Black Edition, get it.

Also BLACK. One of the best FPSs out there. STILL WAITING ON AN HD REMAKE.

You're 10 years late .

I know I am.

But when the PS2 was a new and innocent little child, I was a ragingly committed Nintendo fanboy so I never gave it the time of day. Luckily now I have seen the error of my ways and, being given a free Playstation 2, I decided that fuck it, I might as well embrace my new possession and use it to bury myself in the gems of its epicly immense game catalogue.

 

[BlackHazard]

Persona 3 and 4
Final Fantasy 10 and 12
Beyond Good and Evil
Zone of the Ender 1 and 2
Xenosaga 1,2 and 3
.Hack series
Jak and Daxter 1,2 and 3
Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2
The Metal Gear Series
Ace Combat
Shadow Hearts
Devil May Cry

 

[OniYouji]

Not Subsistence? You know...the one everyone agrees is better?

It's on the Xbox Games on Demand store, if you have an XBox. That's probably the closest you'll get.

I've already got it, but I want a true 1080p remake.

Sounds like a high tech computer and some kind of niche watercraft.

Well, since you put it that way. I forgive you, now run, play those wonderful games that you've missed out on!
