So, Games for PS2

[cheshirenoir]

Okay peeps. I'm mostly a RPGer, fond of Zelda and Mario. I'm not adverse to puzzle games and have a soft spot for Soul Calibur.

What games should I be looking out for on teh Playstation 2?

Things I am already actively working on acquiring:

• Shadow of the Collossus
• God of War
• Final Fantasy whatever
• Soul Calibur
• Katamari Damacy

What else?

Ico, which is from the makers of Shadow of the Colossus but a bit better IMO.

Ratchet and Clank is a surprisingly large amount of fun.

The Resident Evil series is always good, I've got Code Veronica if you want to borrow it (not the strongest title in the series but still fun).

I second Grant's suggestion - Ico is just so freaking great.

I don't know if "God of War" is intended as a catch-all, but get #2 as well. Both fantastic games.

I haven't played it, but Okami is meant to be really good.

I don't know if you enjoy driving games at all, but the Burnout Series is great, particularly Burnout Revenge. They have entire game modes dedicated to how spectacularly you can crash your car, which is SO MUCH FUN.

And then, of course, there is Guitar Hero.

I'm very partial to the various Lego games - Star Wars (two games, but I imagine "The Complete Saga" is the best and most efficient way of getting them) and Indiana Jones.

Another vote for Ico here.
It's a work of art,
and will be rememberd in video gaming history.

I also enjoyed Primal for exploring & puzzling,
and State of Emergency for rampant destruction.

If you have the faintest inkling of appreciation for scrolling shooters, R-Type Final is IMO the pinnacle of the genre. Unless of course you prefer Bullet Hell.

SotC and Ico have already been sufficiently recced, or I'd rave about those ,too.
