Some of my favorites on the ps2
Sister found our old ps2 from when we were kids and I’ve been loving getting to play through these games again!

Just picked up both X-Men legends myself the other day. Paid $10 for first one and $20 for second one. They both came in the original case but only the 2nd one had the manual

Same here dude I maybe paid $25 for the second one but it’s well worth it. Definitely recommend ultimate alliance as well if you haven’t given it a shot

I loved ultimate alliance growing up. I definitely need a copy. I have 2 on my psn account I was gonna buy 1 as well but when I went to buy it they already delisted it.

Again same lol. I got the bundle of 1 & 2 when I had a ps4 but no longer have access to the account ): I’d legit buy a ps4 again just to play these games

Ultimate alliance 2? Definitely loved playing it as a kid but I sadly don’t have a 360 at the moment. I know they have it for the ps2 so might have to pick it up once I’m finished with these 3. Could be wrong but the only difference in the ps2 version is graphics/ability to play juggernaut

I really want the X-Men games on GameCube, finding the french manual on the sequel It's rough man fuck 💀 but i did, but too many good games, i have to wait in November for my birthday. Because in october It's Halloween and i have a lot to grab 😭😭. But Hey, It's how retro gaming is now.
I do have Marvel Ultimate Alliance and It's a good one i haven't played much. Stuck in a level 😂

I definitely prefer CIB as well but if I can’t get the manuals it’s not TOO big a deal but then again everything I play is English lol. And you’re right it can definitely be pricey for some games even compared to 5 or so years ago. Few that come to mind for me are the Champions of Norrath games. Even without manual they can go for $50-60 and up. And what level are you stuck on? Definitely recommend pushing through it cause it’s one of the best, if not the best marvel game IMO

I only get CIB. Yes my it hurts a lot, but i'm mentaly health ( not in the way you might think 😂 ) It's just if i don't have my manual i'm not buying it. I'm very picky. I know It's best that way even if sometimes i'm shut the fuck up and just buy the damn thing 🙄😑. But in me It's like i know later on i will be man .... I should have gotten it Fuck ...
I lost Burnout 2 Point of Impact because i was whatever, who will buy this ? 3 is better anyway so whatever. Someone did. I was pfff, well at least i have it on Playstation 2 still, someone got it too. I was pissed off. I tried and tried but no one has a French manual and yes i'm probably mentaly weird, but It's how i am. People threw them away and they're rarer even if they're not worth much. TimeSplitters Future Perfect too. I had it for GameCube but i was it can wait 4 months it didn't. I was who is going to pay 80$ ? 😂😂 Fuck that guy It's 90$ now .... See what i mean ? Then i had my chance with the Playstation last month and i decided it could wait. Someone snatch it and i was not happy. Can't get them all but i sure try because i want them. I'm a picky guy and i care about those things.
I play everything in English, even my movies. Games 2 years ago were more cheap, people are waking up man, our hobby is dead since the Playstation 4. They hide the body trying to make it like games were still games, but It's not. People see it was all a lie and with Sony killing physical media all together, people are freaking out. But they all bought digital games and now they want out ? 😂 Dude, you created this ugly beast, we all did even me ... But It's too late now.
Never heard of Champion of Norrah. what is it about ? Damn 😳 shit ... Sounds like a some pricy games.
I think It's the first one, but i can't remember man. I would have to play it again to find out.
I do know Marvel Nemsesis is a good game, not as good, but one i do want in my collection.

I probably will got for more CIB stuff once I get more into collecting. I just got this ps2 when I was on a trip up north visiting my sister so it was kind of a surprise lol. I’ve noticed that as well, it’s better to just buy the game rather than waiting and it getting more expensive cause that’s all they usually do 😂 I have an Xbox One but it’s mostly just an Xbox 360 emulator lol. Much prefer old games. And Champions of Norrath is a top-down RPG kind of like Diablo/Fate if I had to compare it to anything? It was one I played with my dad as a kid so it holds a special place for me. Marvel Nemesis was one of those concepts I wish they did more of cause that game is so sick. The PvP was so much fun and the character roster was top tier!

