Plano Skywalker Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 alright, seeing as current gen consoles are only going to get more and more affordable, I may end up grabbing a PS2 for some games I can't get any other way. we've heard a lot of good things about God of War. anyway, what are the top 10 games for the console? they don't have to be RPGs but the top 10 from an RPG gamer's perspective.
LoneWolf16 Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance 1 and Everquest: Champions of Norrath +Call to Arms I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast
mkreku Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King, Road Trip: A Road Adventure, Resident Evil 4 (not really a RPG, but soooo good) are the ones I've played the most on my Playstation 2. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Plano Skywalker Posted June 5, 2006 Author Posted June 5, 2006 well, I have heard a lot of good things about Champions of Norrath...the main thing being ever-changing content.
Musopticon? Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 ^I call meh. Final Fantasys X and X-2, Arc the Lad, God of War(an rpg? hardly, but a good game), ton of jrpgs and a few other good action titles. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
karka Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Shadow of the Colossus (adventure) Ico (adventure) Silent Hill Pack (2,3 and 4) Guitar Hero (If you like rithm games) GT 4 (Driving Sim) Resident Evil 4
Musopticon? Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 ^Good choices, hardly rpgs though. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today.

Meshugger Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Final Fantasy X God Of War Shadow Of The Colossus Devil May Cry 3 Metal Gear Solid 3 Soul Calibur 3 Tekken 5 Resident Evil 4 Guitar Hero Ico "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Musopticon? Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Ah, almost forgot. Try Tenchu 3: Wrath of Heaven. It's rpgish, but very enjoyable and challenging stealth game with some replay value and choice. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Oerwinde Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 my top 10 PS2 games would be, in no particular order: Suikoden 3, Suikoden 5, GTA(all 3 lumped together), Star Ocean: Until the End of Time, Final Fantasy X, Prince of Persia(lumped all together), Beyond Good and Evil, X-Men Legends(both together), MGS2, MGS3. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Volourn Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Final Fantasies, EA Sports games, BGDA + copy cats, and wrestling games (espciially SD series which has some rpness in them) are the best PS2 games. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Darque Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Disgaea - Hour of Darkness Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne Shadow Hearts Resident Evil 4 Silent Hill 2 Romancing SaGa Makai Kingdoms Front Mission 4 ObsCure Indigo Prophecy that's off the top of my head.
Setzer Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 Hmmmm Top 10 eh? In no particular order.... Dragon Quest VIII Kingdom Hearts Kingdom Hearts 2 God of War Ico Champions of Norrath Baldur's Gate DA 2 Hot Shots Golf 3 Soul Calibur 3 Breath of Fire V
Azure79 Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I like playing fighting games on my PS2. Tekken 5 (skip 4) Soul Calibur 3 (2 is also good) Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution Of course I also like playing: Prince of Persia Sands of Time, Warrior Within and Two Thrones God of War is a must. Burnout Takedown and Revenge are also good if you like racing. For tactical RPGs, give Gladius a try. Its pretty good. R-type Final and Gradius 5 are also cool games. Don't forget the Metal Gear Solid, I would get Substance and Subsistence Katamari~! When did I accumulate so many PS2 games...though all are used.
astr0creep Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 In no order: 1-Burnout 3 takedown 2-God of War 3-Dragon Quest 8 4-GTA San Andreas 5-FFX 6-Kingdom Hearts 2 7-Dark Cloud 2 8-Resident Evil 4 9-Ace Combat 5 10-Xenosaga 1&2 http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Pope Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Just can't stress you enough to GET God Of War. It's super fun.
astr0creep Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Just can't stress you enough to GET God Of War. It's super fun. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And cheap now. 30$CAN! http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Oerwinde Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 (edited) I think its funny. It seems like lots of people like DQVIII. Unfortunately I can't get past the bad graphics. The horrible designs of the Dragonball guy, mixed with cel-shading = yuck. Edited June 8, 2006 by Oerwinde The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

The horrible designs of the Dragonball guy, mixed with cel-shading = yuck. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Man, the graphics are beautiful... What I didn't like was the fact that it looked too much like Dragonball. When the main character goes super sai... I mean, reaches "Max Tension," come on...
Darque Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 Well, they are designed by the same person all the way back to DQ1
angshuman Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I've heard God of War and Devil May Cry 3 are similar to Ninja Gaiden? I'm playing NG currently and it's driving me wild. I might end up picking a cheap used PS2 for GoW and DMC3. What are GoW and/or DMC3 like in terms of Combat (pace, challenge, variety, balance), Presentation, Story and Badass-ness of the Hero? Yeah yeah yeah, I know Kratos is the baddest of them all :D, but can he match Ryu wiping blood off his True Dragon Sword after performing a Storm of the Heavenly Dragons? Huh? Huh?
Musopticon? Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I think Kratos blows Ryu out of the water. I mean...ninjas? lol kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today.

Haitoku Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I think Kratos blows Ryu out of the water. I mean...ninjas? lol <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, I have no problems with Ryu... But Kratos overall is a much better character.
