Getting a Ps2... Advise me.

[DisturbedZen]

How do these games sound for a new PS2 owner? Most of them will probably be had for 2 for $25 during the next week at BB... Im on a budget of course... But I've come up with quite a big list of games just to start me off with a new console.

Gran Turismo 4
Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater
Kingdom Hearts
FInal Fantasy X
Devil May Cry
Katamari Damacy
Dark Cloud
Xenosaga
Naruto Part 2
Initial D Special Stage

How are those looking? Am I missing anything?

I was also looking into GTA:SA this week for $33 but Im not sure whether or not to wait for the Xbox version...

you should probably get only 1 or 2 games at a time that you are DYING to play, and actually play them then go to the other games, with this site and all its good deals its easy to buy a bunch of games in the hype and then they just sit there, but those are pretty good games, to play naruto and initial d you would need a mod chip or a fliptop or something of the sort,, great games if you are into those sort of things tho, espceially naruto, its like budokai 3

BB have Buy 2 GH/PC/PH for $25 or TRU have Buy 2 for $30 any game $19.99 or lower.

[RelentlessRolento]

also, there are even cheaper titles that are as good as those like ICO.

[cheapass Gundam]

Gran Turismo 4 - wait for this to become a Greatest Hits title for $19.99
Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater - ditto, but I think the price is already dropping
Kingdom Hearts - already $19.99, get it.
FInal Fantasy X - same as above
Devil May Cry - too bad you missed out on the CC $5 sale last year
Katamari Damacy - great deal for $19.99
Dark Cloud - no comments
Xenosaga - $19.99 or less for Ep 1, good deal, although this game is not really up my alley (sit there and watch longass movie before any gameplay happens... zzzzzz)

Naruto Part 2
Initial D Special Stage

Are these 2 import-only?

Other games I'd recommend:

Silent Hill 2 GH version
MGS2 Substance (good luck finding a copy - the PS2 version is better than the Xbox port)
Shadow of Destiny
Fatal Frame 1 & 2
Tekken 5 (wait for it to become GH)
Tenchu: Fatal Shadows
Ace Combat 4 & 5
Onimusha 3

maybe look into buying some used games. twisted metal black, maximo ghosts to glory, about 5.99 at ebgames. devil may cry 1 is 5.48, i think, at toys r us, that's how much i got mine for...

check them 6 buck games out...

[Javery]

R&C? J&D? HSG4? GTA3/VC? Man there's so much great stuff to play....

[ValkyrieVF-1S]

Zone of the Enders 1 and 2!!!!

Also try out the Ace Combat series.

[pRINCESS-iSABELA]

Amplitude, Frequency, DDR's, REZ, Gitaroo Man :P

[dpatel]

You should probably wait on MGS3 and GT4. They are great games but you could buy the cheaper older games now and by the time you finish them buy those 2 later. Plus, MGS3 is much better if you play 1 and 2 first.

I also recommend ICO, Mark of Kri, Champions of Norrath, Shadow of Destiny, Gitaroo Man.

Gran Turismo 4 - wait for this to become a Greatest Hits title for $19.99
Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater - ditto, but I think the price is already dropping


Yea these 2 games should be Greatest hits by next X-mas....

then wait for 2 for $30 deals...

I got so many games to play... So I can wait for the price drop.. no big deal to me...

Get xenosaga, great game can be had @ ebgames used for $13 after coupons...

[Spoon_si]

if your picking up Final Fantasy X... pick up X-2 also to finish up the story line.... cause FF X will leave you wanting more...

[crazyboxer12]

I don't think kingdom hearts is really that good of a steal, even at $19.99
