Pick a Game to buy! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

YaWhateva · 10-28-2004, 06:27 PM

Ok, this weekend at toys r' us they are having a sale, buy two ps2, gc, or xbox games and get the third for free. I have decided on GTA San Andreas and Paper Mario 2, but I need one more game. I have a PS2 and a GC so an xbox game is out of the question.

Any ideas here?

How about ATV Offroad Fury 3 or Burnout 3?

i recommend the dot hack series..

hybrid fantasy world in a near-future story.. reminds me of the matrix in feel (less fake-o black leather, though).. though the individual games are short, they are also pretty cheap.. and there are four of them in all, including one 45 minute OAV (anime) per game.. i'm playing my way through the second one now and it's a beast that won't die..

captured me from the get-go..

This'll be the first sale like this I've missed in a few years, but the cash situation's too tight now. Last year I got Simpsons Hit & Run, Viewtiful Joe, and Disgaea- played the hell out of all of them.

You may want to have a fourth game as a backup, since the sale's been on since Sunday and not everything may still be in stock. I'd go for Phantom Brave or the GC's Harvest Moon.

It's not a full-price game, but you cannot lose with Katamari Damacy. X-Men legends, for all its flaws is a very fun game as well. Maybe check out Tales of Symphonia as well.

Katamari Damacy, Burnout 3, or the new Lunar game are all good choices.

If you haven't played any of the Ratchet and Clank series, well... don't let those escape notice. I thoroughly enjoyed the first two, and I'm waiting for the third.
Check 'em out.

oh shit i forgot about xmen legends and tales of symphonia. Its between those two. Thanks a lot for the tips guys.

Symphonia. Easy choice between those two.

Too bad the sale isn't going on next weekend. Third Age comes out on the 2nd. :/

Redjake · 10-29-2004, 07:27 AM

Burnout 3 - definitely a must-buy!

enderfax · 10-29-2004, 07:33 AM

BO3 is a rental. Great game, but gets old pretty quick, at least it did for me. Even playing Crash Mode with all the cool cars I unlocked got lame pretty quick.

silver26 · 10-29-2004, 09:30 AM

You have 2 awesome games picked already, but they are both really long, so something like BO3 would be a good game to be able to jump right into if you need a break from the other 2 games.