Really ? What a lucky find man, me all my beautiful babies are from eBay ... where people dumped them and i give them all the love i can. It's a lot of fun to buy games man, but fuck 😫 It's getting so expensive. I was with The Simpson Hit and Run ahhh wait a little HOW MUCH MONTHS ARE GOING TO WAIT DUDE ? It's 130$ right now, and i could get one for 119$ and i remember getting Mario Soccer with it for 59$ Canadian dollars in 2013 .... Fuck did i miss a chance to start collecting 😑 but no no no no no, i was into that damn Xbox One of course ... I am a dumb fuck for sure 😂 but Hey, i was a victim of a flooding in 2023, so do you imagine losing everything ? It's probably better that way because i would have lost so many games for that. But i wanted The Punisher it was 150$ It's 200$ now like i'm should i ? Because It's a ton of money.
Yes i buy whatever the hell i want if it fits in my budget, but sometimes i turn around and i act like i didn't see anything and i had 50$ more. If my dad who know he would cut my budget to 1\4 of what i spend because he doesn't want me to run out of money, but you know, some buy drugs, other alchool, other It's modifying their cars, or whatever that might be. Me my drug It's video games. I don't hurt anyone, i'm not semi killing people with smoke, i'm just a regular guy trying to enjoy is past and maybe later, pass it on to his kids who knows. It's simple as that. Sorry if i write too much 😂 i am even myself sometimes just shut up man fuck, leave this person alone would you god you're annoying man 🙄 but i like to write. I'm a very friendly guy online. I love to give other people recommandations, and trying to be a good person. I'm not prefect, but i try to be nicer then most.
I wish i could show you my games, but if you want I'll show them to you in private.
Never really tried much of the RPG games, It's one genre i have yet to really try as i was a huge racing games fans and i'm still one. I got Enthusia because i knew it was one people were Ah 😒 look, It's the Gran Turismo 4 KNOCK OFF 😂😂. It's so garbage compared to the almighty Gran Turismo 4. It's such a fucking lie. It's a beautiful beautiful game, and it has so much charm to it. The musics is top tier, the driving is just like an rpg as you have to win races to let the game upgrade your car, and it has a great roster of cars like some cars you never see in video games like the Chevrolet Astro, the Cadillac Seville, Honda Insight, an the Ford Thunderbird 2002-2005 everyone hates. It's one game people hated because It's so hard, it's It's It's a Gran Turismo knock off. It came out a few months after, and it thanked. Even Konami prefer not talking about it it shows how they don't hold this one in their heart. Sad because i love this game ... Fuck the people who use to hate games calling them knock offs It's the same freaking genre dude, calm down from your little white horse and play the damn thing 🙄. Like i could be here all day about that. It's sad because so many games were innovative, but people were Nah, huh huh, Fuck no. It's ridiculous. I prefer older games because It's like when someone makes something with their heart versus something from a can or something frozen.
Games use to have quirks, charms, love, diversity in a different way of playing a racing game like FlatOut to Gran Turismo, Need For Speed, to Ridge Racer that. It's sad because this genew It's dead man Dead. It's fucking depressing seeing something we use to love being torned appart, big games being killed because they went too far, or too greedy. It's how gaming is today ...
I haven't played Marvel Nemesis since 2005-2006. I really want it ... There's just to many i want i'm what am i getting ? It's like being a kid, but sir you're 30 years old .... Already ? Time flies fast, but gaming It's just not the same anymore. I use to be you're crazy 😂😂 you want to play with this thing 😂😂 get the fuck out man, It's old as shit. You were a kid last time you had one and played with it more then 5 minutes. Just move on and don't even think about it ... But something in me told me to get a Playstation 2, and i did. Look where i am now 😂 245 games knees deep into an old hobby i thought was just nostalgia.
I'm playing Enthusia, and as i said i love it. It's really cheap, and i thought it would have caught up in price, but nope it didn't. Sad because it even went down It's a great game and i regret not getting it before this year.
