So my 360 disk drive failed on me, just when my Brother is due to come visit next weekend. All is not lost though as I have dusted down my old PS2, but I only have FF12 for it. I'm a member of an online rental website but I need to have at least 10 games on my wanted list, at the moment I've only got 5 and 3 of them are Tekken games :grin:. So fellow Sarcastic Gamers, what games would you suggest to add to my list.

Current List -

Tekken Tag - x
Tekken 4 - x
Tekken 5 - x

Picked up Tekken Tag second hand.

Dynasty Tactics 2
Everybody's Golf
Jak 3
Okami
Ratchet&Clank 3
Shadow of the Colossus
God of War 2
Resident Evil 4
Metal Gear Solid 3

Really? Stupid game? No other game replicates the experience of turning evil creatures into adorable little critters. Granted, no other game even has the option....

Devil May cry 3. I just recently inherited a ps2 and have been collecting games for it. So far I am very impressed with the library and have to say it is superior to the Xbox in terms of excellent single player games.

DMC is blisteringly hard at times but is a seriously badass game.

Ah, I had forgotten about Kingdom Hearts. I hear Okami was good too, but forgot it was for the PS2 originally until I saw this thread. :D

Both of those are GREAT games, and I might have to get KH 1 and 2 just for the sake of owning them.

I really enjoyed GodFather and Mafia, if you like games that are kind of like Grand Theft Auto but with a gangster theme.

Any of the Ratchet & Clank games. All are amazing (however 3 is my personal favorite). Both Kingdom Hearts are tons of fun (I like 2 better though). Also Drakenguard was an awesome game that i loved, that not many people picked up. Was a hack and slash type game, but tons of weapons, around 50 or so i think. Also the best part was you had a dragon, and could jump up on the dragon and kill enemies by shooting fire balls at them. Highly recommend it, great story line too. (Square Enix game)

Not sure if you were looking for strictly PS2 games, or if you were interested in PS1 games also. Final Fantasy Tactics is my all time favorite PS1 game, and defiantly in my top 5 games overall. Tons of fun. Also the classic Final Fantasy 7 if you never played it.

I'd say:
Deus Ex (thanks Balaamsafe)
GTA San Andreas
GTA Vice City
GTA Liberty City
Medal of Honor Frontlines
Guitar Hero 2

I definitely recommend the last one. Brilliant game. :thumbsup:

I still love both Kingdom Heart's and all the Ratchet and Clank's. They may be a little bit kiddie but still fun to try and complete fully. Never got into the Final Fantasy's because I'm afraid they'd suck all my money away after the 10th one I bought :undecided:

i know i'm probably a bit late with this one but:
Killzone is sooo underrated
007: Everything or Nothing is very good
And i know you already have it but RESI 4 is the single best game on ps2
