PS2 Games Nobody Talks About #2 

Haha same here man, such a tune!

Tekken 2 was the first game I owned so I feel the same.

Soooo nostalgic. I just played it the other day on ps2, actually

@@wolves_blade4788 Tekken 2 is actually one of my first video game memories, I was around 3-4 years old when it was introduced to me by my dad. I just rebought Spyro the Dragon for my PS1 and Tekken 2 is on the way now with Tekken 3 lol

X-Play, tech t.v

Oh how I miss those times. That game trailers final fantasy special made my childhood man.

@@b.b.s7545 Nah, I get more Cinematech vibes.

@@DarthG33k no one asked you, I don't even know wtf that is

If you like obscure, the Mana Series is a hidden gem. I was watching this hoping "Dawn of Mana" or maybe ".//Infection" (Dot Hack) was here. Both have a cult following, but Dot Hack as a series as a whole got a bigger name from running on Toonami. The first "Mana" game is "Secret of Mana" for the SNES, which was a sequel to "Final Fantasy Adventure" for Gameboy. Secret of Mana has Mario World colored visuals, amazing music that fits the world it's building. Chrono Trigger was created from content that had to be removed from Secret of Mana when it was intended to be a disc game. Trials of Mana was also SNES, but they didn't release it here until recent years, but I played a fan translation in High School. It is less bright and cheerful, but keeps the Action RPG thing going. Legend of Mana is aesthetically SIMILAR to Secret: but the battle system, while still ARPG, takes a direction many didn't like. It's one of my favorite games, with more skill and crafting customization of any game I've played. Sword of Mana is for GBA: It is similar to the SNES Mana games but with some crafting systems borrowed from Legend. Tied for my second favorite game (with Zoids Legacy), it's a remake of Final Fantasy Adventure: But as alike to it as Mario World is to Mario 1. Children of Mana is in the same world as Dawn of Mana for PS2 I mentioned first, but takes a dungeon crawler design to it. Dawn of Mana plays more like Kingdom Hearts, with a unique battle system. It has arguably the best story, but mechanics sometimes lack polish.

The majority of the PS2's more creative and experimental games weren't from Sony though?

@@myria2834 along with ease of development" The PS2 was the hardest to develop for in the 6th gen. It was just the most popular, so devs had to deal with it.

PS4 Pro at the end of his life is much better paired with 4k HDR Sony TV with 120fps motion flow. Actually PS4 alone is much better just because Horizon Zero Down, Final Fantasy 15 and Tomb Raider 2013. If I had choice back in time whether PS4 to be launched with just those three games or PS2 with its entire catalog I would choose the PS4. Something well ahead of its time.

@@myria2834 Tell me one PS2 game better than any of the games that ive pointed out.

@@myria2834 FFX & XII better than XV? You serious, bro? X have stupid repetitive fights every few seconds and unskipable cutscenes all the way to the end. You die you watch the cutscene again. XII? It have constant difficult fights with unknown suddenly popped up enemies right in front of your nose that you can't escape from. I have both games on PS4 Pro. Those games are just not worth despite their great potential. You talking against Horizon Zero Down? That's heresy! It's the best looking game to date. I just walk around and watch on my 4k HDR Sony tv. Ive also enabled motion interpolation for 60 fps. The new TRs aren't TR actually but still for the visuals alone they are better offer than the entire catalog of PS2 except Tekken Tag 1 and DMC1. Dark Cloud dude wtf lol. I have that game too. It was on sale. I bought it just because I've always wanted to have it but back in the days I didn't have the money to get it. When I got my PS2 I was busy with other way better games. So I bought it after 2 decades to see what I've missed. That game is veeeery outdated. It's like PS1 game with visual updates. PS2s Ratchet and Clank over PS4s? You serious, bro? What are you smoking? Must be really goood. God of War 3 is better than all GOW's and PS4 have a 4k remaster. It look much better than GoW's CGs on PS2. Just imagine. And the gameplay is better also. Yakuza suffer the illness of constant and boring fights every few steps just as FFX. So you don't winning here too. Katahari Damaci never got much fame so I think that's speaking enough. I never even played that game. Okami? I have that game too. Had high expectations. On 4k and well adjusted HDR forced on the screen it looking fantastic but the game have the most crappy draw distance I've ever seen. Big things just pop up litteraly (and I mean litteraly) right in front of your nose. I didn't play Ico but still is just a boy that wondering around. Nothing special really. And the game doesn't have soundtrack. The levels are silent. And that's bad. Isn't plus. PS4 have remake of Colosus so I don't know why you pointed it out. PS2 have the outdated version. Don't try to prise 480p games over 1080/4k ones. And the PS2 games also lacking texture detail and special effects. Its like they don't have any special effects at all. Most people like you usually coming out with claims that the old games have better gameplay tho. And no. The old games doesn't offer better gameplay nor better anything. The games after 2006 are made by statistics gathered by spying on the players. The companies spied to see what gamers like and don't like so they've bet on the middle in between to satisfy everyone. Well no one can satisfy everyone but God, the games after 2006 are TOTALLY different than those before. So you better forget about PS2. It died in year 2008. Sadly we most probably won't see such a brake forward in the near future just as we saw it between 2006-2009.

Damn, not met many people aware of Gungriffon Blaze and Oni - two flawed gems but so amazing!

Gungriffon Blaze was one of my favorite PS2 titles.

I think supersonic acrobatic rocket powered battle cars was 1st😂 Like SSARPBC I literally the game RL came from😂

lol

Still is, wish it was remade with online support I'd FWI

@@gokushkameha-ha-ha9344 Evil West is the closest we'll get to something similar sadly

@@BigBenlolz Witchfire also might be a similar game too, whenever it releases...

Drive to Survive (Mashed in Europe) is one of the best sleeper hits on any console, awesome multiplayer

still a blast?

@@kidrobot. illiterate much?

@@41illusion sorry i triggered you, but you dont have to get defensive and call names

@@kidrobot. lol you pathetic trolls all predictably respond the same: "Sorry I triggered you." I made a comment regarding how fun the game was and you in all your infinite "wisdom" can't understand what somebody implies when they say they had a blast doing something. You sound about as intelligent as a rock.

Thanks Dom!

Such a solid game!

Hope you find some new games man!

Augh! Why are you still in school? It's summer!

Such a great game!

Thanks!

Totally agree, such a jolly experience!

Glad you found something new!

Thanks Leonardo!

Glad you found something new!

Thanks!

Totally agree, deserved way more attention!

😅

Such a great soundtrack!

@@thatvideogamesshow yes great game in general. The graphics are absolutely insane for 3ds. You should make a vid about amazing visuals on 3ds and here's some underrated games with them: Spider-Man edge of time Ridge racer 3D (I released an album based on it) Captain toad Airracer xeno Attack on titan Labyrinth no kanata

Such a track!

I think you might mean ChoroQ. Btw, Metal Saga is one of my favorite games, just don’t get married!

Thanks Richard!

Good ear!

I’ll second that!

Would love to see it make a comeback!

Such a solid game, it’s well worth giving a go!

I’ll second that!

One of the greats!

Glad you enjoyed the video!
