![The Top 100 Most Expensive PS2 Games! [September 2020]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_dQ0EP8lD68/mqdefault.jpg)
Which PS2 game do you want remade?
For me I would love to see Dead to Rights & Dead to Rights 2
Loved those games. I’ll have to add one for part 2!
I don't want remakes, just ports all the AC games, all the AC games, Ichigeki Hoi Hoi, God Hand, Bunjigai, and any other hack n slash and ARPGS. Im afraid my ps2 may die and hunting down PS2 games like Blood Will Tell is very costly.
16:39 .. would u pls share if this is from Final Fantasy XII or.. where is this from again cause I used to listen to it a lot on youtube, had it bookmarked it and all.
god of war 1 and 2
Godhand is something else man. The gameplay is a+ and the cutscenes keep you entertained you never know what to expect
The whole Legacy of Kain series is in dire need of a remake. The voice acting and world building in the first and Soul Reaver were top notch.
Absolutely correct
The most correct answer.
Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria and Star Ocean 3: Til the End of Time
That is such an underrated sequel. Needed way more love, especially after the original!
@@thatvideogamesshow Agreed! Alicia got some hate back in the day I think? Sure she’s no Lenneth or Freya but I liked her as the MC. Also I loved the 4th dimension matrix-style twist in SO3.
The Getaway, Capcom VS SNK, Manhunt, State Of Emergency, Street Fighter EX3, A lot of games need to be remade not completely changed though.
Great selections there!
Haha State of Emergency, The Getaway and Manhunt will definitely be butchered by censorship of the mighty woke cult.
State of emergency would be very controversial if it got a remake lol
Did you like the getaway? I thought it sucked, I like the others you mentioned though
@@joelabraham6834 the getaway was very good as for the story and missions. But the driving mechanics were shit
This is why the PS2 era was the best era
I’ll second that!
I’ll third that.
Yep it's when developers could do almost everything so they just did. After that it went straight into big budget blockbusters.
@adam145 PS3 era was decent but PS4? downhill
100% on this, PS2 has a long run amazing library of Games.
Maybe it'll be in the next video, but The Suffering definitely deserves a remake. Great game that a lot of people haven't probably played. :)
I remember playing a bit of Ties That Bind when I was a kid and really liked it, it reminded me of Evil Dead Regeneration. But it's definitely a game that doesn't come to mind very often, would love a remake.
MK Shaolin Monks is very underrated. playing with 2 players is so fun in this game, must play through for any MK fan!
It really is!
I have always been rather surprised we never got another. I have never heard any MK Fan that did not enjoy it. One of the only Spin-offs that was actually good.
I bought Rogue Galaxy completely blind out of a bargain bin. Talk about a sleeper hit, that game was amazing! I even loved all the bonus/sidequesty stuff like the bug battles lol.
Rogue Galaxy has been ported to the PS4 and PS5.
rouge galaxy could have been a smash hit with the ps vita
I bought SMT 3 Lucifers call blind in on release wow what I suprise I had haha 😂
radiata stories, holds a special place man
Love me some Radiata Stories! I’ll have to add it for part 2 🙂
Minor correction. In Resident Evil: Code Veronica, Claire did not "travel to a island in Europe". She traveled to what was then thought to be the Umbrella HQ in Europe. There, she was captured, drugged, then taken to Rockfort Island while unconscious. Rockfort Island is in the South Pacific, not Europe.
I remember when that released onimusha on the switch a few years back expecting the second and third ones to come along eventually but still nothing. All I can hope for now is a remake. That or dino crisis. Or hell id take remasters for most of this list!
Unfortunately Capcom didn't consider it to be a success so they're not bringing other titles over. Such a shame because I want to play as Jean Reno.
@@adam145 highlight of PS2 gaming right there!
Great choices! I'd have to add the TimeSplitters games, and Zone of the Enders games!
Good choice!
The maximo series would be wonderful to be remade
Totally agree with Ico and Mortal Kombat Shaolin monks. You know I think sly Cooper needs a remaster too.
