PS2 suggestions? Can someone rumble up an atsonicpark type list for me? I've never owned a non-Nintendo console (wasn't intentional!) and PS2 appeals to me the most (also because I can finally play PS1 games too).

Depends what you like to play, but for me...

Holy crap that was such an overlooked but amazing game. Great side-scroll platforming through 3D environments. Nice stylized artwork. Great game...


And this is an absolute classic in the series. Sort of where it went from mildly realistic into embracing the more "arcade" side of it. Such a great transitional game for the series.

I miss these games...

And speaking of THPS. Did any fans of that series play THPS 5? Legitimately the most disappointing experience of my entire gaming life. Worst game of a series ever. My blood pressure is raising just thinking about it. Fuck Robomodo.

Pro Skater 3 and 4 were so amazing. I adored them. pro skater 5???? I almost wrote off tony hawk as a moneygrubbing fuck after that one....

Ya, I remember going back and watching some of the press he did after the fact, and you could just almost tell he knew he was peddling a bullshit product. Then I remember seeing or reading something about that being the last game in a contract he was in, or the gaming company was in. Not sure to be honest, and not sure how much water it held, but I remember it giving me a little of sympathy for him at least, like he really did not have much of a choice but to put his name on it one last time.


Either way, fuck all involved in making that heaping pile of dog-shit. It maintained absolutely 0% of what made that series what it was...

Anyone have some inane but entertaining iOS games? Need something to pass the time

Heads up: you can get The Sims 4 for free off Origin for the next few days (until the 28th IIRC). Just the raw game without any expansion backs, but a free game is a free game.

I just played about 3 hours of Trover Saves the Universe. It's a new game by one of the Rick and Morty creators, and it's one of the funnest things I have ever played. So, so, sooooo good. (and I am not even playing it via VR, which it was totally designed for) A pretty fun little puzzle/platformer that is funny as all hell. I HIGHLY recommend it so far.

Edit Update:
I have played through the whole thing now. This game is seriously one of the funnest playthroughs of any game I have ever played. Ranks right up there with the South Park games. I can only imagine how amazingly badass the VR must be. Still a great playthrough w/o it though.

Just had this conversation with some friends. If you were able to only have one system, what system would that be? You would only have the physical games released for that system.

clash of clans

Playing Pikmin 3!

I love my Wii U. It's especially great when it's soft modded. I'd say it's my favorite system, but I haven't got a switch yet.

Backwards compatible PS3... presuming I also get PSX/PS2 games


*holds gun to yr Sonic head&*:p:p:p

No mod then? Damn that's tough. I'd have to say the NES. I'd say it has the most amount of games I like compared to other systems.

I figured Mods and backwards compatibility would make it too easy. Like for PS3, I would limit it to only PS3 games.

I guess what I really want to see is what is everyone’s favorite system/era of gaming.

N64

First year of college. Pre-internet gaming. First console with 4 ports. ALWAYS had 4 people willing to play. And durable as hell. I swear that console ran practically 24/7 for multiple years.

4 player Mario Kart 64, James Bond: Goldeneye, and WCW vs. NWO with all the players in the same room talking mad shit. Losers had to pass the controller. Good times. Good times.

If I could include mods it would be unequivocally the wii u.

NES has the most amount of games I like, but for era, I think gamecube/xbox era is when console games fully matured. Since then graphics have gradually improved, but new games would be just as good if they had to be scaled back for those systems.

i pick PC then

Gonna pick up another Blast City Cabinet tomorrow. I’m so fucking excited. Just texted a dude in Cali about some link cables too. Who needs furniture when I’m gonna have H2H setup

Holy fucking shit.
