Still waiting for a sequel. : (

damn,i got the game,somewhere in my pile of PS2 games,never tried it,but of what i hear from u,i gotta give it a try

That game was epic. The graphic and gameplay was godly at that time (2005 or 2006?) Too bad some 'monsters' (robot wasn't monster) are imbalanced.

 

[x3GlikE]

^True

 

[Narrat0r]

For me?

1. Crysis 2
2. BlazBlue Series
3. Batman: Arkham Asylum
4. Bionic Commando (NOT Rearmed, the full-3D one)
5. Magicka

Crysis 2 was too epic for this.

Crysis 2 was too epic for this.

Crysis 2 is an incredible game that certainly lived up to everyone's expectations. However, in my opinion, they were a little overly liberal with the plot. Even though it is epic, thrilling and compelling, it was an overly drastic change from the original -- from lush, tropical islands, Korean military and cnidaria-like aliens utilizing cryo-technology, to a desolated city, humanoid aliens, and whole new characters and story direction. And also the constant switching of protagonists (Nomad » Psycho » Alcatraz/Prophet) was a little annoying - what happened to character development? Still, it is an amazing game, and is still one of my favourites to date. People have differing opinions, though. But let's not stray too off-topic.

All in all, in conjuction with my previous post, I think there are different circles or aspects in which one game can be the best. For example, in terms of the plot, I would have to go with Deus Ex. In terms of gameplay, I would have to go with either Half-Life 1, or Metal Gear Solid. In terms of revolutionary graphics, Crysis, and so on. In my sole opinion, there isn't a "best game over all."

Quite tempted to exclaim Final Fantasy VII, but I think it'd be narrow-minded of me to only pick one game when there are so many exceptional ones out there. Icewind Dale (and basically anything Black Isle Studios touched) is a good candidate. I've got to mention Transport Tycoon by Chris Sawyer (and, perhaps more notably, OpenTTD) for keeping me interested even to this day. While I'm at it, I might as well add Tibia. SC/SCII belongs here too, for being the only RTS I've actually cared about learning. Unreal Tournament 2004 (and the others) for being the single most awesome time-killing online shooter (though Quake takes a solid second position). Lest I forget, DotA, Strength & Honour, WarCraft III (demo > RoC > TFT) and the rest of the Final Fantasy series.

Kings Quest 3 (Can't install it anymore... Damn 6 inch floppy discs)
Wc2 & Wc3
Age of Empires 2 & 3 +Xpacks
World of Warcraft (TBC, Wrath, and Cata sucked)
Oblivion
Mario 1 & 2
Zelda (All of them)
Disgaea
Sacred 2
Zoo Tycoon 1+ Xpack
Tales of Vesparia

Basically anything on the NES, Atari, etc...

Shadow of Collosus,Predator Concrete Jungle, were also very good games...
Especially Shadow of Collosus,i think every PS2 owner should try that game,it deserves this

Try beating the original Shadow of the Colossus without a walkthrough, its nearly impossible! (The original game was called ICO, its around 1-150$ on eBay)

 

[Dynamiczx]

well...some monsters can be beaten without walktrought...i managed to do it on some,but some are hard...but still the concept is mind blowing,it got puzzle,adventure,a bit of RPG i think,and the fact that u,a small skinny guy with a horse go against gigantic monsters is insane ,and also,the soundtrack,the environment...

 

[Deleted member 177737]

=P I'm talking about ICO, not Shadow of the Colossus. (Shadow of the Colossus is the sequel to ICO).

 

[Deleted member 157129]

Who pays $150 for a game?

 

[Dynamiczx]

ahh lol,my mistake

and Shiik,i doubt anyone would... )

 

[HINDYhat]

Heh, I still have a working copy of Earthbound. If I cared to part with it, I think I could probably eventually sell it for around that much.

 

[Lightskin]

A lot of people.. that's the price of some PS3 games ._.
I'm not saying that's a normal not-freak price! XD

In my opinion the BEST games are:

Left 4 Dead *-*
World of Warcraft
Warcraft III
Call of Duty Modern Warfare
Emergency

 

[Deleted member 157129]

Obviously, there are some games that are (like art) collected, and they raise in price according to rarity.

New game for $150, though, is about twice what you pay for any new game here. Select titles, for PS3, reaching $100, but just barely.

 

[Deleted member 177737]

Its kind of stupid to pay 100$+ for a brand new game on the newer systems. Personally I just go over to the local EB games and snatch up any decent games for my old systems for 3-15$ each, they usually end up being very fun. If I want a new game for my XBox360 I do the same thing and get a fairly new game (as in it came out within the past 4-5 months) for a reasonable 25-35$.
Game manufacturers are just trying to leech money out of the kids who want to be "cool" by having the newest w/e right when it comes out...

 

[Geazergimli2]

IMO and from my experiences i would have to choose these (prolly more but cant think of em right now )

Star Wars : Bounty Hunter
F-Zero GX
SSX 3
Zelda (all of them)
Metal Gear Solid 4
Mass Effect 2
Might and Magic VI-VIII
Lands of Lore III
Elder Scrolls III : Morrowind
Giants : Citizen Kabuto
Super Smash Brothers Melee
Super Mario 64

good memories

 

[Steel_Stallion]

Giants : Citizen Kabuto

That game was hilarious.

Nah thats to new, go with the original original version played with military radars (It doesn't describe that one on wikki, weird...)

 

[Adaethus]

In no particular order:

Final Fantasy VIII
Diablo 1-3
Tomb Raider series (TR3 especially)
Sims 1-3
Warcraft 3 + expansion
World of Warcraft
Starcraft II
League of Legends
Minecraft

I guess that's about it.

 

[CanadianEeh]

pong spaceinvaders and starcraft 1 .......good times
oh and pac-man

 

[Hubcool]

All Tony Hawk's games! Those shaped the youngest dudes of generation Y!

 

[Jazztastic]

It really depends. Resident Evil 4 had beautiful gameplay, but a meh-story and voice acting, still love that game. MGS 1 had an absolutely GENIUS story, great gameplay, but it lacked a good camera and first person, taking the skill level down by a lot (a problem TTS fixed). MGS 3 is my favorite of the series, with great gameplay, more focus on stealth, and over the top boss fights and a great story of conspiracy and betrayal. I also love Wind Waker, it was my first Zelda game. I really like Stuntman: Ignition, because it was so out-of-the-box and creative.
