PS2 Game

[Chaddy]

Been a while since I've bought a PS2 game with the exception of the new Madden. I'm looking for a non sports PS2 game preferably a RPG. I know nothing about what's out there right now or what's any good. Any suggestions on one? I'd like for it to be newer. Thanks ahead of time for the suggestions.

[Chaddy]

Oh....no online games either.

If you can get by the long load times, Magna Carta. If you can find a copy that is. Great RPG, with a lot of new innovative stuff IMO.

Heard Dragon Quest 8 was alright as well.

[Asha]

Kengo.
Not new, not rated as amazing but is simply the only way you'll chop another guy to bits, in true style.

[Hips]

Yeah, the new Dragon Quest that just came out got really good reviews.

[Chaddy]

About this Dragon Quest game. I haven't played any of them would that leave me totally out of the game or is it like some other RPG's where they're not all linked and I can pick up anywhere?

[Renian]

As far as I know, the Dragon Quest games are not linked.

And while it's not an RPG, I've heard amazing things about Shadow of the Colossus.

[Chaddy]

More game ideas puleaze. I get out of work in a few hours and I'm heading on over to the local Walmart.

Hmm, I don't pick up many games but one gem I found (or so I think!) was Shadow Hearts Covenant. It's a sequel to an earlier game but I played it alone just fine before I tracked down the first.

[Renian]

Oh, wait, of course! I don't know if you've already played it, but Kingdom Hearts kicks surprising amounts of ass.

Then there's Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. Star Ocean: Till the End of Time is good too; the plot tastes like ass but the battle system is just insanely addictive.

What battle system? *coughcraftingcough* is where all my time was spent.

Also, the two updated version of Xenogears, now called Xenosaga aren't that bad.

[Chaddy]

Begging now. Less than two hours before I buy a shit game.

[Praefection]

Go with the first one I suggested. I was VERY impressed. :)

[fallenSaint]

I stopped reading half way down the posts so if its been suggested already my apologies but Id suggest Indigo Prophecy its not exceptionally long and drawn out but I thought it was rather fun.

If you like fighting you cant really loose with Soul Cal 3 either.

dragon quest 8 will not come out to PS2 or so the guys at gamestop tells me.

[Chadj]

Disgaea, Final Fantasy X, and Kingdom Hearts are all pretty good. :)

yeah, they lied to you.

edited to say:

Let me take this opportunity to put out there that you should ger Magna Carta. Seriously, great game so far. I can't count the amount of times where I tell myself, "Ok, next save point, I'm stopping for the day", only to discover a new point to the plotline of the story that makes me want to know what happens next. If this game didn't have a neat fighting system and a great storyline, I would have stopped playing it after the second long load time.

I bought Dragon Quest VIII. Thanks for all the responses.

FF12 will be out...just sleep for a few months and get it when you wake up. Dynasty warriors although not rpg is a great time killer..as well as stress killer.

[Chaddy]

I feel ya. Dynasty Warriors have always been the bomb.
