Thread: What game should I buy?

  1. #1

    Default What game should I buy?

    For the PS2.

    I was thinking of Shadow of the Colossus or Mortal Kombat Armageddon.

    But I need suggestions. I'm going to GameStop today.

    I already have (so don't suggest)

    FFVII Dirge of Cerberus
    Final Fantasy XII
    Tomb Raider Legend
    Naruto Uzumaki Chronicles

    Preferably action with swords or guns. I don't like games with Zoid/Gundam-like themes.

    Thanks.

    If hilarious amounts of blood and frontal nudity don't bother you, get God of War. Easily one of the best PS2 titles available.

    Shadow of the Colossus is one of the best games on the system. Buy it. Although if you're just going for swords or guns, the Devil May Cry collection or God of War are good choices.

    Tales of the Abyss

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Shadow of the Colossus. There are few games that top this. The fact that you even need to ask whether or not to get this, and want help deciding between this or MK Armageddon shows that you are woefully unaware of its brilliance. Go buy it. Now.

    Yeah seriously, not to get your expectations up TOO high, but Shadow of the Colossus is in my top 5 all time favourite games.

    Get Ico before you get SOTC. Much better game.

    Because your opinion constitutes fact.

    I personally think that Okami>Shadow of the Collosus>MK Armageddon

    They removed individual fatalites, the best part of the game.
    Leave some shards under the belly
    Lay some grease inside my hand
    It's a sentimental jury
    And the makings of a good plan

    Resident Evil 4.

    Devil May Cry 1-3

    God of War

    Okami

    Shadow of the Colossus

    -Pretty much the same ones everyone else mentioned, but they are all A+ games.

    Judging by your other games I would probably say Resident Evil 4, Devil May Cry or God of War.

    I don't know what Shadow of Colossus is like, but I'm feeling drawn towards the game myself.

    Devil May Cry 1 or 3 (2 is kind of lame and unnecessary) and definitely God of War. Resident Evil 4 is also an excellent game. The Prince of Persia games are great too, but be warned, they're very challenging.

    I tried MK: Armageddon...not that great, the fatalaties thing is really weird and there are better fighting games out there.
