Tomorrow is going to be a very important day for PlayStation, but today isn’t irrelevant either, as the PlayStation 2 turned fifteen in North America. Launched at the turn of the millennium, the North American release came on October 26th, 2000, following the Japanese launch on March 4th and preceeding the European debut by about a month.
Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."
They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.
Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid
I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
Hanzala from eXputer: "On this joyous 8th anniversary of the Ratchet and Clank reboot, it's about time Sony considers reviving the originals to complete the saga."
It's not the ideal situation but Sony does offer them on ps plus. I to would just like a big ass compilation on doscto though
Insomniac roadmap leaked a while ago and they are making another, they’re doing the best they can and these games, especially the last two, are master pieces
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
Best to good for me: 3, reboot, 1, 5
2 and 4 are trash, didnt like any of them.
5 has very good gameplay variety but i hated the foes.. it is just insects the whole time. Reboot has the best foes for me
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them
2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.
God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.
Great memories with PS2, games like Shadow of the Colossus, ICO, Ratchet & Clank, Okami, Sly Cooper, Jak and Daxter, Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, God of War 1 and 2, RE 4, Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, the list goes on.
So many games were released for the console, one of the best libraries for any game device, without a doubt.
Wow, that's almost unbelievable...
Time just goes by so fast, and now I just feel so old...
The Playstation consoles make it always difficult to create a list of their best games since there were so many and especially so many unique ones.
When I think at the Playstation 2 though, a few games come into mind right at the second I was thinking about the console.
WWE Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain
The King of Fighters XI
Tekken 5
SoulCalibur III
Dark Cloud 2
Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance, Deception and the surprising awesome Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks which was one of the best 3D beat'em ups ever made.
The Dynasty Warriors series, especially DW 3 and 4 and also the 2nd "Warriors" Series with Samurai Warriors 1+2
Silent Hill 2
G.O.A.T
Still playing my original phat PS2 to this day.
