PS2 is backwards compatible right? Could someone please recomend PS1 titles for me that are still worth playing today (other than FF7 I am sure a remake is coming at some point)? Thanks! :D

Alundra
Breath of Fire III
Breath of Fire IV
Chrono Cross
Dragon Warrior VII
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VIII
Final Fantasy IX
Final Fantasy Chronicles
Grandia
Lunar Series
Persona 2

Suikoden II
Tactics Ogre
Thousand Arms
Vagrant Story
Valkyrie Profile
Vandal Hearts
Wild Arms
Xenogears

If you do get a PS2 I'd say try the MGS series (granted I think you said you dislike stealth). I believe the Essential Collection is $25 at Circuit City this week, and for 3 games you might as well try it out.


 Wow, thats alot! Thank you. I'll probably try MGS, but I don't dislike stealth- just have no interest as I have never tried them. Only time I have done anyhiting stealthy was in forsaken fotress in Wind Waker, and that was kinda lame.

 

Also, holy crap this thread got huge XD 

The best thing is to get a modded PS2 not very expensive now and play all these games above. Then buy a 360 and never look back. It will be cheaper and a better option. If not just buy a 360 cause it has better games coming out this year and you can guarantee none of its games will be delayed(K2) or be huge letdowns(Lair, Haze, Heavenly sword). It is more reliable with the new Falcons chips and has better online and better graphics on most games and that seems to never change. So if you want the console with the best games and best graphics on most games go for 360. Its also proven that more ppl spend time on the 360 than the Wii and waaaay more time on it than the PS3(there was a thread about this on an article).