For me: The Punisher, Urban Chaos Riot Response, The Suffering, Psi Ops The Mindgate Conspiracy, Cold Fear, Tenchu Wrath of Heaven, Samurai Western, and The Way of the Samurai.
I'm sure I could list more lol. Darkwatch is a good pick too.
Great choices mate!
Fuck: that's a solid list.
YES!
Also Freedom Fighters would be a great one to add. Glad you experienced the Punisher and Psi Ops with the lasting impressions I got as a kid too. Control gave me the same feeling Psi Ops did when I was 7/8, closest I reckon i'll ever get to a game with telekinesis done so damn well
and Darkwatch, you are the only person I know that knows of that game. The game demo I played wayy to much, never finished it as I only got the chance to rent it out like twice overnight as a kid. Was too poor, and used to just steal the PS2 demo discs from Kmart out of the magazines and hide it in my pants.
@@scenenufDarkwatch is more popular than you think. It’s a hidden gem that many know nowadays
The Champions of Norrath duology (with magic getting an extreme overhaul to be viable).
Never heard of this one, I’ll have to check it out!
You pick a good selection of gems my man! I will add on Urban Chaos riot response, Shinobi PS2
Thanks man! Some great choices yourself there 🙂
I still got Chaos Legion and Haunting Ground in my collection, would love to have a remake of both of them, now that you mentioned them guess is time to use my PS2 and my CRT Sony Trinitron 😊
Yooo Bully and God Hand remakes would be so sick! Never really got into God Hand (mainly because of all the modern action games I played prior to it), but imagine it with more modernised combat, goddamn.
Would love to see it!
Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks has everything from deep combat, platforming, exploration, secrets and Co-op! It kinda amazes me how this amazing game still has not recieved a remake already. few games I like to see remakes: Eve of Extinction, Blood Will Tell and Transformers Armada
Such a great beat em up!
That wasn't an exclusive though and entirely unnecessary to bring back
@@VaeVictus17 if they bring it back they can add online co-op and maybe an increased difficulty setting
Yeah, imagine Shaolin Monks with modern graphics and more fluid gameplay (and maybe more characters for story mode)
they need to just re-do the ps2 era, no remakes no. i mean just re manufacture ps2s and re manfuacture every ps2 game and just do the era again. it was the best era in gaming imo.
I’ll second that!
Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II. Such an excellent list of songs, and actually the most time I spent with the Guitar Hero series, or it's sequels, spin-offs, and knockoffs.
remake or a modern sequel, I'd love to see Drakan become a thing again. I loved those games so much (first on the PC, sequel on the PS2). I've always felt Dual Hearts was a little underappreciated as well
Never seen anyone in the wild that played dual hearts.
@@therealbenlurie8810 it was a favorite of mine; I love dream world games. Huge fan of Alundra on the ps1, and Dual Hearts scratched a lot of the same itches!
@@DoorsInTheLabyrinth loved alundra when I was a kid. I tried playing it as an adult and holy shit it's hard.
@@therealbenlurie8810 it's been a little while, I remember some of those timed puzzles were a bear, but the combat felt pretty good. I don't know if I ever got all the falcon statues.
Great list! I agree with almost all of the games listed here. Keep up the good work!
Stuntman, War Of The Monsters and Auto Modellista would be my top 3 picks.
Auto Modellista was originally in this video but cut it for part 2. Love that game so much, especially the cel shaded approach to the visuals!
We all know Road Trip Adventure deserves a remake the most.
Yes! Dropped it from part one, but it’ll definitely make part 2. Great little racer!
Great selection of games... PS2 era is a goldmine waiting to be remade... Xenosaga / Shadow Hearts / Legacy of Kain / Soul Reaver / Grandia / Odin Sphere / Rule of Rose / Klonoa and so many others ...
Awesome video, thank you...
Ports yes, remakes... I'm a little hesitant with a few...
