I've been really in the mood for old games and have played through a lot of shit from my childhood on the Megadrive/genesis, ps1 and snes.

Started emulating the ps2 and most games finally seem playable so recommend me some god tier PS2 games /v/

so far I have downloaded..
Dark cloud (never played before)
Dragon quest 8 (never played)
Evil twin (totally under rated)
Headhunter (loved it on the DC)
Shifters (got it for £3 years ago)
Haunting ground (never played)
Persona 3 (never played)
Dot hack (owned em all.. sold em n regret)

Bonus points for 3d platformers, weird JRPGs and games with an interesting/unusual setting/plot
>>
>>319784294
Also general ps2/emulation thread I guess
>>
Try nocturne or Ratchet and Clank
>>
Pretty much all of the Shin Megami Tensei games on the PS2 are god-tier
>>
>>319784294
Dmc3
Sh2 and 3
Jak 1 and 2
>>
>>319785334
downloading RnC now, the Jak games are supposed o be good but I heard the second one is a pain in the ass, anyone give me details?
>>
>>319785508
I shall find a download, thanks
>>319785568
Love silent hill, worried things like DmC will run too slow to play but it's worth a shot.

Jak looks cool but >>319785598

>>319784294
Play Dark Cloud OP. There are only weeaboo faggots and 12 yr olds in this thread.

I really enjoy it's unique take on RPGs
Nice strategic, and challenging action
Cool Town building plot

Heard it was great, do I need to play the first to understand the second? Heard the second game is amazing.
>>
>>319784294
MGS
DMC
SMT
Silent Hill
>>
Well Ratchet & Clank is one of the few game series with not a single bad mainline game, with every game marking an improvement or change. R&C 1-3 and Deadlocked(US)/Gladiator(EU) are all highly recommended. Some would argue they're the best games on the system. And they definitely are the best Western games on the system.

>>>319785598
>he's emulating

I've got bad news for you...

The R&C games are completely unplayable on PCSX2 due to using technical trickery to actually get the games running the PS2. Your only options are the PS3 remasters or the PS2 originals.
>>
>>319784294
Evil twin is fun, never got it to emulate very well though

>>319785568
>>319785598
The Jak games are great, the second has a few hard parts, but if you're a grown-up and have the mental capacity and patience to try some different strategies if you get stuck it shouldn't be an issue. It's the best game in the series as far as I'm concerned, and the bosses are really fun.

>>319785873
Was never unto gundam, though mech games are welcome
>>319786129
Played MGS in the HD pack, enjoyed em all.
Downloading SMT and silent hill, i'll have to see if my pc can cope with DMC

Any good guides for getting the PS" emulator to work OK?
no matter what i do, it runs in poor conditions
>>
>>319786150
That's cool, I shall grab the HD ps3 games then, heard the vita ports are shit which is a shame.

>>319786301
Evil twin runs like shit in the first area for me then I get 60 fps after that. I might just be lucky for now though it could run like ass later on.

Oh ok, cool. I don't mind hard games. The way people talked about it, it was totally unfair and unplayable
>>
>>319786390
OP here, whats your specs? They tend to be the most important aspect before anything else.

Other than that, check the compatibility guides, some games just wont run and others are "playable" which means.. the sound is fucked etc but you could finish them.

I'll post my setup next post

Is there a problem with you getting the PCSX2 1.3 version?
>>
>>319784294
Zone of the enders 1 & 2 are pretty good, real pretty with upscaling too

Dark cloud is shit man.
>>
>>319784294
just wait for the PS2 emulation on PS4.

stop pirating shit faggot

Fuck off Talesbabby

>>319785873
Name? Is it just zeta gundam
>>
>>319788718
Dude what? Try just someone with taste in rpg's. The first one is an empty ugly mess with systems that get in the way of actually playing and enjoying the game. Second one is way better.
>>
>>319784294

I've been on a real Armored Core binge lately. Basically everything on the PS2 is worth some of your time, though you can do without stuff like Ninebreaker.

Odin Sphere and GrimGrimoire are incredible.

Don't bother with Odin Sphere, a good version will be coming out soon

Obligatory : Yakuza 2, my personal favorite game of all time.

My other suggestions based on
>weird JRPGs and games with an interesting/unusual setting/plot

Baroque
Shadow Hearts 1
SMT3 Nocturne
Ace Combat 4/5/0
Front Mission 5 (eng patched)
Shadow Tower Abyss (eng patched)
Kings Field the Ancient City
Killer 7
Gungrave 2

Each one of these games are either good, or average with an unusual setting or gimmick, which makes them worth playing.
>>
>>319787525
OP here, whats up with my icons? lol?
I thought my version was the latest honestly, seems to run everything fine
>>319787903
Played the hd collection, had a blast
>>319788563
Yous specs seem fine, you probably just need to mess with the plugins, though AMD CPUs don't work as well for emulation (according to some dood on /v/)
>>319788675
lol no
>>
>>319789240
Okies, thank you!
>>
>>319788909
I love me some AC, only ever played AC 2/another age on ps2

>>319789149
downloadn

>>319789236
Awesome man, copied your list for further research, my aunt owned shadow hearts, I remember watching her play it
>>
>>319789236
>Shadow Tower Abyss (eng patched)

Great game but the control scheme is some next level retarded bullshit
>>
>>319789495

3 is more of the same but it does gradually evolve
>>
>>319789546
Yea it does require remapping. Safest bet is turning with shoulder buttons, but since op is using an emulator, using Joy2Key he can basically set it up to use the right analogue stick. Same applies to Kings field
>>
>>319789558
Cool, I honestly wouldn't mind if they were all the same honestly
>>
Rule of Rose is a great horror game, really Japanese, but great nonetheless.
>>
>>319790251
That's the one that was banned in some countries right?

I actually think it was banned here, underage sexual themes or some shit.
