Devil May Cry, FFX, GTA 3, Jak & Daxter, MGS 2, Silent Hill 2.
I had these over the years. I had never been so excited than I was for MGS 2 back then. I watched the E3 demo I got on VHS with some PlayStation magazine over and over and over.

Zoomer talk
My moms decision to buy Ace Combat 4 for my brother and I for Christmas of 2001 was instrumental to who I am today. I was 3 All she knew was we liked planes and there was a plane on the cover. I cannot imagine where I would be if she had decided on any other game.
I played that goofy anime storied arcade flight sim and its sequel so much as a young child. For me its a game like those speedrun autists can play like the back of their hand. I know that game front to back and do a yearly playthrough just to reminisce about those days of early childhood sitting way to close to a 12" CRT.
I cant even tell if its a good game anymore or if I am just conditioned to love it deeply.
I'm glad we moved on from these toxic, racist games. Luckily we live in the golden age of gaming in its best year ever with incredible atemporal titles such as Dead Space Remake and Spider-man 2.
The saddest part is that 90% of this image board was not alive or a literal baby at this point in time.
But I was a huge FF mark so I went for FFX first. I got GTA3 for Christmas since I distinctly remember playing it on the TV while my great grandfather watched (he was bemused and encouraged me to randomly run people over). The following year I got Jak and Daxter and MGS2 together and played them back to back. It was such a good and optimistic time for vidya.
Well, official way by default you go to the store, look at the art, read info and look at screenshots at the back cover and decide.
Advanced way is to buy vidya magazines, read them at home and decide, what you want to play, later.
Also you either obtain writing cd/dvdrom or find a friend with one, borrow his games and copy them (don't forget, now you are also obliged to make copies of your games your friend would want, if he would bring you clean cd/dvd).
Before cd/dvd there were floppy drives, but, while i have seen and used them, it was in early age of mine, when other friends didn't have their PCs yet. Thankfully we had Norton Commander back then.

These four games are something special
When you had a job at the time it probably wasn't a problem. I had to save up my allowance money and work after school to afford them or got some games for b-day and Christmas.
I bought GTA Triple and DMC and I shared games with friends, so we all played different games without having to buy each one.
All of those games are good and still remember to this day.
The only good games there are MGS2 and Silent hill tho
>hating on pre edgy and mature jak
>not liking ico
cmon man
ico was precursor for all the walking simulator games. Well, that makes it true playstation title
it's a legend of zelda clone retard
Ico is a boring walking sim with nothing in common with Zelda.
ah yes a little boy saving a girl
totally original and has nothing to do with zelda™

Fuck off GTA 3 is still fun as fuck to this day. Moreso than anything rockstar did after San Andreas.
You sound like a homosexual
Only one I can really agree on is GTA
I hate that game with a passion because it made open world slop a reality
Wooo we got a bad boi in the house haha

Name your top 5 games right now
>name my based list of games for some smelly retard to dunk on and try to own me epic style
not falling for it. go back to your walking simulator.
Are there any games at all that you like? Or are you just feeling like a le quirky contrarian today.
i haven’t played a video game in thirty years
so you quit your manchild hobby just so you can be a contrarian manchild on a board dedicated to video games. Sounds perfectly logical zoomzoom
i’m a 72 year-old man
nah, you 18 at max and shitposting for yous. Consider killing yourself and no more yous for you zoomzoom
nagger
Nice bait.
nice ass
>mgs
>silent hill
>games
piss off kojima
All of those games are mid and aged like milk.
The same will be said about your favourite games after enough time passes. Zoomers truly have no taste.
you don't. you play Crazy Taxi again 🙂
Dark Alliance was pure trash for diablo shit eaters
by not being a child

>Ico
nobody actually bought that
Back when we actually had video games
jak is fucking slop eater filth.
It was better back then, when bitter retards parroting phrases they read in magazines were more easily ignored.

how do you decide now?
Get everything that grabs your interest.
i wanted all of them so i went to the iso store and holy shit they gave them all to me for free!
I would definitely pick GTA3, not even a question. I don't think zoomers understand how cool GTA3 was on release.

By seeing GTA 3 at your rich friend's house on release.
ICO and FF X
I went with gta3 and silent hill 2. Mostly because I played gta2 and silent hill 1 on ps1.
I was living in Mexico at the time so I bought pirated copies of them all at Tepito.

Play the demo disc and see if you like any of them
Of these games only DMC and Jak & Daxter have good gameplay.
I remember Ico being one of my first PS2 games. GTA3 came soon after.
gt3 is peak s/o/vl
