Best games for PS2?

author=GreatRedSpirit
God HandThe ultimate face punching game. It's tough but fair. Think of it as the evolution of the 2D beat'em'up games but without multiplayer and oh so much better.
best game ever right there

some of my other favorites:
Shadow Hearts 1&2
Suikoden 3&5 (i'm with alterego, i prefer the third one)
Raw Danger
Nocturne
Digital Devil Saga
FFX-2&12
Ico & Shadow of the Colossus
MGS2&3
PoP: Sands of Time
Rogue Galaxy
Xenosaga 3 (i like the first two as well, but objectively they're not very good)
DMC3
Bujingai
Shinobi
Onimusha 3&4
Silent Hill 2
Soul Reaver 2
BoF5: Dragon Quarter

that's what i've got off the top of my head

The myth of games as escapism

author=Sagitar
I felt tension, fear, stress, my heart rate quickened noticeably... You call that "poor game design" because it wasn't simple amusement? I'd say the opposite.
none of those words imply anything about the game feeling "like work" though

oh and this is just a thing re: your previous post, i think it's more valid to say that OCRemix's compositions were inspired by music, not games

Tim Rogers - A planet without Square Enix

part of ff7's charm is the hilariously atrocious localization and totally-not-PC portrayal of a black man

imagine how much we would lose to modern standards

The myth of games as escapism

author=Sagitar
First, here's the definition of "escapism" as given by Webster:
: habitual diversion of the mind to purely imaginative activity or entertainment as an escape from reality or routine.


and here's the definition for "game" as given by Webster:
: activity engaged in for diversion or amusement.

1. escapism is implicit. if escapism is habitual diversion, and you play games habitually, that's escapism.
2. games are for amusement. if a game "feels like work," that's poor game design.

p.s. games aren't art

Tim Rogers - A planet without Square Enix

author=iishenron
Every so often Tim Rogers writes a good article that isn't just about vegan burritos and life in Japan - this is one of them.

well okay no not really

i've only ever read a Tim Rogers thing in its entirety once and that was his FF13 review
