[QUOTE="Stephenls, post: 424280, member: 6782"] -=PS2 games=- [I]ICO[/I]: You're a boy with horns. You have a stick. There's a princess, and you both have to escape from a castle. The princess can talk, but you can't understand her language and she can't understand yours. Shadow-things keep trying to stop you from escaping. The story is stripped down to the bare minimum, and it works [I]perfectly[/I]. Grab ICO as soon as possible. (And it's pronounced E-KO, if you're wondering.) [I]Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2[/I]: (See description of [I]Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver[/I], below.) [I]Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty[/I]: The story is really, really stupid. And completely incoherent. But the gameplay is fun. [I]Zone of the Enders[/I]: I'm afraid I can't really recommend this one. The biggest thing it has going for it is the preview disc for MGS2:SoL that it comes packaged with. -=PSOne Games=- [I]Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver[/I]: This game is just excellent. The sequel is arguably worse, but you're not playing either one of them for the gameplay, really. It's all about the voice acting. Unlike most games, which usually have TEH WORST VOICE ACTING EVAR, the Soul Reaver series has voices that actually work. Kain, especially. And the Elder God. And if you buy Soul Reaver, you'll most likely want Soul Reaver 2, simply because it continues the story. [I]Castlevania: Symphony of the Night[/I]: If you ever played Super Metroid on the Super NES, you know how much fun a truly good platformer can be. Symphony of the Night is the true heir to Super Metroid, in terms of Perfect Platform Game. This is a hard one to find, but worth it. [I]Silent Hill[/I]: I don't think the sequel really lives up to the original. Silent Hill is a truly scary game. Highly recommended. [/QUOTE]
