i have entered the twentieth century!
Aug. 27th, 2007 03:17 pmThis weekend I ordered a laptop and bought a PS2.
So tell me, o lazyweb, what cheap PS2 games should I be acquiring post-haste? Note that I don't do CRPGs (I have no patience for an endless stream of nigh-identical random battles, nor do I believe that pressing a button to slowly read through dialogue counts as "gameplay"). I'm partial to "action-adventure" games, and non-twitchy puzzle games if such things exist. I already own Frequency, am on the lookout for Amplitude, and am contemplating Gitarzan (or, as the rest of the world refers to it, "Guitar Hero"), and that will probably tide me over for rhythm games.

SC3 had the best set of side-quest-esque stuff to do, with missions you could take on that had particular rules or special arena events. (Pass the bomb is a cute one.) It's mostly a matter of whether paying more money for variations on beating people up appeals to you. (Since we've established that paying more money for variations of pressing buttons appeals to you *and* me, it's really just a matter of degree. ;-) )
