[QUOTE=Crumpet;41157949][t]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51TTV2JQ37L._SX_.jpg[/t] ???[/QUOTE] Had so much fun playing this at my friends house. Picked it up for like 3 dollars maybe 3 or 4 years back, was pretty amazed by it. The game had full-fledged ragdoll physics and dynamic lighting, which is amazing considering the hardware and that it came out in 2002/3.

I didn't grow up with any Playstations but I have a PS2 now with GT3 and Manhunt. Both fun games. I'd get Ico and Shadow of the Colossus but since I have a PS3 I'll probaby just get the HD remakes. I've heard GREAT things about those games.
Man, all this way into the thread and no mention of this: [img]http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnhg7xLiKm1qemdmxo1_400.jpg[/img] Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee can suck it.

My older brother sold our PS2 (We have a backwards compatible PS3) to gamestop to get a used copy of God of War 2 (Bet he probably pocketed a bit of cash as well). What a mistake that was. I want to invest and get another PS2, but I can't really afford it new.
[IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6d/Cookiecreamps2.PNG[/IMG] The only true PS2 game. And easily the best game ever made by From Software.

Also, if you all are getting into PS2 stuff, I STRONGLY recommend getting component cables and modding your console to use [URL="http://psx-scene.com/forums/f291/gs-mode-selector-development-feedback-61808/"]GSModeSelector[/URL]. A LOT of games are supported and some look absolutely beautiful when upscaled to 1080p on a modern LCD.

i still have a slim one (bought it 3 years ago from a friend) i sometimes play GTA3, SSX3, WWE, Tekken, etc...

Ace Combat is quite possibly one of the greatest series in gaming.

[IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/8d/ShadowHearts.jpg[/IMG] This game was awesome and dark, added in a gothic horror RPG game that i've not played since Shadow Madness. [video=youtube;DmEm1mzFk1E]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=DmEm1mzFk1E[/video]
Anyone else?

I never played the sequel, I should really try and emulate them both.

Free-roaming, robot-riding, mecha-busting, globe-trotting, music playing game, in a light-hearted victorian style world. I bought PS3 to play the sequel, but by darned twist of fate, the game was cancelled after tsunami/nuclear disaster hits japan. On top of it, my PS2 was stolen. Now I can't even play this gem. Its like losing your motherland to an alien invasion or something. It pains me until today
