I have my PS2 hooked up all the time but I haven't played it in a while. Every year I always make sure to play through the Ratchet, Jak, and Sly games at least once. Longer games like Kingdom Hearts or GTA: SA I play about every other year. I used to practice running Jak 2/3 a few years ago but I stopped once I started getting busy with work and school. My one friend knows a few people in the speed running community so I might actually get back into it this summer.
No doubt that the Ps2 is the greatest gaming console of all time. It's been over 20 years and I'm still managing to find incredible games on it.
Hidden Gems:
-ICO (adventure game, made by the same studio that developed Shadow of the Colossus)
- Mr Mosquito
-Okage:
-Metal Arms a Glitch in the System: one of the best third person shooters I've ever played
-Scooby Doo Night of 100 Frights and SpongeBob Battle For Bikini Bottom: Two of the best platform games from my childhood, both made by Heavy Iron Studios a company that actually puts alot of love into licensed games
-Billy and Mandy (Power Stone clone that's really fun)
