Plarkster Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Wow there's so many! Depends on what types of games you like - have a look at this list and see which ones appeal to you: http://www.metacritic.com/games/ps2/scores/ Can't go wrong with the GTA games, God of War 1 & 2 and the Prince of Persia and Burnout series.

CelticWhisper Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 If you like RPGs at all, even in the slightest, get yourself Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga. You will not regret it. Aside from that, Shadow of the Colossus is good, Zone of the Enders is decent (though the 2nd has a couple of real enjoyment-killer boss fights), and there are a lot of 3rd-person action/adventure titles that are quite enjoyable. (Devil May Cry, God of War, Chaos Legion, Crimson Sea 2, Nano Breaker, Drakengard, Dynasty Warriors...the list goes on) Some of those are better than others, but most can be had for pretty cheap nowadays so it's a fairly safe investment overall.

D!ABOL!C Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 It really depends on the games you like. However my recommendation is Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c3ntury Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think i get about 5 for now as a "starter" package then work my way through a few more once i have mastered those? How does this sound - Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 God of War Pro Evolution Soccer 5 (Oh a Fifa Game) Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty Medal of Honor Frontline Feel free to give advice about the list :) I figured i would get the first GoW and since you cant get the first MGS i decided on the second, this way i can work my way through the series. Questions - Whats the best War-Based game? I have picked MoH Frontline for now, but thats only because its the only game i know of that genre for the PS2. Where do i start with the Final Fantasy series? :-\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenom II Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 BURNOUT !! All of them are good, although I think Burnout 2 is the best :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmpyreanUK Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 If you have many opportunities for some splitscreen multiplayer wonder-fun, and you enjoy war games, then the Conflict series would be a superb choice! Go with Conflict: Desert Storm 1 & 2, and Conflict: Global Storm -- the Vietnam installment sucked the big one and should be avoided at all costs. I also loved a game called Freedom Fighters, it's a third-person shooter that got really good scores but was pretty much ignored by most PS2 owners.
