play the second ratchet and clank, the first one is passable.

final fantasy x is a shit show, but xii is awesome, probably my favorite of the series.

try and get the subsistence version of MGS:3. the free camera really makes for a better game.

and try virtua fighter 4 evo. best fighting games hands down. LOVE IT. i still know all the button combos.

i'll try and think of more games, i loved the ps2.
I'd heard about Devil May Cry 2 being not so great but not about Onimusha 2, i'll skip past them both, thanks. Is the fourth Onimusha good? I heard it's a departure for the series, which can be a good or bad thing. The first Onimusha seems to be going for cheap.

I was unsure on Ratchet and Clank, so i'll do just that. How is Jak and Daxter? I don't know a great deal about that series.

Isn't XII the MMO, or am I getting them mixed up?

Tried to get MGS3 Subsistence but it's selling for retarded prices, I hear the 3rd game talked about as the best so i'll get the normal edition anyway.

I've got the Virtua Fighter series well covered on other consoles - been a fan since the first one with it's triangle characters that could poke your eye out. I think the series is the perfect balance between the depth and required skill of Street Fighter and the lovely 3D graphics of Tekken.

Shinobi (this game isn't for everyone, but I loved it, actually, it made me cry it was so hard, but I loved it)
Viewtiful Joe
Xenosaga series
Zone of Enders 2

All good games that are worth your time. where did the years go that i owned a ps2?
I'm not really a sim guy when it comes to vehicles - i'm a After Burner/Burnout kind of guy. I like it when things go fast and explode, rather than when I have to adjust the tire pressure.

What the hell is Disgaea? It's a Final Fantasy thing, right?

I've got Blood Money on my pc, easily the best of the series - more puzzle game than action game.

I'm not super familiar with Jak or Metal Arms, feel free to drop knowledge.

I loved the Shinobi games on my mega drive (hell, I loved the comics in Sonic The Comic), is it anything like those. I've pretty much taken on Ninja Gaiden for my ultra-hard ninja fix.

Got Viewiful Joe 1 and 2 on my cube, so much fun.

Xenosaga is a game I always hear about but i've never tried, I'll give it a look.

I played ZOE to death on friend's consoles, I really want a new one to hurry up and come out.

Thanks for all the help.

I know what you mean, a bad checkpoint system can kill your enjoyment of a game. I was playing Wolverine recently and dying on the boss battles would make me walk to the area again, fight some small guys and sit through a cut scene before I could try again.
