I have played and bought ALOT of games. I have a ps2 and i have a rack full of them. only a few i have bought thought have been worth my money. To me there are 2 kinds of games, ones you play by yourself and ones you play with friends.

Personally my favorite 1 player game would have to be mercenaries. I love the story, how you can free roam, the vehicles, and the weapons. On a scale from one to ten i give mercenaries a 9.5.

Then my favorite friend game. I don't have my playstation hooked on the internet so i play alot of 1 person games but out of all the games i have played i love playing Star ars Battle Front with my friends. Its so boring on 1 player, but we have gotten so obsessed with galactic conquest that we have wars that go on for days and some that never end because we have gotten so good at it. out of 10 i give it a 9.25 because of its lack of factions and one player fun.

What are your favorite 1 player and friend games (not online) also what is your rating out of ten on them?

(oh and if any of you know how to hook a playstation 2 up to the internet to play online, telegram ME! =)

God of War = 10 out of 10. by far my favorite game...

yah, everyone says so, but i dont think i would like it, i was deciding what to spend my money on and god of war was one of the first but i decided , hey its just going to be another adventure game and ill stick to shooters. so im saving up until november 1st when battlefront 2 comes out.

True Crime Streets of New York City!!!!
and NBA live 06

well definately put it on your x-mas list then... ;)

PS2 -----> Disney Golf
my kid broke it, I was sooo sad :( I can't find another copy :(


way back on NES there was a Tiny Tune Adventure game I loved, but I was pretty young I may not like it anymore.

Hitman: Contracts!!!

Arcanum!

L-shaped ambush...

True Crime streets of new york is out already! i didn't know yet! Awsome! but nba street! are you nuts! i hate those, they are all the same thing they just make more than one version costing 50 bucks each and they add one thing in and change the name like nba street, then nba street 2, WITH COLOR YOUR OWN BASKET BALL! does that sound like a video game to you...o and dont forget the ratings out of 10.

cmon guys i havent heard of some of these games so tell me about them and give me your ratings.

Heh. I'm going to randomly pick Earthbound for Super Nintendo for it's sheer whackiness. Rating out of ten you say? I give it... ah... 8. Just because.

And 'friend games' you say? I guess Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II, because hell if I've been able to play any other game since Perfect Dark (and even that was pretty badly), not counting the first Dark Alliance game. 7.5 out of 10, there. The graphics are a bit neh, and replayability is fairly low unless you wait for a long time. It also loses points for being too short and having a HORRIBLE, CLIFF-HANGY ENDING! I demand closure!

Fav 1 player game = Chrono Trigger

Fav multiplayer game = Def Jam: Fight for NY

Chrono Trigger needs no explanation, but some of you may question my choice in Fight for NY. Fight for NY is the BEST fighting game to date. I've played through it about ten times with ten charaters whose fighting styles are completely different from one another, and there's still so many combinations of fighting styles I haven't tried yet. Also, the fighting is brutal, mostly realistic, and crazy fun. Plus you can be Henry Rollins, and Rollins kicks ass.

I give Def Jam: Fight for NY 9 out of 10 (minus one for the shitty sound track).

cmon guys i havent heard of some of these games so tell me about them and give me your ratings.

Okay then.

This (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcanum:_Of_Steamworks_and_Magick_Obscura) is the Wikipedia entry for Arcanum. I give it a 9.73 out of 10.

L-shaped ambush is something you do for real. It's not a game. But it is fun, if you're not the one in the kill zone.

ok best gaming experience possible, get a snes and super mario kart, then an n64 with super mario kart then a gamecube and you guessed it super mario kart, then all in one room have a few drinks and then let the multiplayer frenzie begin, also while your at it grab goldeneye and have a few more drinks the mines are crazy!

see i dont like many series games thats why i dont like nintendo,to many mario, zelda, and other sequals and prequals. but there is one series i will never get bored of and it is definetly splinter cell. i have beaten 1 and 2 and now im on # 3 chaos theory.

I got this one emulator, which came with a game called "Clocktower."
It seemed like a little babys game, so i played it,
*In game
I was with a group of orphens, we went into a old mansion, where our adoptive parents were, I went to look for the teacher was, I walked into a different room, and heared a scream. So I ran back and found eveyone gone, and blood stains everywhere. I was creeped out, but i still thought it was a little kids game, I went into a bedroom and I looked into the mirror, all of a sudden a pair of hands came out and choaked my charecter, I jumped out of my chair and fell onto the hard tile. I restarted, and left the entrance room, and came back, nothing happened at first, then i saw blood fly down and I saw a little undead man with huge scissors, fall down from the cellings colored glass, with his scissors dug into one of the orphanes chest, myself, who has NEVER seen a horrer movie actualy wet myself, I ran into the court yard, finding one of the girls drounding, then Scissors man came out and killed me. Ive had nightmares for about 5 days so far

10/10:
Nice action, and horrer, and later on GREAT storyline a grand way to spend a day with dark lights and many pairs of boxers

Well, Dungeons and Dragons has to be the most fun i've ever had. You can have a few mates round and just set 'em all up on a random quest of some sort. Only problem is short attention spans.

