So it has been a long time since I wrote anything here and I must say that one of these days I have been thinking a way to spend my last week at home before leaving for the university doing something fun. Unfortunately I was not in the mood to go out so I had to find a way to entertain myself at home. I thought “What would be better that playing an old game using an old console?” You see having a PS2 is not a waste of space at all; my brother doesn’t play any PS2 games anymore so I can have it all to myself so this article is for the ones that have a PS2. There are some really good games that you can afford and they are fun. So I made a list:
1. I will begin by mentioning one of my favorites which you probably all know, Kingdom Hearts 1, Kingdom hearts 2. These games are long and they have an actual plot, meddling new characters (Organization 13 and the three protagonists: Riku, Kairi and Sora) with the magical world of Walt Disney classics and popular Final Fantasy characters. Now this was, in my opinion, a risky attempt at creating something new but Square Enix totally nailed it. They are very popular and they also have sequels and prequels. I recommend it!
2. I, am a sucker for a good plot, but I also like being able to move around a lot . So what could be better than moving around with a team that you can control however you want? I am talking about Final Fantasy X-2 , though there’s not much of a plot, you get to explore different locations and learn a lot of different abilities also the dresspheres are quite amazing (I am a sucker for nice outfits also) and I have to say that it is very relaxing playing FF X-2.
3.For those who like more extreme things, I recommend Devil May Cry 3 , I found it difficult at first but the story is actually really good, some bosses are very hard you once again get to explore a lot and There is a variety of combo attacks. Also the main hero is quite an interesting character. It also contains some puzzles that are not particularly hard.
4.I haven’t been able to play this game a lot mainly because I watched my brother playing it but I can tell you that the whole trilogy is a real gem. I am talking about Jack and Dexter. I know it seems more of a boyish type of game but trust me I had a fun time watching as my brother played, and I myself enjoyed playing part of it. Now the plot is original and interesting, and basically the main theme is that you travel in the future and try to find your friends. If I had to buy only one game of the trilogy I would pick Jack and Dexter 2 . The third game is also fun but I find the second more atmospheric at some points.
5. Um…I am not particularly fond of playing games that are inspired after movies but I made an exception for this one because I was so in love with the movie that I became curious. I am talking about A series of unfortunate events. Of course you get to invent defensive mechanisms, to explore spooky places and I must say that although the graphics are not that detailed I have to say that they are quite impressive. Also you get to pick whoever you want to play as and solve many puzzles, time challenges and also there are hidden passages and mazes. I am really excited about this one and if you are not too fond of difficult bosses then you must give it a try!
So if you want to use your old PS2 and you have no idea what game to play, you can rent or buy one of these games that I guarantee you’ll love!!! I think they will inspire you too!
I will probably write about other old consoles too as well as for the PC, let me know if you have a personal favorite that is affordable and fun or if you think I should have mentioned other games too! Have lots of fun!!!
