“What PS2 Games Would You Like to See on Your PS4?” Asks Sony XDev Europe

With Sony’s recent confirmation that they are working on bringing PlayStation 2 games to PlayStation 4 by utilizing PS2 emulation technology, Sony XDev Europe went on Twitter to ask, “So what PS2 games would you like to see on your PS4?”

AizenSosuke3078d ago

Wow ok There'a bunch I can think of but Number ONE on my list would be GTA: San Andreas for sure.

Abash3077d ago

Dragon Quest VIII
Dark Cloud I and II
SOCOM II
Tekken Tag, 4, and 5
Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3

I could go on and on

Ricegum3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

Gran Turismo 4
Viewtiful Joe
Final Fantasy XII
Resident Evil: Code Veronica X
Timesplitters: Future Perfect
Silent Hill 2, 3 & 4
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons Of Liberty

That's just the games that spring to mind. The list is huge.

Crimzon3077d ago

There's probably no chance of this ever happening, but I would love to see Killer 7, especially if the game was upscaled to 1080p since the art style would benefit tremendously. It's so niche however that it will likely be forgotten, but it's one of the true gems of that entire console generation and should be preserved in my opinion.

Forn3077d ago

SSX 1-3. Burnout 3 & Revenge. Those off the top of my head just now, but there's obviously so much more.

MazzingerZ3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

I played enough titles on PS2, good times but I Wonder why people is willing To put free time again in old games? why?

While everyone's suggestions list is Great I feel at the sametime that I would like too keep my memories intact, those games, even with updated graphics will never look and play as good as they did when I played them.

I want the PS4 focus in this gen and VR, that's what I purchased it...put that R&D in introducing more features people want in The coming updates, Make proper remakes of classics IF that's the Case

Get the Last Guardian done instead, I have been waiting forever...

If they introduce this then it should be free as a thank you To The gamers and PS2 for creating a whole gaming generation and make updates related To that optional,
I don't want To have update my console for stuff I will never use.

Bahamut3077d ago

You said Dragon Quest VIII, and Dark Cloud 1 and 2. You have my upvote.

But I would add Rogue Galaxy and Final Fantasy XII for sure.

nix3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

Imma gonna press Agree button on every list bcoz i want everyone's wishes to come true.

@Mazzinger,

Even i really wouldn't care about games I've already played on PS2/3 because i would have spent hours on it and i really can't do that. I never repeat the games I've finished. But i don't mind games where i can drop in n play - like NFS, fight games, soccer etc. I really want that ps2 star wars pod racing game. I also want NFS Most Wanted because the reboots feels hollow.

And as for the resources, I'm sure Sony has it covered.

Looking at the lists, i can't even recognise most of the titles. I know only the mainstream games - GOW, NFS, PES, Prince of Persia etc. I have played hack// and Onimusha but man some of the titles listed here are never heard of. But this is the reality. These variety games are what makes a PlayStation.

Alicornium3077d ago

battle for bikini bottom. oooh yes

equal_youth3077d ago

Onimusha 1-3
I need this series back in my life :D

GTgamer3077d ago

Yesssssssssssssssss you sir have your priorities right *thumbs up*

pody3077d ago

Onimusha 3 was one of my favorites games. I still remember the intro clearly to this day.

Think of a new Onimusha for this generation. Ohh...

LackTrue4K3077d ago

Me
"TimeSplitters 2"

Take that COD fans....

equal_youth3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

I would love to play the complete series again. Sadly i lost my hopes for another title or even a reboot years ago.

Maybe a re-release would kick something of :D

snoopgg3077d ago

Yeah really want to play that snow level multiplayer on Timesplitters 2. That little monkey was classic!

Umbasa3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

YES! Also for me Oni, The Warriors and the Onimusha series!
Oh and Silent Hill 2 and 3. Timesplitters 2 and Psi-ops and The Suffering! Also that Resident Evil were you play plain old people like a plummer who could craft things, i think it was coop.

equal_youth3077d ago

Oni was the first game i played on my freshly bought ps2. Would be great to enjoy this again.

Umbasa3077d ago

Me too! I remember it was the 1st 3rd person game that made me use both analog sticks and i was like WTF? Thats the game that broke me into "full control".

pody3077d ago (Edited 3077d ago )

Bubble for Psi-Ops. Really cool game!

youndamie3077d ago

.Hack all seven games. They rank up there with Final Fantasy for me. Some of the best soundtracks in gaming history.

