I played dragon quest 8 almost a thousand hours. Never beat the final dragovian boss. Was like an hour long fight. Lol. Now I'm trying to beat all the dragon quest games. Expensive stuff. Another great video!! Keep em coming
I never liked how the PS2 looked, I was a dreamcast guy. BUT, the variety of really good games on PS2 was crazy. It was a time where companies could still take risks and possibly not go belly up.
I love the Dreamcast as well. But, I agree with you about the variety on the PS2. I don't think any other console had the wide range of genres and off-the-wall experiences that the PS2 did. I really appreciate your support!
I got nearly 950 games on PS2 for my collection and 300 for PS4, I still have rule of rose for PS2 in the seal still and it was only £20 at the time in 2006 crazy what the prices are nowadays. 🙏♥️
@@RNGGamerYT wow that's shocking, that's the equivalent in British pounds would be £3940.65. I actually found this copy I had in my attic and kept it well looked after and that's nearly 20years wow! 🌟♥️
Thanks! I know people love these videos. They just take forever to film. Also, I'm spreading them all out because I'll eventually get to the end of them, and I don't want to do that too early!
@@RNGGamerYT it's a bit late now, but maybe in the future you could go by genre and get a bit in depth into what you like or know about them. Thanks for the content have a great weekend
@Ji99i3 I've thought of doing that. That's how Metal Jesus does it. In a way, I think his way is better because it goes faster and is more organized. On the other hand, I feel like that turns the video into a presentation about all of the cool stuff I own rather than a conversation I'm having with the audience. I don't have a lot of free time or good editing skills to put together a Metal Jesus style video. So, I have to rely on my strengths. Which I've been told is that I am relatable, friendly, knowledgeable, and able to talk about any topic. People say they feel like I'm talking WITH them rather than AT them. Maybe one day, I'll be able to get an editor who can help me put the videos together in a more conducive format, and I can just focus on interacting with you guys 😄
It was a really fun game, I think it was just single player but, the devs put alot of love into it and it shows on screen. Also a great PS2 game that didn't get enough love was Mercenaries 1&2. Ive yet to find a game that scratches that particular itch for me.
Amazing collection! There’s so many diverse games in the PS2 library, that I tend to forget what other games I need to buy. Thank you for providing some recommendations!
You're so welcome! It's one of my favorite systems to collect for, and I agree that it has a ton of variety. Maybe more variety than ANY system... Thank you for commenting!
@@RNGGamerYT It's always great to find out about new games. I love collection videos because there might be a special game that really is underrated and fun. ^_^
I have 200 something on ps2.i could go on with game collectors.my wife doesn't liked old graphics i still liked them i grow up on sega genesis beyond and good evil is expensive on game cube
Fantastic collection of games so far - looking forward to Part 2. Lots of good games you showed, some expensive ones too! PS2 for me was an odd time for gaming and it ended up being more of a dvd player and PS1 gameplay device for me at college through backwards compatibility with limited actual PS2 games at the time but pretty sure FF X was one of the main memories I had from the console of a game I really enjoyed all the way through. It’s a great system to revisit now with so many games I never had the chance to play - but getting pricey to collect for the non common games that’s for sure. Hope some of those shooters come up for you in the backlog soon 🙌🏾
Thanks for your incredible comments and for being a channel member! I think everyone used their PS2 more as a DVD player. We did for sure. I'm also glad to see that you had such fond memories of FFX. It was super underappreciated for the longest time. Collecting for the system is getting pretty expensive. It's always kind of been that way for the rarer games. But at least the common games are still cheap, unlike the gamecube. 😅
I really liked 'Defender'. I think it may be one of those games that's of the era, where you had to be there when it first released to really enjoyn it. It also helps if you're familiar with the original arcade games. It also benefits greatly from a turbo-fire enabled gamepad. The XBOX version of 'Defender' is one of the games you can add your own custom soundtracks with. I REALLY wish they continued that feature with other consoles. Custom soundtracks make 'Fusion Frenzy' one of the best partygames ever, IMO.
