The husband played Shadow of the Colossus. Beautiful visuals. I haven't heard of The Last Remnant. I'll check it out - thanks!Julie Soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079432453969916854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8322069713909968619.post-59402449606989262262009-08-23T09:55:09.186-04:002009-08-23T09:55:09.186-04:00Oh, i have first two (and played it through) on my...Oh, i have first two (and played it through) on my PC with emulator pcsx2 (you need at least CoreDuo 3.2 Ghz or higher to play it well). <br /><br />First one is brutal kick-and-slash all that moves-around (it's like prince of persia series gameplay, but more action and hellish)<br /><br />Second one is my favorite, it's brilliant though. Okami is wolf-goddess with somekinda mushroom assistant jumping on her head and helps any little boys and girls what to do. The best thing is you can perform any magic acts by brush, You draws magic. The story line is funny also - you must clear areas from plague, sent upon by awful "Orochi". <br /><br />Third one i never saw. <br /><br />Check Final Fantasy XII. I loved it most of other games for PS2. about 70 hours of "exploring worlds" experience. You don't need to fight, only set tactics for your 6 characters to perform automatically. <br /><br />Or, almost forgot .... check "ICO" and "Shadow of the Colossus". Two best adventure games on PS2 as well as Valkirie Profile 2 (also norse but very "japanese interpretaion" of things) and The Last Remnant (SQUARE Enix released PC version for this one).<br /><br />later, AlexUzhashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04361963612750987596noreply@blogger.com
