 Posted: 12/17/03 - 00:42 Post subject: Shit, I need some suggestions for PS2/Xbox/GBA games.
|
|
|
Forgot to get some gifts for a few people, and I have to order online tonight, or I have to pay extra or they won't get here before christmas.
What are some really good PS2 or GBA games. And possibly Xbox games?
Good like, FF Tactics advanced for GBA, or Kingdom Hearts for PS2.
Thanks.

mario party 5 rocks, and any batman game you can get your hands on, they're all good. also can't go wrong with spongebob, he never puts out anything that isn't a 10/10.

Is Prince of Persia a long game? I don't want a game my little brother or older brother will beat in like 5 hours.

i think its more like 8-10 hours if you are good, but you can also unlock pop 1 and 2 in the xbox version if they were in to those games at all.

the streets of la is coming out for PS2.
the new simpsons game is supposed to be good too.
i personally recommend amplitude for the ps2 if you like music and beats. etc. it's a tough game.

It isn't for me. I don't think my brothers would like a music/dancing DDR or music making game.
Streets of LA looks lame hehe.

Xbox: World Series Baseball 2K3, Splinter Cell, Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
PS2: Final Fantasy X, Manhunt, GTA Double Pack, Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando.
GBA: Golden Sun, havn't tried Golden Sun 2 but the first one is good and I'm sure it's cheaper. The only game besides the original Super Mario advanced that I have for GBA heh...kinda feel like I waisted my money, maybe I should give some more games a shot.

Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga on the GBA is pretty decent so far. Have about 15 hours into it so far, and don't think I'm close to being done, so it's not that short of a game.
Disgaea is a great tactics/rpg type game on the PS2, have about 55+ hours into that and still have a ton of shit to do. Leveling sucks a lot more than FFT and a bit more than FFTA, but it's not horrible.

Yeah I was thinking about that. I played 2 and 3, and I hear there is either an expasion for DW3 or DW 4 that looks awesome. The only problem is the game is repetitive.

Viewtiful Joe is both cartoonish and 2d, and it is one of the best games to come out in a long time. Its pretty short though, unless you like playing the same thing while unlocking insane levels of difficulty.
Golden Sun for gba sucks. Its like a retarded kids rpg.

Capcom Vs. SNK 2 is debatably the best 2D fighter those systems have. Coming close would be GGXX. Those're two solid games.
Tekken Tag Tournament will run you a measily $20. Nothing is more fun (and hectic) than 4 player TTT. You'll need a multitap--it's worth it.
T.H.U.G. is neat, but (to me) what made Tony Hawks for PS2 really shine: internet multiplayer. The only thing is you'll notice (if you observe a few matches) lots of people use cheat devices; they never wobble; not sure if they could have fixed this for T.H.U.G., but it most definitely was apparent in THPS4. But lots of the time people are just that damn good.
There's not a single RPG on PS2 worth playing.
