Forums - Gaming Discussion - Great 2d PS2 games? What year is this?

   

    In all seriousness, I find myself looking forward to a great game on the last gen system again, this game looks fun, the animation looks great and from what I've been reading it's much deeper than it looks.  The game is called Odin Sphere and is coming out this month:

Before you ask what's so special about how the game looks, you have to check the videos of the game in action, they look A LOT better than the screenshots:

Pretty much the game I'm lookign forward to the most this month outside of importing Ouendan 2...

And it's apparently coming out in the US just a few weeks after the Japanese version, instead of a few months.

 Oh, yes.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Dude, it's coming out May 22 (18 days away).

 

It's coming out here before Japan, lol....

 In japan, it's on the 17. That's 5 days before the US. But that's STILL better than five months. A hell of a lot better.

Ah damn it, I was sure it was coming here frist, at least it's almost an identical date.

looks awesome, I myself wouldnt mind playing more side scollers, You know....with all the memory on the next gen systems, there would be enough memory to make a really long and replay valued side scroller, wonder if anyone will ever take the hint?? looks like this might be one!



I had an interesting experience yesterday... I saw a guy at my work playing GoWII (on a PS3). It looked frigging amazing.. and made me question even further why we need all this new, fangled graphics hardware. This looks pretty cool as well.

 Cause if God of War II looks that good on PS2, then God of War 3 is going to melt my brain that's why we need the new fangled stuff lol

Odin Sphere is one title I'm looking forward to, as well as Soul Nomad (2d sprites in 3d area, Strategy RPG).



Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

 I dunno anything about that game, I should check out info about it. I'm surprised I haven't heard about it before.
