    101 replies, posted
I was feeling like I needed some nostalgia so I recently purchased a PlayStation 2 and I've been looking for games to buy. What are some games that I definitley need to pick up? I bought Twisted Metal, Metal Gear Solid 2, Kingdom Hearts 1 + 2, Thrillville and some Matrix games. I already have the classics such as Jak and Daxter and Ratchet and Clank, but I just wanted to see what you guys recommend.
how about god of war and god of war 2?
Should I get Silent Hill 2? Which one is the best of the series?

Sly 1-3 are games you should definitely pick up, but if you can only get 1 of 3 get #2.

[IMG]http://www.justgovintage.com/images/PS2-GAME-SpongeBob%20SquarePants%20Creature%20from%20the%20Krusty%20Krab.JPG[/IMG] Also nearly every other Spongebob game for the system. They are masterpieces. Especially Creature From The Krusty Krab. Also get the other Nickelodeon games by THQ, (Jimmy Neutron, Nicktoons, Fairly Oddparents, etc.) Masterpieces. Star Wars Battlefront 2. Simpsons Games. Spider-Man 2. Lego games. Also, great choice on Thrillville. Sad that its a dead series. I want a HD Remake of "Off The Rails" :cry:
metal gear solid 1. it's compatible, but without a ps1 save card you aren't able to save.

This game right here: [T]http://media.gamestats.com/gg/image/object/802/802142/MidnightClub3_DUBEditionREMIX_PS2BOX-Rated.jpg[/T] You get a car, race other people with cars, get money, customize the shit out of said car, race some more, buy a faster car. Seriously though, this is a good game made by R* San Diego. Bonus: [T]http://i28.fastpic.ru/big/2012/0203/c1/f8a9a9617cfd3eceab7099ca20a3e7c1.jpg[/T]

Thanks everybody! I'll check these all out.
[QUOTE=based;48790579]Ratchet gladiator[/QUOTE] AKA "Ratchet: Deadlocked" over here in North America. But really, all 4 ratchet and clank games, if you can find copies. :p The Destroy All Humans series was pretty good, as was StarWars: Battlefront. God of War was a decent series as well, as long as you don't mind QTE's out the ass. Oh! Also GTA: San Andreas just for the novelty, which was by far the funnest for cheats. :p Riot mode anyone?
Tony Hawk 3 and 4 are excellent! Underground 1 and 2 are good, American Wasteland is okay...
Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection. Get the Legacy Collection for PS3 instead if you have a PS3, though. Or the HD Collection for 360 plus MGS1 for your PS2.

Any of the Tony Hawk games (Aside from Proving Ground), and The Spyro the Dragon series. And if you're into first person shooters maybe BLACK and Call of Duty:Finest Hour.
ATV Offroad Fury The best part is going out of bounds and getting thrown half way across the map. :v:
