I hate them. Just rented them yesterday. Man, do they suck. They are Burnout and Test Drive. The commercial for Burnout just blew me away until I played. it. These 2 games are the exact same thing except for a few more levels and cars in Test Drive. The music in Burnout is as said by many people as "sounds rather than music." Do not rent these games or buy these games. Whenever you want to play a game that you're not sure about getting or not, rent it first. Save yourself 40 bucks before buying.

The only Playstation 2 games I've played that are worth it are Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec and Medal of Honor: Frontline.
I already bought GT3. I'll be buying Frontline next week. I would like to play Grand Theft Auto 3 but I am not the legal age yet. I'm also not old enough to play porn-related videogames (whoever knows where you can get some-tell me-is it in secret rooms of the stores?).

 

Other good PS2 games: Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Grand Theft Auto 3, Final Fantasy X.... those are all great, as well as the two you mentioned.

 

I like Burnout. Its fun to play with a group of friends and for general trash-talking purposes...not the most realistic game but its not supposed to be.

 

If you really want superbly fun driving game, rent and XBOX and RalliSport Challenge... my god taht game is addictive (rubs his thumbs to get feeling back into them)

 

Have you played "Wreckless" on XBOX? That is a good car game. You ram cars and jump off buildings. The only thing I hate is the XBOX controller since it has too many buttons and get confused

 

We should start a thread identifying bad PS2 games that aren't worth renting or buying. . .

My short list.

Namco's Ridge Racer V - (no 3rd person viewing option in 2-player mode).

Victorious Boxing - pure crap, stick to Knockout Kings

Midway's NBA Hoopz - better than the last version of NBA Jam on PS One, but no where near as good as EA's NBA street.

989's Formula One 2001 - Better graphics than EA's F1 titles, but even on the EASY setting the game is way to difficult to play. Thus, taking all of the fun out of the game. . .

3DO's High Heat 200x - The graphics and gameplay are absolutely unrealistic. . . Stick to Acclaim's version or last year's EA Tripleplay. . .

 

As said above, Medal of Honor: Frontline is a very good game. I just want to say they did a very good job on making the music. Classical music instruments never sounded better in a videogame like this before!

Yes, I will play GTA3 when I get my own apartment so that my family won't see the bad activities going on in the game. I've heard so much about this game-killing civilians and cops, doing it with hookers in taxis in the alleys, stealing cars of course, anything the guy wants to do
