Boomers in this thread. Can you explain why a lot of PS2 games seem to hold up pretty well? I've been emulating PS2 games for the last year or so and most of them are really fun. They didn’t feel hard to get into at all. I played FF10 a few months ago and it was very soulful. The voice acting and music and tone in general was all great. https://youtu.be/VqCAhsWVH_g

That's 10 with additionals, so many more I could fit in. I actually missed out on a lot, never played the RE or DMC games. There was plenty of respectable titles that I didn't care much for.
For me, I had a SNES and N64 prior so with the PS2 I was also catching up on the PS1 classics due to backwards compatibility. The scale and quality of the PS2 roster couldn't be comprehended by newer gens, it was just absolutely stacked.

I miss the joy of going to the video hire store and borrowing some random game with 0 knowledge of what it was, knowing that it'll probably be good. Now I can scroll through 10000 games on steam and know for sure that they are all shit
>>
Easily one of the very best
>>
>>722618415
Xbox's best games:

Driv3r
Hitman: Contracts
Steel Battalion (probably)
Splinter Cell
Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow
Splinter Cell: Double Agent
Jet Set Radio Future
Phantom Crash (probably)
Silent Hill 2 (probably) (played it and loved it on PC)
Gun Valkyrie (probably)
Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath (probably)
Rogue Trooper (probably) (good on PC)
>>
>>722619042
Also:
Ghost Recon (good on PC and Xbox)
>>
>>722619042
I'd absolutely make room for Panzer Dragoon Orta and Ninja Gaiden Black on an OG Xbox list. Gun Valkyrie is a great pick by the way.
>>
I love the PS1 and PS2 so much, bros...
>>
>>722612370
DMC3
RE4
Kingdom Hearts/2
Ratchet and Clank/2/3
Jak/2/3
Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Persona 3 FES
Nocturne
Last can be God Hand, Dark Cloud 2, Wild Arms 3, Valkyrie Profile, or anything that doesn't suck like FFX or any Rockstar game.
>>
>>722612370
My personal top ten would be
>10.) Prince Of Persia: The Warrior Within
>9.) Ape Escape 2
>8.) Final Fantasy X
>7.) Tenchu: Wrath Of Heaven
>6.) Onimusha
>5.) Sly Cooper And The Thevius Racoonus
>4.) Jak 3
>3.) Harvest Moon: Save The Homeland
>2.) Ratchet & Clank
>1.) Metal Gear Solid 3
These are the games that I have replayed the most and have had the most fun playing.

>>722620393
2 and 3 are much better because of upgrades and strafing, despite what some people will insist about 1's level design.

Not the best games but this is just I think my top 10. Its hard to actually pick a 10 for PS2 games as there was so many also I'm excluding games like Resident Evil 4 and Soul Calibur 2 which were more associated with the Gamecube but I loved those games.

10. Spider-Man 2
9. Final Fantasy 10
8. Star Wars Battlefront 2
7. Primal
6. Devil May Cry 1
5. Tekken Tag Tournament
4. GTA San Andreas
3. Jak 2
2. Metal Gear Solid 2
1. Metal Gear Solid 3
>>
>>722620860

In which marvel multiverse?, because here in Europe everybody and his mom has those game on ps2, and some people has several piracy copies of those on ps2 too.

>>722612370
PS2 has like 3 good games on it that weren't ported with double the frame rate.
Like gradius V.

Gamecube version of RE4 came out first and the Gamecube version of SC2 had Link in it. So I would just associate them with the Gamecibe more than the PS2. I had the PS2 and Gamecube and I got RE4 and SC2 on the Gamecube. Its the same way I would associate Splinter Cell with the Xbox despite them coming out on PS2 and Gamecube later and I didn’t even have an Xbox.

Bully and Maxpayne were kino. GTA was niggerlsop though.
FFX was absolutely garbage, and anyone who says otherwise is the peak definition of normie.
>>
>>722619349
Cheers. I had the Ninja Gaiden demo on Vita. I didn't like it.
I loved Tenchu Z on 360 though.
Panzer Dragon Orta doesn't interest me because it's a rail shooter, but so is Rez and that is one of my favourite games. Lylat Wars was great too.

This might be a waste of time but it was enjoyable to me, should have gotten an original Xbox release:

https://www.myabandonware.com/game/made-man-confessions-of-the-family-blood-frb

It'll run well on 20 year old integrated graphics.
I'm not sure if the download link is the right one, it took two before it worked for me. Same site or another, I'm not sure.


A good freeroamer the Xbox should have had:

Start in a Mech suit, with Front Mission online graphics.
L1:
Boost (dodge) when pressed fast and moving in a direction.
*Fly. Shield degree, more decreases attack power. Multi missiles, more increases missile split to more missiles. Slow time amount. Cool weapon (machine gun) amount. Lazer sword length (any contact instant kill). Invisibility distance. Auto targeting. First person shooter hold aim down sights mode (anything hit in it instant kill, but same for you). Suck health from nearby enemies, more taken (faster) the more left trigger depressed but if they die while you take left trigger feeds them you.

R1: Fire
Face buttons & dpad: Change to other mech suits.

*One of the suits has you in it, you can't tell. One destroyed could be game over. Random which. Large risk to reward ratio. Taking on more than you can handle multiplies the monetary gain exponentially. So does that mech suit destroyed doing it.

Funds can be spent on weapons or safe areas. Safe areas repair mech and rearm.
And there you can talk to people, see interiors, get missions.

Canis Canem Edit

Bully

Was good to me then. Good atmosphere for the town. I'd be more critical now, but I saw some good then. Like it showed a feeling of freedom, world larger than you and suiting.

Rockstar is part of the antichrist association, but this and Space Station Silicon Valley
Were nice.
Some of RDR too, the graphics and wandering anyway, some of the shooting. The dialogue is detrimental, you "hogtie" people. It's parody. But looks and feels good.
>>
>>722624350
Bully gives a good feeling the world is ahead of you. Something to grow up to.

Or stay young for.

I personally believe this fact.

The "platinum" etc branding is in bad taste.
It's like a site logo on a picture of a sexy girl.

Like they are trying to make it cheap to seem appealing. Instead of it being the best thing ever.

Ew no. Player's choice > the other 2. That said; nothing ever beat the Nintendo golden seal back in the day.

Can someone explain why I liked DMC1 but didnt like DMC3?
>>
>>722626160
The hardcore appeal; DMC1, while, clunky and stiff it's so well conceived and designed that doesn't feel safe and formulaic like 3 was in structure and had the player on their toes and when enemies arrived they didn't pull any punches in aggro making it fast paced. Also; it's the one that retains the most its origin DNA out of every game of the series
>>
>>722626160
you want to feel difference and special
