Okay, first off the games I already own:

Disgaea Afternoon of Darkness for PSP (although not PS2, putting it up here because it completely removes any reason to own Hour of Darkness)

Final Fantasy X (NO WAI!)

Final Fantasy XII (Ya rly)

Tales of the Abyss (Awesome, awesome game)

Kingdom Hearts 1+2 (Don't care about them to be honest)

Jak 2 and Jak 3 (Awesome action games)

Xenosaga 1 (eh, terrible pacing, otherwise good)

Dragon Quest VIII

Dark Cloud 2 (enjoyable)

Metal Gears Solid 3: Snake Eater (the oddball of my collection)


Okay, so that aside. Now there are a few things to consider. I will be renting games from gamefly (so no due dates). Nothing big, but if the title is VERY obscure, it won't be on there. But very rarely that will happen. Second, I cannot play any games will frontal nudity. That means no God of War (since it does have frontal nudity for two sidequests IIRC). Oh, and I like RPGs and do not care much for stealth shooters (or shooters in general). Anyways, here are the games I plan on renting for the PS2:


Persona 3
Radiata Stories
Shadow of the Colossus
Ratchet and Clank (and sequels)
Valkyrie Profile 2
ICO
Odin Sphere
Rogue Galaxy
Dark Cloud
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Shadow Hearts
Shadow Hearts: Covenent
Shadow Hearts: From the New World
Digital Devil Saga
Digital Devil Saga 2
Xenosaga 2
Xenosaga 3
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner
Atelier Aris 1-3
Disgaea 2

I also tried Okami, but didn't like it for whatever reason. May try it agian when the Wii version comes out.

So, aside from those games, are there any PS2 gamse you would recommend?

My PS2 went ignored for the most part since I got it very late, and even then played very few games on it. It isn't until recently I started to pay attention to it

Naaaaaa nanananana na na naKATAMARI DAMACYYYYYY

God Hand

Those are the only two games that come to mind that you don't already have listed. :P Well, there's Metal Gear Solid 2.

[Noctiluca]

Must reply before somebody says God of War!

You could try Devil May Cry 3 if you're into action games. Besides showing off Dante's tits, there's no nudity in it...I think.

Silent Hill 2 and 3? :3

Tales of Legendia is really good too. It gets bashed for not having voice acting in the second part and long battles, but it has one of the best casts of characters. Except for Shirley, she can go off and die or something.

[Ashley Schovitz]

I see no GTA in your collection and that's very bad get the GTA trilogy pack for 29.99 just $10 a game, OMG! Tekken 5 is pretty good as are SSX tricky and Arc the Lad Twilight of the Spirits too.

[Shoeberto]

Katamari Damacy is a good suggestion.

The Jak series is fantastic, and if you liked them you may like the Ratchet and Clank series. They're somewhat similar.

We <3 Katamari.

GTA San Andreas if you like the whole sandbox game type games...

Devil May Cry 3 if you wan't a challenge. A Worth it one <3

No and no. It takes all of the advancements made by Tales of Symphonia and throws them away. I don't even see how Legendia can be considered PLAYABLE after playing Abyss.