I'm very familiar with the arcade version of Defender, but I just couldn't get on with the remake. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it, though. It's cool to know about adding your own soundtracks. I never think about that stuff. Thanks for watching
@RNGGamerYT heard its good though. Probably not the first to think of it but I thought about how to get through some of my backlog and decided to do an alphabetical challenge. I'm on f now but playing final fantasy 15 so will have to wait
Wonderful first part of the collection man. I remember buying fatal frame 3 for $25 new off Amazon at some point. Unfortunately I sold it a while back to help pay rent. You and me have a similar taste of games it seems. Though I actually enjoyed ar tonelico, but then again I love weeb shit lol. You have got me wanting to show my collection off (though it's nowhere near as good as yours) I'd do it on a second channel. 43:50
I'm glad we have similar tastes! I don't mind weeb stuff, but you have to approach it with a sense of humor! Go ahead and start up that second channel! I'll come watch
When I get my PS2,I will try to buy a pelican codebreaker v10 disc to beat more video games and buy the games that have really good cheat codes for example I will buy games with codes like infinite health and infinite ammo and one hit deaths for enemies
@@RNGGamerYT I am terrible at video games but I like PS2 so it will be good for me to use a pelican codebreaker to beat the games that I want with cheat codes
@@RNGGamerYT yeah but you have all quality stuff. You got to remember most of mine (at least for now) is shelf filler. Still a fun system to collect for!
Thanks! You're the only one to have ever complimented my editing skills... or lack thereof. Part 2 and 3 definitely have WAY more interesting and rare games. I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Pretty solid collection. I've got a large amount of them and given most a go. The Hobbit game is actually meant to be pretty good. Think its a zelda clone. One think I like about being in the PAL territory is that my copy of haunting ground only cost me £15 lol
Thanks! If you think this is solid, wait until parts 2 and 3 😅 there are some games in there that put $400 game to shame. I'm envious that you guys get Haunting Ground so cheaply... I'm envious of a lot of things in the PAL territories. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
seeing beyong good & evil makes me wonder again when the sequel will come out it has been years since they announced it. also the bombastic game is a game i only played on a demo collection disc i always wondered what its name was cause its been over a decade since i played that now i gonna look for it to have it in my collection. also about the crash bandicoot games on ps2 you should try twinsanity its my personal favorite on the system. great collection so far!
I wonder about Beyond Good & Evil 2 as well. I fear they waited too long to continue the story, and the younger gamers don't know or care about it... and the older ones have moved on. I'm glad you rediscovered bombtastic! I've had a lot of comments about it this morning! People really seem to love it. There are going to be 2 more videos in this PS2 series. You haven't seen anything yet!
This is a awesome ps2 collection. I'm jealous and I've also been waiting to see this collection video for a long time. I can see you have no Ape escape 2 or 3. Both are amazing 3d platformers. My entire game collection is just a bit bigger than your ps2 selection
The Ape Escape games have eluded me forever! I'm looking for them, though! A 200-game collection is nothing to scoff at. I'm sure it's filled with tons of great memories and experiences!
Dot Hack gu is one big story split into 3 games with the remaster on ps4, Xbox one, and switch includes a epilogue chapter that wasn't in the ps2 version. I highly recommend them if you like action rpgs and mmos
@@RNGGamerYToh it is. My entire youtube channel is dedicated to my passion for Playstation games which I primarily collect for. I got almost all of my childhood ps1 and ps2 games in my collection. I'm missing like around 10 games and all are cheap. My content aint the best here on RU-vid but I got a lot of passion and working to improve
@@RNGGamerYT I have been using filmora go since I record everything on my phone. I'm working on a Mario Wonder Video today , sharing my first impressions. Gonna make it a voice over with gameplay. Never did that style before.
Sorry you are kidding yourself if you think the ps2 is the most popular console of all time. Big library yes but not most loved. But we do love your channel ❤
Thanks for loving the channel. I was more mentioning that the PS2 is the best selling console of all time. More people have bought it than any other console.
Fantastic collection buddy , Oh yeah and that bloodrayne movie was awful hahaha. Also clock tower 3 is really good. It plays pritty much like an OG resi or silent hill game it is nothing like the first 2 "There point and click games" PS2 had so many awesome games on it and a good lot of them you showed i never even heard of :D
@@RNGGamerYT I loved GTA 3 and Vice City because I’m an 80s kid, music and setting! I never finished any GTA games, I won’t buy anymore, I never competed any, I get stuck on a main mission and give up.
