After playing many of the big holiday releases on the 360(Assassins Creed, Mass Effect, Halo 3, COD4) I am bored, and felt like playing some PS2 again... well because lets face it... PS2 is awesome!
I got FF12 and Okami, and both the Kingdom Hearts games lying around
! Never really gotten far in any of tem. Except for FF12! I got 20 hours in that game, but I havent touched it for half a year!
Other games I thought about buying: Persona 3, God of War 2, Bully, Manhunt 2, God Hand and Rogue Galaxy.
I am looking for something with an excellent story and captivating world. None of the games I have played for 360 or in this generation for any platform, has managed to grab me, by the way MGS3 and GTA3 and Vice City did. Does games dont only have great stories, with good scripts and voice acting, but also great worlds that take you in. And IMO, thats something that no amount of normal mapping or HDR or some other fancy next gen effects can replace.
Stories I also enjoyed on PS2: San Andreas, FFX, MGS2, Freedom Fighters, God of War, Devil May Cry 3.
I know these kinda of threads keep popping up, but I have to say it. Stories is really my main motivation for finishing a game. Immersion has become a key aspect of myself enjoying a game these days. Highscores and beating the bosses and finding the secret areas or collecting all the stars, really don't have an appeal for me anymore. Granted, maybe I should be watching a movie or reading a book instead, but I love good stories in games.
