I'm happy king's field finally got a chance to shine. It's a slow game, but it's one of the most immersive games I've ever played. One of the most memorable game I've played on ps2
There were 3 ps1 games, but the first one was never released outside of Japan. Fortunately they did release Shadow Tower on ps1, its spiritual cousin. From From!
if you remember the original king,s field on ps1 and #2 on ps1 not sure about #3 because i never heard of it but #4 on ps2 i now own a copy of this one myself and i must admit it is interesting to say the least thank you for sharing the ps2 system memories🤔💛🙏
Really enjoy your lists, man! Makes reminiscing about some of these older games a blast, especially some of the great ones from various eras that don't get enough love. Appreciate what you do!
I just have to say thank you. Thanks to your videos, I discovered a lot of really good unknown games. Like Dead Head Fred, Freedom Fighters, Rengoku, Killswitch, Project Snowblind...... I intend to try to play ALL the games you indicated in these videos on all platforms.
Wow, this video is FILLED with some of my childhood favorite PS2 games. These games still bring back really fond memories, and I can't help wishing for remakes or ports to modern consoles/PC.
I just picked up Radiata Stories for $25 at a pawn shop a couple months ago. Its one of my favorite battle systems, for sure. Would reccomend to anyone.
There are even Atari 2600/NES/SMS/MD/SNES games that are more creative, talented, and memorable than tons of modern stuff. I'd still add that the last decade was great for gaming in general, lots of great games coming from talented studios.
I remember when Radiata Stories came out, there was a comparison to the Suikoden series with its recruiting of different characters. I’m a big fan of the Suikoden series, so I might give Radiata Stories a go. Thanks for the suggestion. Great content as always.
Radiata Stories and Rogue Galaxy are two of my favorites. Especially Radiata Stories, it doesn't get enough attention and definitely needs a new port. I have the physical copy but it's collecting too much dust.
The games listed here that I wanted to play back then were Rogue Galaxy (I kept forgetting its title), Dark Cloud 2, and perhaps Tales of the Abyss (because Vesperia was so much fun).
Thank God you still have that intro song, I dont know exactly how much I have been subscribed but hear the intro with the smooth scenes always give me chills and a nostalgia feeling 🙌 I know it will change someday, I will enjoy it while it last 😎👍
Great video! I love PS2 and already have an extensive list of the PS2 I want to play. I'm surprised to see some great looking games I've never seen before, thanks!
I always go back to the question, which system did I overall like better PS1 or PS2 and man...lists like this make me realize its almost impossible to choose lol. They both have amazing games. Wonderful list of fantastic games.
@@raymartecoto8389 7th gen is my favorite generation with games like Borderlands, Dragon Age Origins, Bioshock, Wolfenstein TNO, Gears of War, God of War 3 and others. The jrpg was lacking but other genres got dominant. Last gen we saw jrpg resurrection with Tales of Berseria/ Arise, Ys 8/9, Atelier Ryza, Rune Factory 4 Special, FF 7 Remake, KH 3, and many others upcoming games. I'm so excited! I still have many ps2 games I want to play, I wish I had a time chamber lol
Radiata Stories and Rogue Galaxy really bring back many memories. Spent hundreds of time playing those game. Especially Rogue Galaxy with it's bug catching mini game. Love it.
The only ones from the list I have played are Odin Sphere, Ys: The Ark of Napishtim, Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon, and Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, but I love all of those games and I look forward to checking out the others. Thank you for the recommendations. Also, even though it isn't quite as great as its sequel, Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army is a good game and is definitely worth playing.
PS2 era still the best than any console generation i agree that there's many amazing PS4 and PS5 Games but can't be compared to PS2 Games I'm still tuning my PS2 i just love PS2 Menu sound that similar to beach wave
@@upshitdownshit4200 As someone who has played the game many times over, the final boss is honestly not that bad if you know what you're doing. The last couple of times I fought the Dark Genie at the end of Zelmite Mines I was able to beat him no problem by guarding his laser beam and taking shots whenever I got the chance to, this strategy easily enabled me to solo him with Monica with a maxed out Island King and Love
Iirc, there's also MP damaging moves in Star Ocean: Til the End of Time. It adds more gameplay mechanics and more ways to play as a result. Not only do you die from running out of MP, but you can kill enemies with MP-damaging moves instead of HP-damaging moves. If the enemies have too much HP, then you could try preparing your party with MP-damage builds instead.
Tales of the Abyss is one of my faves as well! It's my second favorite Tales game, right under Eternia, though it's probably my favorite PS2 one. I also liked Ys 6 though I still need to finish it. Wish I could say I liked Star Ocean 3 more but I don't lol! It was my first but combat felt stiff to me. I still want to try the Devil Summoner games though. King's Field I tried and died lol! Which is weird because I like Dark Souls. KH2 I also loved. I remember being so hyped for it back in the day. I used to check websites for info like all the time lol! Rogue Galaxy I like as well. Took a long time to get myself a copy after lowkey getting scammed with a copy that wasn't in great condition, but it all worked out in the end. It's not a JRPG, but another one I would recommend is Champions of Norrath. It's a Diablo-esque style of game but it's fun with a lot of charm.
Tales of the Abyss still has one of my favorite stories in a game, and the character development across the entire cast (especially Luke) is nearly unmatched.
