Worth looking into the PS2 version: -Dragon Quest VIII is worth trying to get on PS2, though some people prefer the 3ds version. -Legend of Legaia 2 was also pretty good. -The original .Hack trilogy is only on PS2 and was pretty fun from what I remember. -A bunch of Digital Devil Saga games. -Wild Arms 4, 5, and Alter Code F -Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter -Grandia III and X. -Though not an rpg, Gitaroo Man is also worth getting, since it can only play on a PS2 and is fucking awesome. -Classics like Ape Escape, Tenchu, The Bouncer, etc. --- "If history is to change, let it change!

| tri sapphire 05/31/20 11:13:36 PM #21 | Rurouni Kenshin: Classic action series. Not too long, and easy to get into. Eyeshield 21: One of my favorite sports manga. Helps if you can at least occasionally enjoy watching a(n American) football game though. Ushio to Tora: Bit of a more epic and long series. Also an older style of drawing, but still easy to enjoy and builds up to an amazing ending. Bartender: Fun and relaxing series that is more episodic. Focuses on, well, a bartender. Angel Densetsu: My favorite comedy manga. Art is a bit rough in the beginning, but does improve early in. Also a nice short read. Also seconding Pluto: A great sci-fi/noir take on one of the older classics. --- "If history is to change, let it change! If the world is to be destroyed, so be it!

And even with that, we're still requiring masks in public, and have yet to open more than a few more retail stores and malls (sans any sitting areas). Gatherings are still supposed to be limited to 10 or less as well, and even then they'd rather groups be all one household. Hawai'i is really only doing so well because the only way to get here is basically by plane. And they've been cracking down on the mandatory 14 day quarantine for people flying in.

Given that they recently determined surface smear contact was probably not a major transmission route, and that the summer heat would have mainly curbed that while doing very little for what's left (inhaling micro-particles from coughs or getting them into your eyes), possibly even increasing the chances of that since summer heat would make it harder for people to wear masks...
