Dreamcast99:
starwars battlefront 2
thrillville
dark cloud
dark cloud 2
rogue galaxy (essentially dark cloud 3)
Shadow of the colossus
Nocturne series
AxelSteelBMX:
Go get yourself some Katamari Damacys (Damacies?). Also another vote for Shadow of the Colossus. Also Gitaroo Man. Beyond Good & Evil. Mega Man X8. Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3. Some of the PS2 Resident Evils, if you're into those (as a Resident Evil fan, it's my opinion that PS2 had the weakest RE lineup).
Head of Desserts:
Jak series
Ratchet and Clank series
Gran Turismo series
GTA series
Metal Gear Solid series
God of War series
Devil May Cry series
Timesplitters 2
Twisted Metal series
Katamari
Sly Cooper series
Indigo Prophecy
Odin Sphere
Dark Cloud series
Final Fantasy series
Resident Evil series
Silent Hill series
Fatal Frame series
Beyond Good and Evil
Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Zone of the Enders series
God Hand

I've heard a bit about this series and it's meant to be really good, they're quite expensive I think. Damn these Australian prices!
--- Quote from: Kriegspire on November 21, 2013, 09:46:28 AM ---I remember when I used to hang out with friends at a local game shop there'd be a bunch of .hack titles out there. Pretty cheap too.
I've never had a PS2 though, so I wasn't interested. I'd probably pick those up now if that shop still existed.
They're supposedly a great RPG series.

They're also quite expensive haha, hopefully someone has them cheap :) I remember now playing a demo of the game back in the day and I remember it being pretty interesting :) Cheers

It's made by Enix so if your into the Final Fantasy series this may be one to look into.
On a side note - I'm a huge fan of the kingdom hearts series as well!

Oh yeah, I'm a huge FF Fanboy. When they merged with Enix I pretty much bought whatever they put out. DQ8 is super good, it actually turned me onto the whole DQ series :) If you ever get the chance I'd recommend it. It's a beautiful game but I remember it took me 100+ hours to complete everything.

I've heard quite a lot of good things about that game, that's the one that's bundled with Ico as a HD release isn't it? I remember my friend playing it and it looked crazy.

Ah I almost forgot haha. I picked up Battlefront 1 not too long ago and forgot all about the second one :) I remember dark cloud being on the demo disc back in like 2002 or something and I think the second was released as Dark Chronicle out here for some reason? I'm not too sure but they're definitely games I want to get :)
I'll have to look into the Nocturne series as well :)

Wow that's a huge list, cheers man!
I've got the Jak series and the Ratchet and Clank series. There's a few series in amongst your list that I've got bits and pieces for but don't actually have all the games. I've heard God Hand was meant to be really good :)
