[@pricebless]

Drakan and Shadow of Destiny are two of my favorite games I keep going back to.

[@retrogamer5536]

Drakan is one of my favorites too. You might want to try Pirates the Legend of Black Kat as it is similar to Drakan, but instead of a Dragon taking you to new areas, you have a ship. There is a large world to explore, a few quests to go on, and tons of treasure to search for.

[@pricebless]

RetroGamer Yes, I have that one,too. I like that one a lot. I have to finish it.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

We feel like idiots because we just picked up a mint CIB copy of Shadow of Destiny for $2 at a thrift store and sold it right away. Sounds like we should have kept it :(. Hopefully we can find another copy soon. Cheers!

[@CustomGamesStudios]

You guys are some of the best on KZbin. You have super positive energy!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Thanks for your kind words. Really means a lot to us. We just try keeping it real and fun. and hope folks enjoy that type of thing. The outside world is jammed full of drama and BS so we do everything we can to keep that shit out of the mix. Thanks again. Cheers!

Till I saw this special episode I did not remember that I had played Kings Field IV back in those days, maybe 14 years ago. When I saw the footage I feel like acquainted with that. Was a very strange game for me in that time, I don't know what I did with it. But thanks to you now I know that I played it, I feel weird, haha. Anyway, good job guys, now you have a new suscriber!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Awesome! Glad you found us and enjoyed the vid. We greatly appreciate the support. Cheers!

[@rmgb-tv]

This time I would like to nominate Sky Odyssey - this is a flight simulator that isn't too in depth or realistic, it just feels "right". Visually it's showing it's age in spots but there air some nice weather effects. You play as an explorer setting off to find treasures and uncharted islands. I found it refreshing that it wasn't about combat at all, and it has tons of atmosphere.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Never played that one. So many great games on the PS2! Gonna have to keep our eye out for that one. Thanks a ton for watching. Cheers!

[@EternalReplicant]

Seeing the colors on the PS symbols mixed up on your shirt is driving me nuts lol, cheers my dudes.

[@TumoFiji]

Yes! I finally found out the name of an old gem I rented once back in the day and could never remember what it was in this video: Drakan: the Ancient Gates! Looking forward to finding this one and playing it again, this time to completion! Thanks for this awesome 2 part series!

[@TumoFiji]

Update: picked this one up at my local game shop. Now only have to find time to play it. Cheers

[@willy7369]

Picking up the GameCube when it was released was awesome. But, when I heard about the PS2 n seeing the graphics it offered. Buying it was Amazing n the sheer size of the library there are 100’s of titles to still find and experience. Wes n Rob excellent video n tons of amazing creators🤘🏻🍻🍻🔥

@@GamingOffTheGrid Which is weird because normally we more know shit games and our taste is in question. lol

[@CoffinSkate]

The PS2 is my absolute favorite console of all time. There were so many fantastic games that came out for the console, such as Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2(2 being my favorite game of all time), Persona 4(one of my favorite games on the PS2), Soulcalibur III, Dynasty Warriors 4, Gauntlet Dark Legacy, the Jak and Daxter Trilogy, and that's just a handful. There are so many more that I didn't mention. One hidden gem that I have to bring up is Disney's The Haunted Mansion. Not based off the movie of the same name, it is actually one hell of a fun game. It's like an action horror game with some puzzle solving, and it has some of the most unique level design I've seen in any game in this sort of genre. High recommendation from me, and it's relatively cheap too. I haven't seen it go for anything above $15-$20.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

It's great for sure. Some awesome games you bring up here. We've never played The Haunted Mansion. We will be on the lookout for that one :). Thanks for watching and the recommendation. Cheers!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

For sure man! We could go on and on. Such a great library that covers every genre imaginable very very well. Such a badass console. Cheers!

[@michaeljensen1817]

Not sure if it would be considered a "hidden gem", but I would play the Activision Anthology all the time. I'm 41, so I can remember my mom having the Atari, and "helping" her play River Raid. So having all those Atari games to play on the PS2 was awesome when I was "grown-up". Love the different content, keep it evolving. Cheers. 🍻

Few games in there that I wanted but forgot about. Running out of space for the PS2 so videos like this help me sort out the good from the bad.

[@paxhumana2015]

My nomination for a hidden gem for the PS2 is Fire Pro Wrestling R/Returns. Fire Pro Wrestling R/Returns, along with Fire Pro Wrestling/A and Fire Pro Wrestling/A 2 for the GBA, not only brought the Fire Pro Wrestling series in, more or less, its original form, to the NTSB-U market, but I managed to snag a copy of the game for $8 at a flea market around the same year that it was released in the USA. Also, without that game, you would not have had a few more entries in the series, the much maligned Fire Pro Wrestling for the Xbox 360, and the much beloved Fire Pro Wrestling World for the PS4 and PC.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Great game indeed man and we do have it :). It's a lot of fun. Still prefer a couple of the Smackdown games to it but it's a good one for sure. Thanks for watching man. Cheers!

[@paxhumana2015]

@@GamingOffTheGrid , I would love it more if the menu was not a dumpster fire. Still, the AI is awesome and, even if you suck at the game, you can still give off a solid wrestling match. There are also literally around 200 other problems with the game that honestly need to be fixed, but if that was to happen, then this game would be the greatest professional wrestling game of all time. Oh, and one more thing, if you can score 8 PS2 controllers, and 2 PS2 multitaps, then you can play up to 8 people at the same time. Finally, I have two other hidden underrated PS2 gems that honestly do not get the love that they deserve and they are Dai Senruaku VII: Exceed, which is an upgraded version of the Xbox released video game Dai Senryaku VII (and, yes, both games are available in the NTSB-U market), and the other one is P.T.O.: Pacific Theater of Operations IV/Teitoku no Ketsudan IV, which is the fourth entry in the classically loved series that began on the SNES/NSFC, and, yes, it is also available for the NTSB-U market. Basically, if you love war simulators, then those titles are solid entries in the genre.