But videogame wise, i have to say Smash Bros Melee is my firm favourite for multiplayer, and as far as single-player modes go, SSBM again is my most played, but Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time isn't my most played, but is my favourite.
though i'd say these are close contenders

Armored Core 2 + 3
Super Metroid
Mario 64 (and most 2D marios as well, for that matter)
Morrowind for radnom killing sprees. Gotta love bound codpiece :D

Dude i love that game. i played it awhile ago when it was knew and OMG i was freaked. did you see the part where the dude gets his head chopped off by the clock tower when he stickes his head out of the clock tower window. Its awsome but a little old for me know.(actually mail me the game and let me have it if it scares you to much i luv that game!)

I got this one emulator, which came with a game called "Clocktower." -snip-

I'll have to throw in a 'hell yeah!' for Clocktower. The gameplay was simplistic, but the fearful atmosphere and great storyline snag it an 8 out of 10 from me.

Favorite one player game is legend of zelda ocorina of time by far.
multiplayer would have to go to golden eye for N64, ive never had that much fun playing multiplayer.

Yah im not into most of those games even though i have a gamecube too but there is one game i loved on the game cube and your right i think super smash bros melee is awsome to along with orcarina of time and majoras mask, those are pretty much to only games on nintendo that i like.(oh and did you know that when the new nintendo revolution comes out one of the first games they are going to make is Super Smash Bros Melee 2! its going to be awsome!)

See another game i love to play with my friends is Lego star wars. it kinda sound like im a star wars freak right now but i just like their games. Its fun when you are trying to get coins and killing droids with your friends but when you have done it all not even cheats can make the game better. it was still a fun, short experience. i have also played star wars episode 3 on the playstation, and let me tell you...how am i going to say this...DONT GET IT! i bought it and played it and yes it was fun on one player and had good moves but its extremly short and 2 player is dryer than a beach on a hot day! its a waste of 50 bucks! i ended up bringing it back in a day or two!

O and ill rate it 6 out of 10 for the 6 hours it took me to beat it...talk about short!

Cmon People tell me your favortite game, your reason why, and your rating out of ten.

favourite game ever? red alert, red alert 2, starcraft or medieval total war... i like strategies :)
though goldeneye and deus ex have to be in the top few as well


if i have to pick just one, i give RA2 9 out of 10 for being just so damn brilliant... and another point for the awesome RA series music = 10/10 :P


oooh and also, add to my list GTA Vice City - loved that one so much :)
and gta2 - good memories there

oooh and Grim Fandango!


and how can i forget the sim city series!? 2000, 3k and 4 were all awesome (with 3 being my fave out of the lot - good sense of humour that was lost in 4 :()

My all time fave is Pirates Gold -where is My pink shirt and tight black trousers time to go wenching and killing Spanish -

Yah i forgot about the gta series and the strategy genre. But on the pc my favorite game is Age of the empires, i love that one and my favorite gta game is san andreas, i beat vice city to quickly and i lost the taste for it so i dont play that one any more.

Final Fantasy VII. No doubt about it. 10/10. Absolutely Perfect.

ok best gaming experience possible, get a snes and super mario kart, then an n64 with super mario kart then a gamecube and you guessed it super mario kart, then all in one room have a few drinks and then let the multiplayer frenzie begin, also while your at it grab goldeneye and have a few more drinks the mines are crazy!
yeah mariokart is awesome... but if you really want crazy go for Smash Bros Melee, plenty of beer and some pills - gaurenteed fun :p

i be kirby, the small pink marshmallow of doom, btw :)

AoE was awsome, granted... shame about the latest one (age of mythology or whatever) cos it was shite imho. the new one in development (AoE3) looks breathtaking though *drools*

and i mostly loved Vice City for the atmos and the music, being an 80s metal fan myself it was great just to listen to V-Rock all the time :D
san andreas is great, just... not as much fun (or as silly) as the older gta games imo

Sly 1, 2 and 3. All of them get 9/10 from me. (hey, that rhymes!)
GTA 3 and Vice city get 9.5/10 from me too. GTA San Andreas gets 9/10.

I'm a solid Playstation fan, even my TV is Sony! ^_^

Fave multiplayer game: Perfect Dark

I just haven't seen an FPS that gives you this many options since. I mean, there were like 10 bot modes, and 5 diffulty settings for the bots. You could command bots that were on your team. Each weapon had a unique secondary fire, something that most games today still don't have. I even liked the punch drunk effects in the game. I've always liked the faster more arcady games, so I've never been a big fan of Halo, and Timesplitters, which I have, is fun but it only makes me wish for PD even more. It had great graphics for it's time, but mostly,I just really really liked the gameplay options. It never got old, because you could change the weapons out, change the bots, the game mode, and the map. Besides, it had that Darksim. Anyone here, ever try to kill one of these? I think it'd be easier to get the pope to swear allegiance to Satan.....heh....Anywho, that why I like this game. I'd definetly give it 9 of 10.

I loved Deus Ex (1) for everything but multiplayer. I guess for multiplayer my vote would have to go for CS 1.6.

For the record, CS: Source sucks. ;)

(actually mail me the game and let me have it if it scares you to much i luv that game!)

You can download it for free at Emulator sites, you can get all nes, snes, and game boy games.

Single player:

FreeCIV.

Multi:

Xpilot.

Fav: Starcraft Broodwar(Best game ever. Fact.)

Another great one:Civlization(3 especially)

BF1942 was also a great one, though it was nothing without mods.

Top 3 (w/ multiplayer):
Perfect Dark (I pwn the darksim. No lie.) 10/10
StarCraft:Brood War 10/10
StarWars: Battlefront 9/10

Favorite Single Player:
Super Mario RPG for SNES 10/10
