Didn't like Dark Cloud that much. Dark Cloud 2 is a masterpiece though. Looooove Dragon Quest VIII.

Bully is pretty fun. It's hard to move to from GTA, though. A little limiting.

What makes DC 2 better than 1?

I'm looking fwd to Dragon Quest... it looks like a SNES-style RPG... as impressive as the PS2 Final Fantasy's are, all the fucking cut-scenes get sort of irritating after a while. It's like watching a movie rather than playing a game.

DC2 was developed by the people who made Dragon Quest VIII. It's just waaaay more fun. I dunno. DC is a bit.. clunky.

SOme PS2 games I reccomend: Ico, Shadow of the Collossus, Okami, Disgaea 1 and 2, Makai Kingdom, Phantom Brave, Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, Shadow Hearts, Rogue Galaxy, Persona 4, Rez, Taito Legends (this has like 30 awesome games on it!), Capcom Collections 1 and 2...

Yeah, the DDS's are good. Wasn't a huge fan of Fes, but ETERNAL PUNISHMENT is one of my all time favorite games. The soundtrack on that thing.. damn!

Just got back from the mall with my wife. I picked up Maximo: Ghosts To Glory, Activision Anthology, and Sega Classics Collection -- all cheap!