Best remake is what they do with Shadow of Colossus tho...just an upgrade of graphic!! I want they do that for ICO too...
The Odin Sphere remake (Leifthrasir) does exist.
Klonoa was PS1
@@originalsleepyjon and PS2 too... Klonoa 2 - Lunatea's Veil
Shadow Hearts was one of the games with a cool darker story and had an interactive JRPG combat system. Legend of Legaia 2 is another one that had an interesting combat system that was more than choose fight, magic, defend, or run. Either one of those would be decent remade games. They were fun and innovative.
Resident Evil Code Veronica is a Dreamcast Game, ported to the PS2. But Code Veronica X was a PS2 Release. And yeah, we need a Remake of this Game.
Technically Code Veronica X is a port of the Dreamcast Japanese only Code Veronica Complete.
Jak and Daxter Trilogy remake from the ground up is what I would like to see.
That trilogy still holds up pretty well except for maybe the textures.
Resident Evil Code Veronica X is DEFINITELY a game I want to see remade!! One of the best installments in the entire series! Also, I’ve been hoping for an Onimusha remake in the vein of the RE remakes lately. Also, extra props for MK Shaolin Monks getting recognition. Finally caught up on this video, and nodded my head in agreement 👍. Fantastic video as always man!
If they are gonna remake PS2 stuff, these are some really solid choices. The Chaos Legion demo disc rocked my gaming world.
PS2 games that need a remake:
FF10
Ecco the dolphin
Primal
Metal Gear Solid 2
Devil May Cry 3
Jade Cocoon series needs a reboot in the original studio ghibli artstyle
Great choices!
Why DMC3? The switch port is good.
Ecco the Dolphin is a Dreamcast port and the sequel was cancelled when Sega killed off the Dreamcast rather then move development to the PS2.
I remember when Primal was supposed to be the next big franchise. Never played it unfortunately.
Definitely Champions of Norrath and Return to Arms. Would also love to see a remake of Drakan: The Ancient Gates
I would also add Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance I & II.
I loved Code Veronica but got to the final boss with the wrong weapon so I couldn't beat it. Never tried again after that but this review makes me think I should.
I would add few more, The Warriors would be amazing if it got a remake since 70's Coney Island aesthetic to this day are damn unique no series ever really come close.
Kuon also one of few PS2 horror games that outright felt like a curse, imagine that in 4k... Fatal Frame & Siren also superb choice, but then again, the horror game that deserves remake treatment the most is Rules of Rose. That one is criminally underrated, and the rarity my God! But at least we got SH2 remake now, let's hope for the best.
And then there's some games that just better to have new titles than remake such as RE: Outbreak #3 and Zone of Enders 3rd. These two I'd kill to have!
Rogue Galaxy! I've been thinking about this game lately, but I couldn't remember the name. Thanks!
It was a really good game, except for the terrible design leading up to the final boss. Here's the process:
1) Save point
2) 40 minutes of unskippable cut scenes and minibosses.
3) Boss kills you in 10 seconds.
I only tried the boss twice. I'm sure there was some pattern to his attacks that I needed to learn, but having to spend forty minutes trying to get to him for each attempt drained away all my enthusiasm.
Still, great game up to that point.
Thumbs up for including Onimusha in the list
Really need a remake!
Me: "Man I hope this list has Chaos Legion on it."
List's first game: *Chaos Legion*
Me: "Done!"
Code Veronica definitely deserve a remake, I really hope they will do it !
Great list of games that i agree 100% deserve a remake. I owned many of these games on the PS2 which does have some of the best & underrated games ever made making it more apparent for them to hopefully get a remake. Chaos Legion i had but never fully completed but played a lot of RE code veronica, Bully & Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks, great fun. I still have my copy of Haunting Ground, that is easily one of the most underrated horror games ever & i agree would love to see a remake of it for sure.
I replayed Bully and it's unlike any other game out there. It's hilariously clever beyond comparison. And Darkwatch is just straight up fun that never dulls in pacing during its short, but undeniably fun playtime.
