I've been sinking further and further into the RetroDECK time-sink of setting up my emulators just so, and having the most fun doing so. The PS2 is a largely unknown system to me, I neither had one nor spent much time before now playing through some titles.
So...this is what I have so far! Most have either HD texture packs (Rule of Rose for example, and also Silent Hill 2 has a incredibly big 29GB of HD textures, I added after taking this screenshot), or mods applied (Gran Turismo is Spec II)
I haven't got MGS3 there, as I'm waiting for the remake to arrive, but...
Can anyone suggest any titles which are 'must adds' for me? I'd appreciate it!
Crazy Taxi, GTA Vice City, Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec, Gran Turismo 4, ICO, Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II, Marvel vs Capcom 2, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, Midnight Club, Midnight Club II, Odin Sphere, Shadow of the Colossus, Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill 3, Shinobi, SSX, Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Time Splitters 2, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3.
That's my PS2 collection sitting on my shelf. Some of these have been remade into arguably better versions on later consoles, but the originals are still good.
For anyone who wants to play Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, don't forget about Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories, which was a PS2 port of the GBA game. It's integral to the very wild and wacky story of the KH franchise, you'll be (even more) lost if you skip it and go straight to KH II
Crazy taxi got quite a bit of attention, and it deserved far more. Great gameplay loop
Thank you!!!
I'd be pretty tempted by Tony Hawk's, but the recent news that 3+4 will finally be getting remade makes me hesitate to play. Since the experience will probably be better there!
