Quake3World

The following games look pretty cool:

Final Fantasy X
Devil May Cry 3
Tekken 5
Gran Turismo 4
Metal Gear Solid 3
Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal
Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Kingdom Hearts
Ico
Katamari Damacy

Are they? What are the exclusive MUST HAVE PS2 titles that would make the console worth a buy?

What year was that system released again?

The year of the shite.

It was a fantastic console back in the day.

But come on, its to old now, and that pad sucks cock to play anything with...

GTA San Andreas is almost must have....nothing is really must have though.

And Gran Turismo 4


Ico is really really good too

I was going to get one of those slim PS2s but I don't even play my xbox anymore. Games just don't grab my attention these days.

Get yourself a used Xbox, add a mod chip, start a collection. It will become your entertainment center.

xbox fucking owns.

Driving a square car in GTA:SA with pop up things 20 feet in front of you at 15FPS does not own.

'muff said.

SA was a lot of fun, but yes, the utter shit graphics really did detract from it.

see if the new gen sony console will play PS2 games, if it does then wait to get that one.

i see. odium is all the way down to cryland again

ps2:
i still like it -
ico
soon ico2
final fantasy x
kingdom hearts (bad story but ACE gameplay! - and some really challenging bosses, something you dont see that often anymore!)
Tekken
silent hill
final fantasy 12 - in a year or so
kingdom hearts 2
rez

I'm not sure about buying a PS2, but I'm even less sure about buying an XBox. If I'm gonna buy a console I'll need kick-ass exclusive titles (and none of that sports game shit), and a number of 'em.

hm.. they aren't that expensive anymore. plus there are modchips

Where does one find modship tutorials (PM?)

PM Turbanator, or odium, or Pauly(?)

They should be able to fill you in.

Its not crying, it true I couldn't care less if the game was boxier than it is. The problem is, that playing at 15 FPS with that ugly shit being all thats on screen, is not fun to me.

but be warned: their chips are NO JOKE to install...you need expereince in electronics, and not just oh i can turn this on and off

Ok.

the point is: even though the console is allready a few years old, there is still some fun to have with it. gaming is not about uber gfx, it's about gaming.

Are there any reasonably easy to install modchips?

If you have an old xbox you can do a soft mod and not have to even open it, but yes there are some real easy ones... I don't know the names but is almost just a drop in.

How does the modchipping actually work if you don't even open the box? Do you know specifically which boxes qualify as "old"?

I agree, but I tend to have a threshold for acceptable graphics and fps so that it isn't exceedingly distracting from the actual gameplay.

Whurd.

I know you all think im a graphics nut, but im really not. I would rather play an ugly game smooth than a nice game stuttering.

really like SA, but the pop-up does my head in. it's at it's worst when you use the jet and have to hover above the ground for a minute waiting for everything to load.

there are a few games that make it worth getting a ps2. not saying that and comparing it to any other console, not serious enough about my console games to care - but you can pick up a ps2 for next to nothing, so why not do it.
