PS2 Games Worth Getting for Less Than $10

[Fe 26]

It seems like the PS2 is getting close to being on it's last legs in the eyes of retailers. Other than a handful of games, many used titles can be gotten for less than $15. I recently picked up Silent hill 2 for under 15 and SH 4 for under $10. Persona 3 can be gotten for about the same and old niche stuff like GunGrave OD can be gotten for less than $5.

A lot of people bitch about games not being worth $50 but now that many (if not most) PS2 games can be gotten for under $15, what is worth giving a try?

Off the top of my head, some of my favs for under 10 would be

FF12
GunGrave
GunGrave OD
Chaos Wars
Persona 3
Metal Saga
Battleship Gunner 2
Ring Of Red
Xenosaga (lol, cut scenes)
Tokobots
Drakengard

Warning: All of those games are kind of f-chan.


Anyway, I thought this was worth talking about since we are reaching the end of the console's life cycle. A lot of those games are flawed, but for 5 bucks, they are worth a shot. And in a year or two, you won't find them outside of ebay.

Xenosaga is awful diapers filled with creamed spinach.
Dragon Quarter should be added to that list in its place.

I still think I <3 Katamari and Tekken Tag are the best 2 PS2 games.

You could get ALOT more for your money if you play PC games.... See Steam Holiday sale thread.

I am fond of the ratchet and clank, sly cooper, and jak and daxter games (in that order).

Gamestop has bins of 10 and 5 dollar ps2 games and if you are lucky and the store has a good selection you can walk out with gold. I've walked out with too much good stuff to name, but Castle Shikigami 2 was a huge surprise that I paid $4 for.

I think they think of me as the weird ps2 guy now, which is funny since I always bought Xbox/Gamecube games when the system was current.

The PS2 is for playing 2D game compilations and not much else.

One of the best hauls I ever made was Psi-Ops, Space Channel 5 Pt 2, and The Red Star from Circuit City before it closed. All new, for $20.

Fantavision for $3 was also a steal. I also once got Virtua Fighter 4 Evo for $2 at Best Buy.

Isn't Gamestop ceasing PS2 sales very soon?
