i want to get something entertaining, yet cheap, used at gamestop. preferably something with multiplayer, no football/baseball/basketball/soccer/golf/hockey games. i like shooting things, i don't want something that takes forever to learn.

any suggestions?

While you are at it, recommend to me some old ps1 games.

katamari damacy

awesome game, but i've already rolled the moon. but i haven't played the second one much. hm...

I know there is a joke here, but dammit if I'm not nonplussed on this one.

CATER TO MY NEEDS

There's always the Grand Theft Autos....

Metal Gear Solid
Bond 007 : Nightfire
Time Splitters

Done GTA, and TS is a little too stupid for my liking, but I'm interested in MGS. My impression was that it was pretty complex... is that wrong?

what about the Hitman one? I seem to remember Scotty D and my old rommie Kat-Nasty enjoying that one.

What I like about TS is the dual mission mode. It is really simple, though.

Metal Gear Solid is pretty complex, yeah... but you get to shoot things...? Each for the PS2 are fairly equal, but they do three difficulty levels in which to pass the game on.

devil may cry was a good game, and it looks like it meets the shooting requirement.

WWII, anyone?

Medal of Honor Frontline
Call of Duty
Brothers In Arms

Max Payne
Half Life
Splinter Cell

there's no shooting requirement, but keep em coming. i've beaten max payne and half life on the pc.

What happened to good ol' Twisted Metal?

Resident Evil 4?

Might not be able to find that used. It's not too complicated to play, but it's a difficult game.

How cheap? There's a bunch of the Greatest Hits titles for $20 each.

I bought Killzone and it was pretty fun even though I don't particularly like first person shooters.

Don't get Devil May Cry 2...it sucked. Get the first one or the new one (3) just came out in a special edition.

If you want something like MGS but a little easier try one of the Splinter Cell games.

All of the Prince Of Persia games are pretty good.

Amplitude. You must own this.

If you've heard of Guitar Hero (I think there was a thread about it here), it's by the same developers.

It's a music game where you hit notes on each of the tracks, get bounuses for hitting multiple tracks without messing up, etc. Its honestly the most addicting thing I have ever played. I've never logged more hours on a game. I've owned it for three years and I still would play it almost daily if It was here at school with me.

Some of the early tracks really suck (P.O.D. was particularly painful), but once you're done with them you never have to go back, and the later tracks re so much fun to play through it's more than worth it.

You can get it for 14 bucks at amazon, I think its getting hard to find new or even used.

Highly, highly, highly recomended. Its a shame this game was so overlooked.

i actually liked the ssx games which you can get super cheap...

tony hawk games

medal of honor is fun

What you really want is an Atari, admit it old man.

SSX kicks ass

amplitude and it's predecesor, frequency, are both fun. how about the latest iteration of gran turismo--"a" type, i think?

we've got GT A-Spec, but I'm not that into these realistic racing games so much. i'll look into amplitude... the crappy crap music doesn't make it too painful?