Pretty sure you said previously that youtube shorts aren't your thing, but figured I'd share an idea. You mentioned your backlog rule that ensures shmups get picked... What if you had a short video explaining how your games are picked. ...or another one could be funny short where Ring lady is telling you the rules she will force on you like Jigsaw horror movies. Might get some subscribers to click through and come watch your playing the backlog videos. Just a thought. I think you are on to something with the Ring lady thing.
... those are some really great ideas. And the Jigsaw idea is... perfect. You've given me a lot to think about. I watch a lot of these youtube videos on how to get better. Of course, youtube shorts are the big topic of the moment. I found a couple of channels that really went into their experiences with youtube shorts and they both got something like 140k subscribers in a month just from doing shorts. But they quickly realized that the viewership on their main videos wasn't really going up. And, in fact, the videos were performing worse than they usually did. The reason was because the people who subbed from the shorts were only watching their longer videos for a few seconds, which was killing their retention. So, the youtube algorithm thought the video was bad...which made them show it to fewer people... and so on an so forth. People who watch long videos on youtube also watch youtube shorts. People who come to youtube for shorts DON'T watch longer videos. Right now, I average about the same number of views on my videos as other youtubers with 3-5x my number of subscribers. I think the reason for this is because the quality of my subs is really high. You guys actually like my content and actually want to watch it... and that's the way I want to keep it. But... I'm definitely going to kick around the ideas you mentioned with RiNG. I want to find a way to make it work.
@@RNGGamerYT ah, interesting. Good points, makes sense. Well I would even be interested in a regular video that explains how your games are picked. I think I pieced together how it works with the stars you earn and stuff but I'd watch a summary video... Or maybe you already have that and I should go look deeper in your channel.
@michaelfoley3075 the second video I ever did explains how the whole system works! It's absolutely terrible and is just a spreadsheet with me talking. I should make a skit video about it...
@JDL1885 thanks! I'm glad you like the videos. Honestly, I'm not sure if Ace Combat is my kind of game or not. I haven't played many dogfight style simulation games. I'll be on the lookout for them!
Amazing collection sir! I personally would have a very hard time playing anytbing that isnt ps4 or newer! Games just werent as good i dont care what anyone says! Mario 3 or zelda or days gone on ps5 lol. Come on. Days gone absolutely destroys either one of those gold stand games without a freaking doubt! Its actually boring playing old school games when your a ps5 owner! You can pretend they are still fun but jumping over a turtle in mario compared to blowing up hordes of zombies isnt even in question! Lol. I still love the collection even though id never play 80 or 90 percent! Haha
As long as you're passionate about games and love them, that's all that matters to me! I play as many modern games as retro games, and I don't really have a preference. It's all enjoyable to me. I'm glad you liked the video! There are equal parts modern and retro on this channel. So, you should be able to find some PS5 stuff for sure.
Ohh don't get me wrong I enjoy watching you play the old school. Just not my thing haha! Angry video game nerd probably wouldn't be angry if he was raised with a ps5 lol.
@PowerlifterRich yeah! Honestly, I do. I played and reviewed over 100 games this year, and a 27 year old game is in the running for the best game I've played all year
let’s see if you have the dot hack series …. 3:59 OK mate, listen! it’s impossible to play all games in your collection. if anyone makes fun of you because “lol you haven’t played all your games” tell them Gray from the internet says “go to hell” OK? 👍 OK. edit: you have the dot hack gu. good. but the first 4 games are not remastered…yet! maybe the new .hack counter thingy on their website is the remaster! that would be great cuz the ps2 original ones are expensive as hell
The XIII remake is considered one of the worst remakes out there. They completely changed the art style for a more realistic one. Being the cel shaded graphics was the thing that set the game apart, there was so longer any reason to seek the game out. Stick with the original.
@@RNGGamerYT I tried to play one of the new final fantasy games, in tutorial once I found out I could leap backwards up 30 feet I gave up, my favorite JRPG games are Grandia 1-2, Final Fantasy 9. Dragons Quest 11 is amazing and Bravely Default 2 is a must play for you!