This!
Before I look, EXTREME G RACING 3 better be on here !
Personally for me, Soul Caliber II was the best of the series. It wasn't bogged down with bad characters or bad story, it was just about perfect. I would like it remade.
I remember Chaos Legion and I can safely say that game does NOT need any remake or remaster. It can stay forgotten. I love Devil May Cry and Dynasty Warriors and thought it would be a mixture of both but it had some of the most tedious hack and slash gameplay of all time. Too bad because it's soundtrack was god tier.
I'm 100% against remakes because more often than not they change the original story and atmosphere during development
I can agree to a certain extent as remakes are a hit or miss, generally. Shadow of the Colossus has a remake that should've emphasized the memorable beauty somehow made on PS2 technology, but instead makes changes that don't feel the same as the original fans fell in love with in the first place.
As much as I'd love to see a Cide Veronica remake, Capcom is going to pretend they don't see anyone wanting a remake of it.😢
I'd love to see a Second Sight remake!
I remember Rogue Galaxy being quite hard, at first at least.
Finding myself having to heal SO often and having my party members die all the time during the tutorial area.
It was a nice change from the usual boring, sleep inducing tutorials.
Maxing out weapon mastery was a total chore tho.
It is a good game but too long. Finished it in 60 hours. Games like Ys 8, Trials of Mana remake, and Tales of Berseria have ideal length for action jrpg imo.
SOCOM 1,2,3 & combined assault 😊
Crazy how nobody ever mentions Blood Omen, Soul Reaver or the Legacy of Kain series as a whole. They are absolutely amazing.
Love your videos
I agree with you these games definitely need a remake and more
I would be happy with just a remastered collection.
Absolutely phenomenal list. I own, have beaten, and love every one of these. Except Bully, never played it but I should be able to get it on the PSN. Keep up the great work!
Thanks mate!
need a dark cloud 1&2 remaster and dark cloud 3 release
With all due reapect, I am sick and tired of remakes. Rather, I’d like to see all of these franchises get new sequels. A remake, in my eyes, is the same as staying in the past, while a new game would be moving forward.
Ico with modern controls and hitboxes would be amazing. Godhand just needs more releases, that game is amazing. PS2 is such a deep library, I love playing all these games that I missed while playing JRPGs back in that era. LOVE Onimusha, sad that it's pretty much overshadowed by DMC at this point. Both are great. Rogue Galaxy is just a real gem.
Video features Chaos Legion but does not display a single second of the Legions being used in combat 😂
The first 3 Fatal Frame games, Resident Evil Outbreak, Tomb Raider Legend, FFX and X-2, FFXII
OMG I loved Chaos Legion! Borrowed it from a friend but could never remember the name! Thank you!
Agree with all your choices…please do a part 2..
Herdy Gerdy would be a good candidate, Way of the Samurai 1 and 2, RE: Outbreak: State of Emergency, oh and Urban Chaos
Darkwatch was such a creative FPS!
With Final Fantasy games, the Devil May Cry series, Katamari Damacy, Okami, and the Jak and Daxter trilogy already remade/remastered, you really gotta think about this one for a moment. Oh! I know one! Dirge of Cerberus. It's a nice game, but could have used more freedom of movement, like in the Devil May Cry series. There were so many areas with invisible barriers, it was frustrating while the game had almost achieved greatness.
Something about ps2 worlds that feel so much more adventurous to me. (Could be nostalgia)
Hahaha))) Oh Bully :) If it got a remake I'd be officially over the sadness of understanding that in today's society not even Rockstar isn't able to do that.
I hope u do video games documentaries.. and video games histories.. like GVMERS style or Nick
Ur voice is so good for that
Thank you! Watch this space 🙂
Haunting Ground ftw!
- Castlevania: Lament of Innocence / Curse of Darkness
- Jak & Dakter
- Spyro / Crash
- Sly Cooper
- God of War 1/2 (perhaps cliché, but since the ps5 can play god of war 3 but not the first two series games) ....
