03.05.20 | It's crazy to think it's already been two decades since the PS2's launch. But yeah, best console ever tbh. |
Dewinged
03.05.20 | It's crazy, fond memories, I still have mine somewhere. I started with the first Playstation, and I remember how you could just bring it to a shop to get it chipped to play copied games. Good times. |
Gallantin
03.05.20 | Never had a PS2 but thankfully a lot of its classics are easily playable on modern consoles so I didn't totally miss out. |
Keyblade
03.05.20 | best library ever prob. legendary system |
TabulaRasa6
03.05.20 | Damn. No Metal Gear Solid 2 or 3, Silent Hill 2 or 3, and KH 1, Re:COM, and 2.
But I'm not complaining. Hahaha Agreed with Keyblade for potential best game library. Great to see the anniversary celebrated here. |

03.05.20 | Dammit this makes me feel so old. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater or die. |
Funeralopolis
03.05.20 | I'm replaying final fantasy X at the moment. One of the best games ever, such great world building. |
zakalwe
03.05.20 | When it came out I was going to draw my gaming days to a close as I was thinking on a regular basis ‘I’m too old for this nonsense’
20yrs later I still give the odd new release a bash and will probably buy a ps5 like the sad cunt I am. |

Tundra
03.06.20 | also PS2 had the best start-up music in gaming history, the most nostalgic sound that ever was |
Morningrise767
03.06.20 | PS1 and Gameboy Colour start-ups are also extremely nostalgic for me |
samwise2000

03.06.20 | you ever play blood will tell? i was lucky enough to own it back in the day
i need to finish final fantasy 10 and persona 4 fuck |
ChoccyPhilly
03.06.20 | Ratchet and clank series fuck yes. I basically worship that series |
Demon of the Fall
03.06.20 | Ratchet & Clank games are awesome yeah. I spent far too much of my PS2 life playing Timesplitters, can’t even hazard a guess at how many hours I put into that series.
20 years though? Damn. |
Zig
03.06.20 | It's been a long time. |
Scheumke
03.06.20 | Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Shadow of the Colossus, GTA San Andreas. Good times. For me the best console of all time remains the SNES though, with PS4 coming out very strong here I have to say. |
botb
03.06.20 | Real weeb vg taste hours who up |
ChoccyPhilly
03.06.20 | You just don't get the kind of storylines that you used to get back in the 3d platformer PS2 era.
Looking back, r&c was honestly genius in its commentary of capitalism |
Rawmeeth38
03.06.20 | Vice City, Tony Hawk Underground 2 & Star Wars Battlefront 2 were my shit |

03.07.20 | Ape Escape fuckin slapped too |
Source
03.07.20 | never played the sequels but liked the first one as a young lad |
Sinternet
03.07.20 | when i think of the absolute best games ever for the ps2 i have a hard time thinking of any other console that could be seen as better
i honestly think the industry would make a killing remastering and porting over those games and i wish they would |
Source
03.07.20 | n64 gives it a run for its money, and i'm not much of a nintendo fan |
Casavir
03.07.20 | My first console and still one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite. |
naughtcturnal
03.07.20 | War of the Monsters split-screen matches |
R4zor3dge
03.07.20 | Guilty Gear was my shit back in the day!
I'm also playing Nocturne right now. It's pretty cool.
Glad to see that you mentioned Disgaea. I don't hear many people talk about it. |
Saros
03.07.20 | I always had a soft spot for the Disgaea series. I'm not really into the whole "grind to level 999 to deal thousands of damage" or whatever absurd level it is, but the stories, characters and general SRPG gameplay were enough to keep me hooked. |
R4zor3dge
03.07.20 | Same. I loved the lighthearted story of the first one. I played the sequel years ago but didn’t beat it. I didn’t think it was bad though. Maybe I’ll get around to it one of these days. |