Spotie3077d ago

Add the Xenosaga games to that, for me. Yeah, the second one dropped the ball, but still overall VERY good.

showtimefolks3077d ago

ominusha
gta trilogy and psp ports
socom 2
Burnout 3 & Revenge
Timesplitters

bully
warriors

showtimefolks3077d ago

Ok so just saw the digital foundry analysis and I am really excited

So this emulator would up scale the game to 1080p (not native but still much better than 540) and the frame rates seems to be much more stable at 60 FPS

I can go back and play bunch of ps2 games. Now my only question is are we gonna be able to play disk based games or not

But this is exciting nonetheless

Gta trilogy
Bully
Warriors
Socom
Timesplitter

And so many more

remixx1163077d ago

Klonoa 2 lutenia veil.....please I need this.

also socom 2, dark cloud 2 and ssx 3 would all be great.

Hellsvacancy3077d ago

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004, one of the funnest mulitplayer games I played when I was younger

ZombieKiller3076d ago

All the ones I already own would be awesome. I still have them. I have a BC PS3 (60gb) but would love these games on the very fast PS4 with that awesome controller.

I would REALLY like it if I could play my PS3 games on here though. Hell, I would even buy an app that emulates the games.

If I had to choose though, I'd say SOCOM II....god I miss that game.
I'd say the MGS games too but I have the collection.

Drithe3076d ago

How about letting us use our own ps2 discs and decide for ourselves?

Snookies123078d ago

I'd love to play Ace Combat 4 and 5 again... Those games were amazing.

meatnormous3077d ago

Just bought ace combat 6 used in hopes it will be compatible on the one soon. I would like to see ps1 emulation as well to get the entire ace combat series except 6 on the ps4.

TWB3077d ago

You bought a used game without even knowing if Sony allows playing disc based games (even though its sounding more and more like they are going to release classics on PS4 like they did on the PS3.)

Cool that you found a game you really used to like but... Im not sure about Sony allowing disc based emulation.

They didnt allow any on PS3 which does have a PS2 emulator with sort of poor compatibility but its locked from standard users. Its only being used for the classics.

meatnormous3077d ago

I bought a used game for the Xbox 360 to hopefully play on my Xbox one. Also the ps3 did have disc based backward compatibility on the ps3 with the 20gb and 60gb models at launch. The 80gb model later on could play most ps2 games through software emulation. Thanks for the disagree without really reading what I wrote.

DarkOcelet3078d ago

Dark Cloud 1/2, Dragon Quest VIII, Final Fantasy XII, Rule Of Rose, Haunting Ground etc etc etc

fenome3077d ago

No doubt, screw picking and choosing!!

TrollityTroll3077d ago

I found the controls in Rule of Rose very poor (still completed it 100% though)
But Haunting Ground, that game was a masterpiece that was tragically overlooked. What an amazing game!
I heard they were supposed to be remastering it for PS3 but then everything went quiet.
Would be one of the few games I'd play again given the opportunity.

-Foxtrot3078d ago (Edited 3078d ago )

Battlefront II

Howvever I'd like to see some I never got the chance to play on like Dark Cloud 2, The Warriors, Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil, XIII, The Suffering, Killer 7, Monster Hunter, Dragon Quest VIII

JEECE3077d ago

Agreed, BF1 was far superior.

DarkOcelet3077d ago

Damn!

You didn't play Dark Cloud 2 or Dragon Quest VIII? Those two games were essentials for JRPG fans. They were so effing good.

AntsPai3077d ago

Th Warriors, XIII, Killer 7 & Dragon Quest VIII damn man you got me nostalgia-ing all over the place

fenome3077d ago

For sure, my 60 gig backwards compatible PS3 just died on me so I'd love to just pop in my discs again. There's literally too many to choose from..

Davi1233077d ago

Exactly! I hope Sony aren't thinking in do the same as MS are doing, because we already know how will end. Not all games will be playable, like did happen in last gen with the PS3 and XB360.

shadowknight2033077d ago

Its been since the late life of ps2/early 360 era since I've seen the n4g comment section erupt with such excitement!
