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...

I'm not sure how much I liked Makai Kingdom because I only watched my girlfriend play it, but it had the best video sequences ever. Better than Katamari Damashi's, I think.

OH YEAH, Katamari! I love those games too, forgot to mention 'em!!

In addition, you might wanna pick up Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1+2 and Persona 3: Fes. Also, if you have the chance -- though this is a psone title, those will work on a ps2 system-- pick up Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. RPG orgasm right there.

atsonicpark · 12.27.2008, 08:16 PM

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!

A LOT of my PS2 games are collections of older console games.

One of my favorite JRPG soundtracks.

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