I was happy playing my Sega Dreamcast when the PS2 first launched in NA. Even the DVD selling point wasn't enough to sway my opinion early on. It wasn't until next year when Sega was pulled the plug on DC, and I wanted to play Zone of the Enders that was exclusive to PS2. Looking back if it wasn't for its massive catalog of unique software, arcade compilations /re-makes, the blockbuster AAA titles were not for me (ex. GTAIII series). I prefer more simpler video games without a large map or realistic graphics. I still own my 2001 phat PS2 system that works today. Even enjoyed for a short-time playing online the few titles it offered, on dial-up nonetheless. |

20 years old? Jeez... It's okay I guess. It least it wasn't the Nintendo GameCube amirite? It was probably the console for which I owned the most games prior to becoming a full blown collectard. I kinda had crap taste in games at that time. I was a teenager, my judgement was clouded. A lot of the best PS2 games (according to me now) may as well have not even existed then. I didn't want to admit my curiosity for a game like Jak and Daxter to friends. I did end up getting it. Opened that sucker up years after the fact, and wow. Great game. Favorite PS2 game: Jak and Daxter. |

its what got me into "Hoarding" of Video Games, and probably my best during High School years. Defiantly thought me how to get thru hard times. It is my favorite Console. Favorite Game on their? Final Fantasy X cause it was my first game i got on the console, it thought me about friendships/love. Others i like as well was Shadow Hearts, Grand Theft Auto 3, TRAPT, .hack and GU series, Grandia 2, Arc The Lad, Armored Core 3, Zone of Enders 1 and 2. Way too many great games on their to name, but i defiantly recommended the ones above. |

I enjoyed my PS2. My favorite memory of PS2 is getting it ready for Resident Evil Outbreak. At the time, the slim wasn't out yet so to prepare, I went all out on upgrading my system. RE Outbreak was the first Resident Evil to go online and it was one of the few games on PS2 to use its hard drive that was sold only with FFXI. Having the HDD used for the game allowed for marginally faster load times and in hindsight wasn't worth the price of admission. I ended up buying the following: - HDD - $100 - Network Adaptor - $40 - USB Keyboard - $25 - RE Outbreak - $50 - Strategy Guide - $20 I played the ever loving hell out of that game. I believe I actually unlocked everything and to this day, it had my most used strategy guide ever. It was amazing how much there was to unlock and the game was tons of fun online. It was a sad day when the servers were eventually shut down. |
