PS2Home: "This is one of those games that helped move the PS2 away from blockiness and low-res textures and into a more wholly satisfying territory."
From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "
All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.
Thats just off the top of my head that i would play immediately, still so many more though that id love.
MGS, Silent Hill etc are no brainers, but you earned my thumbs up for our boi Croc. I talk about him all the time, it's an honour to find another man of culture.
Hahaha yea was one of my very first games i owned on ps1 as a child, great memories!!
Love to hear there other people out there that enjoyed the gem of a game that is croc 👌
Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.
Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.
But yea theres so many games in sony catalogue we coukd be here all day listing titles.
Hopefully we all get the ganes we are hoping for.
RDR2 for me they can boost that up to 60fps with better graphic settings than last gen
Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy
Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk
Eurogamer: "PlayStation 2 is 20 years old today; 4th March 2000 is the date of its Japanese release, although it wouldn't make it to the West until the end of the year. And what a way to kick off a new millennium - with a futuristic games console and (probably) a DVD of The Matrix. At 155 million units sold, PS2 is the best-selling home console of all time, and during its time it enjoyed a hegemony over console gaming that hasn't been seen since. Part of that was down to its trailblazing predecessor and Sony's canny branding - classy, cool, and above all grown-up. Part of that was because it played the new DVD format relatively cheaply. But most of it was down to the console's astonishing software library, which matched quantity with quality all the way down. So many all-time greats made their debut on this machine, and so many creative, left-field gems too. So it seemed like the only fair way to celebrate PS2's birthday was by running down 30 of our favourite games for it."

"Some say a racing game is only as good as its tracks. Gran Turismo's had some masterpieces, and we've gone and ranked the best."
This and the Gran Turismo 4 was the best game on the PS2 with beautiful visuals.
I got 100% completion on this baby, using a pad!
my first PS2 game. I didn't have a memory card so I would either have to start career mode over or leave my PS2 on.
Whats the point of a review to a game everyone's already played and the ones who haven't won't play.
Loved this game so much. I'm a little burned out on GT right now though as I bought GT6 day one and have barely played it.
I never thought that would happen.