Freedom Fighters, Extermination, Genji , Legend of Kay and Van Helsing
Notable omissions:
TimeSplitters 2
Dark Cloud 2
Fatal Frame 2
Rayman 3
Sly Cooper trilogy
Survival horror is very popular at the moment so i think the followin ps2 games need a remake Kuon, cold fear, obscure, haunting ground and rule of rose.
Although I'd prefer remaster, as I don't trust people these days to remake it properly, Shadow Hearts 1 and 2 would be my pick. Nothing special: just updated appearance and maybe a couple quality of life improvements, and we'd be set! No touching the story.
Shadow Hearts would be awesome to see! I’ll have to include it for part 2.
I was looking for this. I want a remake of the first game with the QoL changes in 2.
1.Tekken tag tournament
2. ICO
3. Fatal Frame trilogy
4. All Tenchu games
5. Kuon
6.God of War 1&2
7.Drakengards
I'm all for the preservation and remasters but remakes... now that's something entirely different. And I don't think that every above average to good game needs a remake. I think that some game should just stay the way they are.
The Jak and Daxter series ought to finish out the remasters of its remaining titles. It'd be really nice, since you know, they decided to focus on making a hundred different Ratchet and Clank games instead.
I do partly agree that RE: Code Veronica is a black sheep of the family. I often think that RE Zero is more black sheepish than that. Not sure if I explained that right. Anyways, great list and always looking forward to you videos.
Holy shit someone else actually remembers Chaos Legion. I still have my copy and the strategy guide for it.
Such a great game!
Not seeing one summon shown in the chaos legion part triggered me lol
They gotta remake gitaroo man, it’s a rhythm game classic
After playing RE4R id absolutely love a Code Veronica Remake in the RE engine, no tank controls though.👍🏿👍🏿
Astral Chain in Nintendo Switch feels like the sequel of Chaos Legion.
If people haven't realized yet, Chaos Legion is probably the spiritual predecessor to Astral Chain.
Chaos Legion, God Hand and Onimusha would be my instabuy if they remake them.
Project eden great coop game , driver parallel lines, the suffering 1 and 2 ,second sight , psi ops, hulk ultimate destruction.
Man I would love to see a new God Hand.
Drakengard 1 and 2
Great video brother, hope you're doing great!
Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. I know some consider it subpar compared to other entries in the series, but atmosphere and music wise was amazing. A remake would most definitely remove the stiffness of all characters (as well as some dialog upgrades could be performed 😅😅😅), and imagine how that bestiary would look on a modern console.
If you put the year of release of the game next to the game's title on the top right corner it would be great.
Ghosthunters, psi ops, headhunter, twister metal black be a few I'd want to see
Dragonball Z Budokai Tenckaichi 1, 2 and 3. Dragon Quest 8 should be ported to Switch, Final Fantasy 11 remastered in 14...
Man the entire PS2 Library pretty much. Underrated System.
Great games 🤘, FromSoft's eternal ring would be sick to see remade. ⚔🎮🛡
They should remake Darkwatch using Red Dead Redemption as its basis. Just copy that and boom, perfection.
I agree with Onimusha, Darkwatch, and Haunting Ground. I also say the entire Legacy of Kain series needs remakes along with Simpsons Hit & Run, Resident Evil Outbreak, and the original God of War.
I would pay anything if Capcom decided to remake Chaos Legion. The soundtrack alone is worth every penny.
Why didn't you summoned any legion in your Chaos Legion clip?
Love your list!
Thank you!
Oh Darkwatch-Darkwatch-Darkwatch... Such a fun shooter. Too bad High Moon Studios eventually became slaves in the Activision Blizzard mines of making fucking COD, of all things... What a shitty way to die...
The Last Guardian seems like the spiritual successor to Haunted Ground. :)
Rogue Galaxy is one of the most underrated action rpg on ps2. Really great game.
I’ll second that!
