BTW, ZOE2 is out of print. So go get it if you don't have it.

From me! Me me me! Selling a perfect copy, c'mon... Link, down there.

Yes I know, shameless, but I have quite a few of the things listed here up for grabs. If anyone's looking for them, they're all non-GH and complete. I need the cash so I can go grab some of these other ones I missed.

try to get r-type delta and castlevania: sotn.. those are the only two PSX games that i can think of right away that you'd want to immediately pick up.

[arjue]

Are specifically looking for XX, the j-release or the domestic x2?

well, I live in australia, so both are equally viable.

I gotta figure out a way to play them too.

I'd recommend these:
Devil May Cry
ICO
Klonoa 2
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Sly Cooper
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando
Jak 1 & II
Gran Turismo 3 (until 4 comes out)
Tokyo Extreme Racer Zero
Zone of the Enders: Second Runner
TimeSplitters 2
Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance
Mark of Kri
...and others I can't think of right now...enjoy!

Any fan of racing needs to play Burnout and Burnout 2. The finest arcade racers ever, I think.

The original's Survival Mode remains one of the hardest challenges I've ever faced, and has tracks with six-minute laps. Plus you can drive a Tow Truck and a Bus the wrong way on the freeway.

Burnout 2 has some amazing replay value. It's got a deep scoring system, the time trials can be PGR-tough, and Crash Mode never gets old (especially with friends). It also boasts one of the best in-game engines on the system - there's so much on-screen activity at such a high rate of speed with no slowdown.

The games are different enough to warrant owning each.

15 bucks at Circuit City. The tag may say 49.99, but trust me, it's 15 bucks.

Same goes for BoF: Dragon Quarter, but that ones 10 bucks.

[Mzo]

I know I said I'd wait for ya, but 15 bucks...

Sorry, Nomi.

Pwned by Circuit City. Hey, at least I bought something else, right?

And Bio, was the original Burnout any good? I love, love, love the sequel, but that's because of the crash mode. Is that in there, too?

The original Burnout's great, but for different reasons compared to Point of Impact. It's got a silly banjo-laced soundtrack (no custom soundtrack as in the XB PoI). There's a lot more emphasis on pure traffic dodging rather than the sequel's focus on boost-chaining - the original's much more of a twitch experience. The main GP mode is a lot shorter too. Survival Mode is brilliant - you have to drive three laps of each course without crashing once. It's haaaaaard, on the six-minute-per-lap Marathon courses in particular. There's also an interesting Free Run mode, which lets you cruise the courses with no traffic (kind of against the Burnout formula, but hey, there it is). And as I mentioned, there's a Tow Truck and double-decker Bus as unlockable vehicles - pure fun, especially in multiplayer. It doesn't look as good as the sequel, obviously, but keeps the sense same sense of speed without slowdown.

No Crash Mode, unfortunately, but you can save individual crashes to the mem card or hard drive - a feature that's really missed in the sequel.

It's not as flashy, deep, or long as the sequel, but it's got a couple different features that I think make it worth owning. You can probably find it for $10 or so new, which is definitely worth it.

Cool.

I got the PS2 Burnout2 for free... is there any reason that I'd want to pick up the Xbox Director's Cut?
