Meme platform.
The Gamecube was infinitely superior
>>323031729
how so?
>>323031048
RIP the last good playstation
>>323031958
Better hardware
Better games
No shovelware
Melee
>>323031958
Better game library.
More powerful hardware.
The PS2 only benefited from having a better controller. but that was it pretty much.
>>323032113
>melee
i vastly prefer the selection of fighting games on the PS2
>shovelware
not really a negative. not like a big amount of crap games reduced the amount of good games
>better games
that is very subjective, i think MGS2 and 3 are better than any game on gamecube
>better hardware
only real point

Shut the fuck up already
Haunting ground or Project Zero? wich one is better?
Sure thing, OP. I love my PS2 to a point it's almost embarrassing.
I've moved since taking this picture and got a couple of titles more, so all I need to rearrange my collection and take a new one at some point.
I was recommended to get Onimusha in last thread I was in and so I did. Anything else, besides Onimusha sequels of course?
>>323034920
No idea about Haunting Ground, but Project Zero is excellent.

>>323034920
Haunting Ground for:
>Clock Tower style of gameplay
>retard giant who becomes old really quick
>intense psychological story
>AI controlled dog companion
>sweet tits
Project Zero for:
Frankly. Get this game and its sequels. The series is fucking awesome.
>>323035271
I greatly dislike your organizational skills
It's a no from me.
Friendly reminder that you can softmod your ps2 by installing freemcboot on your memcard, or even just go as simply as ordering a modded memcard online.
>can connect your ps2 to your pc or laptop and boot ISO files off your hard drive
>can connect your ps2 to an external (or internal hdd depending on the ps2 console you have) and play games straight off it
>can even boot games off flashdrives though loading times are a bit slower
Also, friendly remidner #2 to ignore bootyblasted NGC kiddies
>B-BUT GAME CUBE DOESNT HAVE SHOVELWARE

>I greatly dislike your organizational skills
How would you do it?
Getting these two todayI got god hand for a really good price with everything , now it's more than retail used
>>323036970
god hand is pretty great.
>>323036970
Also, jap cover for Seek and destroy is way better
>>323036162
>AI controlled dog companion
I'm not entirely sure what to think of this.
AI companions are majority of the time horrible and now you have one that's supposed to act like a dog?
>>323035271
>MGS2/3
>No Substance/Subsistence version
>DMC3 but no Special Edition
It's like you're building this collection for hipster cred instead of actually playing the games. Be honest how many of those games have you actually played?
>tfw never knew there are still servers up for RE Outbreak and .hack and other games
>>323037752
80% of them honestly. The most I've bought and played at the release. Old fuck here.
>It's like you're building this collection for hipster cred
>full backwards compatibility
>easy as fuck to softmod
a bit biased but
>bemani games released up until 2009
I gotta put the money on a DAO sometime soon. I'm rustier than a motherfucker.

Hewie is such a good dog though. AI acts pretty naturally most of the time.
>>323038749
When does she get knotted? Also why is this game so expensive?
>>323037572
The dog AI is fine. The dog follows your instructions and never really wanders around on its own. If it does something stupid it's because you put it in danger and told it to do something stupid
>>323036751
Organize by genre

Thanks anon
I was a poorfag as a kid but I recently got a controller and a non-shit PC so I'm gonna get emulating and see what I missed out on
>>323040713
>I was a poor fag
>was a poor fag
>was
>emulating not buying console + games retail
>>323040991
I don't see what you're implying since you need a $6000 dollarinoos PC to emulate anything.
>>323041085
Not at all
>>323040991
>retail
What retail stores sell technology 15 years old?
Why the fuck are the raidou games so expensive? I thought Atlus did reprints of all their ps2 games. Shouldn't they be cheaper by now?
>>323041673
They're like $25 brand new
>>323035271
>no silent hill shattered memories
Pathetic.
>>323041910
Have that for Wii. Not a fan.
>>323034575
Thanks for this anon.
None of the new games coming out look interesting to me and like most that are out, on release they will probably be a buggy shitty mess until they are patched months after launch.
Im going back to the ps2 while the modern shit sorts itself out, and needed a list of all the stuff that I missed at the time
Going to buy a fat PS2 and mod it with a HDD. Anyone ever try it? Is it pretty easy?
>>323042552
>while the modern shit sorts itself out
What Wipeout game(s) should I get?
>>323042552
>while the modern shit sorts itself out
don't think there are enough ps2 games for that
>>323042818
XG 3
>>323031048
1/2
>>323043380
2/2
>>323042648
Havent tried it but from what i read it doesnt seem too bad but you do need to get a Sony PS2 network adapter for the fat, freemcboot and Open ps2 loader
>>323035271
Colosseum: Road to Freedom is pretty nice.
>>323043487
>we'll never know what game is in the middle
>>323045420
SSX 3
>>323045748
the one to the right
>>323045748
this is correct
>>323046465
this shall remain a mystery
>>323046465
Based on the games being in alphabetical order and the length of the title, possibilities are:
SSX on Tour
SSX Tricky
Steamboy
Stolen
>>323047470it's stolen, wich is a big steaming pile of shit.
>>323047627
So, what you're trying to say is that the money you paid for the game could've very well bestoleninstead?
>>323038832
>AI
>never acts on his own
>strictly follows given instructions
>if it makes mistakes, it's only because you made it make stuff that lead to those mistakes
So, basically is not an AI.
>>323044202
>but you do need to get a Sony PS2 network adapter for the fa
If you can connect your PS2 to your modem/router, or directly to a PC with a crossover cable, you don't strictly need to have the network adapter, you can safely load(at full speed, not USB 1.0 speed) games off a HDD connected to your PC.
