I picked up some childhood favorites the other day at a vintage gaming store, and the guy there expressed excitement that the PS5 BC will move a lot of his old PS2 games (which are the most abundant stock). I figured that maybe now is the best time to get PS2 games for a while since that might drive up prices.

Is there a genre that you prefer or don't like?Don't really like horror, and I don't really mind if there is a better version on GC or Xbox. For reference, the handful of games I have are: MGS Trilogy collection, GTAIII and VC (will order San Andreas when I get paid), FFX, and Star Wars Bounty Hunter. I'll probably grab FFX-2 and XII, maybe even XI since it'll probably be cheap with the online servers gone. Ratchet, Jak, God of War are all potential games to get. Oh, I also have Greatest Hits of Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, and regular Re:Chain so I've been thinking about getting the black label of 1 and 2 if I find a decent copy. Part of this is rebuilding my PS2 collection because when I was young, my oldest brother would secretly take our games and sell them, usually to buy alcohol/marijuana. But I've also just started to enjoy collecting games in general lately, and PS2 is nice in that a lot of games came out --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Devil may cry seriesDMC and Max Payne are good tips. Copies aren't too expensive on eBay. I'll think about RE. I don't like horror, but RE isn't strictly about the horror if that makes sense. The games I really stray away from are the Silent Hill types. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

They're so much better in almost every way. That's just my opinion though and the originals are solid games! I'd also recommend the Jak & Daxter games (1-3 and X, mostly). ... Copied to Clipboard!

Picking up those copies is more about the collecting than the playing. I also have many PS2 collections on PS3 (Jak, Sly, Ico+Colossus, GoW1/2) but I'm still considering those. The benefit of these kinds of collections is that it drives down the price of the original PS2 games lol. I also forgot to mention I have my childhood copy of SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Shadow of Destiny & Killer 7.
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne is also really dope, as is Max Payne 2, which I enjoyed a lot more than I did the first one. and if you can find it for a decent price, then Steambot Chronicles is pretty charming, IMO. --- b-bb-box ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, it was pretty dope. They're releasing a new one, if you weren't already aware.Yes, the gods have blessed me with a DAH! remake and a Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom remake. I played so much DAH! 2 as a kid. I really like the direction they went with the second game, focusing on cultural parody and general fuckery. I'll check out the other games you listed since most PS2 games are pretty cheap. I imagine it's because every game got a ton of copies printed and most of them have been ported elsewhere. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

A little PSA for anybody that wants to buy the GTA games on PS2:
The trilogy set already has some expired songs removed from San Andreas to due licenses running out. So if you want the "song complete" version be sure to buy the solo PS2 version. Out of the set, they will look identical aside from the fact that the bar code on the set version is gone and replaced with "this is part of a set." Now, I'm not actually sure if every trilogy copy of San Andreas is missing songs, but I do know that some are. Of course, you can always play a downgraded Steam copy as well to get the songs back, I believe. Or if you don't care, that's also fine, but some of my favorite songs lost their licenses. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Isn't the remaster of ff12 better?Like I mentioned in another post, this isn't strictly about having the best version of a game, if that makes sense. I have remasters and ports of many PS2 games. For instance, I have the MGS Legacy Collection on PS3 but I also have MGS1-3 through the older collection. I can play FFX remastered but I bought FFX on PS2 the other day. In some ways it's better if there are remasters available, because that usually makes it cheaper to buy haha. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

A lot of the stuff the remaster added was useless and stupid IMO. They "fixed" problems that only idiots complained about, and therefore the result is a game for idiots. Don't @ me.

Just throwing in my two cents about the recommendations so far:
Devil May Cry 1 and Armored Core 2 are among the worst games of all time. Anyway, my list is: Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 Zone of the Enders 2 (and maybe 1 for context) Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 Shadow of the Colossus Shinobi Ace Combat 4, 5 and Zero (especially 5) Mega Man X8 Rise to Honor --- 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 ...

Lol I had Armored Core 2 as a kid I think, or my brother did. I did not understand it at all, my young mind was not ready.Balancing a mech sim with a business sim was the coolest idea ever, and even the awful-ass control was a cool idea but point stands that it had awful-ass control. I get it. I really do. I am fairly familiar with the controls of construction machinery, and have been for a long time. And in that regard, it's brilliant. It feels authentic af to that kind of control. But it's positively terrible for actually playing an action game with. --- 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 ...

Oh. I guess Ill wait and see. Having all my PS games running on one system would be pretty nice though. Honestly I'd be shocked if it happened. Considering they didn't bother to pay for a CD-ROM license for the PS4 to play PS1 games and they restarted the PS2 Classic program to charge people to play the same old games again I just don't see it happening. If the rumors of enhanced BC for older systems is true I think it's much safer to expect them to use that to do the same thing they did for PS2 games on the PS4. An excuse to re-release them digitally. Only way I see it happening is if the PS4 has some sort of native PS3 hardware in it. --- Kind Regards, Darmik ... Copied to Clipboard!
