I finally took my ps2 out of the closet and have a 250GB hdd to fill with games (roughly 80 games).
help me build a list of the best games for the console. I'm gonna skip games that have better PC versions since space is tight. same for arcade ports which I can just emulate the original version.

oh and if Diablo 2 belongs on /vr/ (400+ thread says it does) then the ps2 belongs on /vr/ as it came out months before that game.

anyway recommend me some games! so far I got

Baldurs Gate DA
Baldurs Gate DA 2
Demon Stone
Champions of Norrath
Champions Return to Arms
Draken (Something or Other)
Kings Field (Something or Other)
X-men Legends
Spider-Man 2
Ultimate Spiderman
Hulk Ultimate Destruction
Rampage World Tour
Katamari Damacy
We Love Katamari
Godhand
Way of the Samurai
Way of the Saurai 2
Samurai Western
Ratchet and Clank 1, 2, & 3
Gungrave
Gungrave Overdose
Twisted Metal Black
Burnout 3
Burnout Revenge
State of Emergency
Yakuza
Yakuza 2
Okami
Ico
Shadow of the Collosus
Sky Gunner
All SOCOMs, Metal Gears, Dark Clouds, Final Fantasys and Silent Hills(should I skip any?)
I'm skipping GTA's (because PC) and Tony Hawks (because I can't go back to that shit from SKATE) and fighting games (arcade emulation)
I don't know which Armored Cores or Ace Combats to add but I don't got room for em all.

No. It has its own specialized architecture and the GPU is way more powerful than anything before it, outdoing even the other 6th gen consoles in sheer polygon pushing power. It may adhere to retro sensibilities, but it's definitely not retro.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:29:18 2019 No.5651869 >>5651861 There are PS1 and N64 games that came after the 1999. The rules state that the system is the discriminant.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:30:28 2019 No.5651870 >>5651865 >outdoing even the other 6th gen consoles really? how come Xbox and Gamecube multiplats look better a lot of the time?

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:31:34 2019 No.5651875 >>5651861 >there is no rule regarding system specs There literally is. "Platforms released before 1999". If your computer parts made before 1999 can run the game, it's retro here.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:33:52 2019 No.5651880 >>5651830 Skip FFX-2 for sure, you might hate XII depending on your taste so I suppose give it a try

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:35:43 2019 No.5651890 >>5651870 Because they were more advanced in other ways, and because their architecture seldom ports well to the PS2. PS2 games didn't port all that well to those consoles either.

>>	Anonymous Mon Jun 10 23:40:37 2019 No.5651906 >>5651901 Why a bunch? Just one is enough, there is also a MMO thread if I'm not wrong, you could post there.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 11 00:23:13 2019 No.5651985 >>5651920 Nobody uses USB anon. Literally nobody. IDE/SATA through network adapter is the accepted way and a big improvement over disc speed in most cases.