@@Tasuke Yeah, it actually took me by surprise at the time since I'd gotten used to the standard ebbs and flows of JRPG stories. Seeing one really going for the gold was a shock, but a welcome one for sure. Much like how Radiata Stories' dedication to have over a hundred characters with full schedules really served to make the city special in a way most games haven't to this day.
@@thatvideogamesshow No problem. Have you ever heard of 40 Winks? That’s another great PS1 title. Just thought I’d mention it. Thanks for the video - keep up the great work.
Another great list of games here! While I haven’t played all of these, I’m definitely interested to check out King’s Field - The Ancient City! Also, I really need to try the Ys games. They look like great fun. Odinsphere is another I never got around to playing, but heard a lot of praise for, and looks really cool. Great video again man!
You should absolutely try it's remake OdinSphere Leifthrasir! There's a solid bit of game mechanics that were fine tuned and updated along with making it HD and remastering the beautiful music. I loved it so much I bought the PS4 and Vita versions as there's cross save compatibility.
interesting list of ps2 video game's some i already found and added them to my favorite,s thank,s for sharing the memories of a interesting system(the ps2)
@@thatvideogamesshow well at this point I'm pretty confident in your suggestions, bought quite a few games recently based off of your videos to help pad out my collection most recently Genji and Oni.

As far as Odin Sphere goes, it got a PS4 re-release with updated graphics, better frame rate, and controls, plus I think there’s a new playable character. If you’ve got a choice between PS4 or PS2 versions just go with the PS4.
@@im22sonofadracula32 they both have an easy mode, per sé, however, the newer Odin's Sphere is more fleshed out. I had more fun with that than the original and I beat the original game twice.
Odin Sphere is a great pick, but get the updated version that hit PS3/PS4/Vita some years back. It has additional content, more spells, recipe's etc. I would recommend against the PS2 version for that reason and also it has tremendous slowdown during boss battles. Which helps with the difficulty, since this IS a difficult game. But yeah... avoid and get the Leifthrasir edition which obviously doesn't have frame rate issues.
Rogue galaxy!! Such a underrated game. Seriously a great game. Level 5 was refining their craft after the first two dark cloud games before they dropped this banger of a game
Your videos serious couldn't have came at a better time! A fantastic free Playstation 2 emulator for android came out a few months ago making all of these games playable on phones now!
Habia comentado sin ver el video,cuando vi Devil Summoner 2,este señor sabe.Que juego me acuerdo que lo jugue mas de 90 horas,no recuerdo un juego con esta dinamica,aparte de Persona,pero tiene otro toque.
HOL' UP, THERE WAS AN ARPG VERSION OF SMT DEVIL SUMMONER!? man I've actually learned something, I don't think I have it in me to play older slasher types anymore but man this actually looks like exactly what I wanted to try in the series when I was younger
Playing Kingdom hearts 2 FM on critical difficulty is so fun especially data battles it has a great battles system that can be customized which makes combo's deep at it while Forms add different style to sora and makes the game enjoyable even if you struggle to beat a boss you will had fun
It would be nice if you could say or little written info on the bottom of the video about the games title how much the game costs and when it was released and if it is available on PSN or steam.
Great list and for some reason I haven't played most of these games, what the hell was I playing on my PS2 back in the day? Surely I wasn't spending the whole time just playing SSX tricky LOL
if you do NOT want to get stuck in endless cutscenes every few minutes with barely any game time in between do NOT even bother with Kingdom Hearts 2. the amount of cutscenes to actual play time is ridiculous AF. fight 1 battle, cutscene, have a cutscene, cutscene. like WTF were the devs thinkning.
It's a really story-heavy game bro. I personally didn't feel like the ratio of gameplay vs cutscene was too bad at all. But, then again I was playing mostly for the story and the cutscenes were half the enjoyment for me at the time. Just comes down to the type of game you like to play. Plenty of games with even less gameplay, some games have zero cutscenes, just go play something else man.
Keep on making these videos I love coming here for recommendations I used to try every single game in ROM websites but DAMM there is a lot of crap in the ps2 library lol
13:18 While I know your videos are mostly focusing on obscure or lesser known games (and god bless you for it) I was afraid you wouldn't mention Kingdom Hearts in any capacity, despite the title of the video being "top 10 MUST have".
I prefer Kingdom Hearts 1 over 2, and same for Dark Cloud: it has a less ambitious storyline which works, while the sequel has a flowed plot and storytelling.

Better play the multiplat games on PC or Xbox. The PS2 version usually has slow down and inferior graphics hence higher input lag. Just my 2cents.
Wow, this video is FILLED with some of my childhood favorite PS2 games. These games still bring back really fond memories, and I can't help wishing for remakes or ports to modern consoles/PC.
I didn't grow up with PS2 so it's nice to know there's so many quality action RPGs on the system
They’re well worth giving a go!
The PS2 has tons of RPGs. From mainstream to niche to "I had no idea this was a thing".
That sad moment when you're looking for a new game to pick up and play and come here, only to find that you already own the entire list...
I just picked up Radiata Stories for $25 at a pawn shop a couple months ago. Its one of my favorite battle systems, for sure. Would reccomend to anyone.
I love it for all the characters you can recruit on 2 different sides
Games like Odin Sphere are the proof ultra realistic ray traced graphics aren't needed to make something great and memorable.