[@paxhumana2015]

@@GamingOffTheGrid , while the early WWF/WWE SmackDown! games did indeed have a lot more match types, as well as friendlier interface, and an awesome story mode, you simply have a lot more in the terms of customization in Fire Pro Wrestling R/Returns. Moreover, you can (to an extent), also have ring and arena customization, which was something that was not even a thing ins Western market released professional wrestling video games until at least WWE 2K16. Finally, here is a fun fact...the people that worked for the old AKI Corporation, as well as Yuke's Entertainment, BOTH have previously worked on the Fire Pro Wrestling series, and all of them, as well as Human/Spike/Spike Chunsoft, can trace their origins to the NES/FDS title of Pro Wrestling.

[@paxhumana2015]

@@GamingOffTheGrid , oh, and if you have a Sega Saturn, then a prequel to the Dai Senryaku games that I had mentioned in one of my previous posts, which is called Iron Storm, is also available for the Sega Saturn, and it is a solid entry in that series as well.

[@paxhumana2015]

@@GamingOffTheGrid , also, a bit of irony, while many people hate the arcade feeling WWE games, the harsh reality is that the people that formed AKI Corporation and Yuke's Entertainment also were former employees of Human, which is the company that founded the Fire Pro Wrestling series, so, in essence, their argument is stupid, baseless, and a lie.

Great list of games. A PS2 hidden gem I just discovered is "Power Drome". Looks like a generic piece-of-garbage futuristic racer at first glance. It's not. It has some of the best designed and interesting tracks I have ever played on, an amazing sense of speed, great characters, tight controls, beautiful graphics, and a great cockpit view. I actually enjoy it more than Wipeout Fusion! And best of all you can get it for $4 bucks on ebay. Buy it! (Skygunner is another amazing PS2 hidden gem I like to preach about...but that games goes for more than $100 CIB.)

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Welp, just ordered Power Drome :)! Thanks for spending our money lol. Thanks for watching and the recommendation. Cheers!

[@nicholasfairall405]

Kinectica, Red Star, and War of the Monstera, welp gotta get those games during Christmas.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

:)! All great games. Red Star is so badass man. It's a bit on the expensive side but definitely worth it. Running $40-$50 last I checked. If memory serves me it can also be downloaded on the PS3. If you don't have to have the physical you could go that route too. Thanks for watching. Cheers!

[@DoYouNerd]

Ooooh, King's Field is a deep dig--I used to play KF2 on PS1 a lot--loved it but man was it tough! I didn't know it made it to the PS2 as well--nice call Smash! Destroy All Humans really is a fun one--very nice MegaDan! I think I remember seeing previews of Shadow of Rome--but Chris has me really wanting to check this one out. Loved being part of this collab but now I feel like such a jackass for bringing up Maximo after John Riggs already covered it in part 1... Chronik calling out to the look of the system. It really, really did FEEL like a next gen console just off of the design itself. Plus Shadow of Memories/Destiny sounds incredible. War of the Monsters--nice--absolutely adore that game. We've had a lot of fun playing this--it's like a Rampage/Godzilla fighter!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Thanks so much for joining us guys! It was a total passion project. All of us coming together for the love of the PS2. Pretty awesome stuff. Cheers to that!

[@paxhumana2015]

@@GamingOffTheGrid , Destroy All Humans also had a pair of sequels, though only the first sequel got a PS2 release, as far as I know.

[@TXFDA]

I said it in the first part. But my recommendation is Ultimate Spider-Man. I dunno if it's considered a "hidden gem", or it's just not discussed as often. But I see people talking about Spider-Man 2 on PS2 all the time, when the topic of PS2 games comes up. But I NEVER hear about Ultimate Spider-Man. Ultimate Spider-Man plays a lot like Spider-Man 2. Open world, same kind of web swinging, random events around the city to do, collectibles, side activities like racing from point A to point B. But, here's the thing. The graphics aged better because it's stylized and more comic book-y and cartoony. It honestly looks great. The comic book aesthetic plays out with comic panels (not still images, everything's still properly animated...just in comic panels) which looks great. There's cameos from other Marvel characters throughout the story. You get to play as Venom at certain points. And overall, I think the games great, and better than Spider-Man 2. I definitely recommend it.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

It is a pretty underrated game thay doesnt get talked about enough! We enjoy it! Cheers!

[@reaganriggles8526]

Do You Nerd gets a pass for Dragon Quest because it's still going on to this day with spin offs and the many variations of the hero in Smash Bros. and Dragon Quest 8 was great on the PlayStation 2 because the guy who designed the characters in the Dragon Quest series also did the character designs in Chrono Trigger and the creator of Dragon Ball Z. Positivity to everyone ✌

[@DoYouNerd]

Aw yeah--Toriyama is an amazing artist in the fact that though his style doesn't deviate much from itself, he's created such iconic looking characters that run the gamut from manga, anime, and games and are often identifiable even by people who aren't familiar with the franchises. DQ8 on PS2 was such an eye opener of the way this series often manifest itself in our memories and a look into the incredible future of the games!
