Damn,

I m interested in SH but I wondering if I should not go directly to SH2 ...

both games are pretty expensive (rare hardcore used online games in France are always expensive)

SH 2 is the best RPG on the ps2 imo, but you have to play the first one to understand the story better

you can skip SH3 (new story& characters and a little disappointing)

Great that you mentioned Shadow of Destiny, that was one of my favorites for the PS2, is your list was a little bit longer you would have to include Ring of Red, that game was a true gem....

Ring of Red was indeed an under-appreciated gem

It certainly deserve a spot in there

I really need to re-play it

Where is Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria and Chaos Legion...?

Valkrie 2, is alittle underrated true but these games imo are more deserving

as for CL, it had hype and apperciations from the fans

 

@khuutra

I knew you would say that....

Mmm... Silmeria was highly underrated because it came out near the release of Final Fantasy XII... and imo VP2 is FAAAAAR better then FFXII ever could be.

True atleast what little it had people loved chaos legion for a time, a short time but a time no less, im not really sure about godhand though i did enjoy it, i didn't like its art-style VS chaos legion though.

iisn't Xenogears another game made by square-enix?  Xenosaga is a 3 game story made  by bandia namco, anyway I live in the U.S. found RoR for $20 on amazon so I'm gonna buy it soon(if it's still there)

now that you mention it chaos, the series that is Xenosaga itself is underrated on PS2 overall.


yeah I meant to say the entire series, Xenosaga episode I was the best of the 3.  Xenosaga 2 is what screwed it up IMO. new voice actors, couldn't buy items/weapons, seperation of human and A.W.G.S. this is what killed it, Bandia Namco try to go back with the same formula from one but it was to late for the series.....

Xenosaga actually got some hype, i doubt any rpg lover never played it or at least heard of it

am talking about under-appreciated not just underrated
