Sony PS2 Buying Guide + Great Games & Hidden Gems!

[@coolen]

PS2 emulation has improved an unbelievable amount over just the last few years. Games that used to have visual glitches and unplayable amounts of slowdown run perfectly today. For many of us buying a PS2 along with the games isn't an option but emulation is a damn near perfect alternative, it's gotten as close to the real deal as 5th gen emulation.

[@SammyLaffy]

How do i get emulation, or how can get play ps2 games without the console

@@SammyLaffy you can emulate so many different ways. Quite a few handhelds that’ll run a good chunk if not all PS2 library. You can emulate on PC. Can also make a developer account on a new Xbox and emulate that way as well.

[@DukeDudeston]

This is true... I have recently modded my PS3 Slim and I have been enjoying my PS2 games on that... Crystal clear images, plus the ability to use any controller - currently using an offbrand "Switch" controller in my PS3 has made me enjoy playing PS2 games again.

Great video, as always! You’ve sold me. I have every modern console possible (SteamDeck, Rog Ally, Series X, PS5, OLED switch) but I feel myself being drawn to picking up something classic like the PS2. I was born in the early 90s but didn’t really find games until college so I’ve missed out on the classics!

Did you edit your comment because the first version didn’t include the bracket of all your consoles?

I love that you two are still making videos together after all these years, there's usually bit of fall off from Collaborations after some time but you are both carrying the retro game scene very well.

I really enjoyed you two's video here about the PS2 and some of the additions, but the games were really enjoyable to learn about.

@MetalJesusRocks it's a major issue with the first 2 slim models, they fixed it in the third model. There's a bunch of fixes like using, tape, glue, and even 3d printed parts. But if you weren't unaware I'd suggest checking some of your discs

A video about a retro console?Metaljesus is back! I’m watching this at least 10 times to catch up on PS2 info. I love the PS2 fat with a bitfunx IDE to SATA adapter. The Gamestar adapter I had caused games to stutter. I like collecting physical games but playing backups of the games from HDD. I think it’s the best of both worlds.

[@crunchyfrog555]

I just want to say thank you , Jason for your hidden gems videos over the years. Of all the videos on Yotube I think I've found yours to be the best in this regard. I've enjoyed quite a few games I had overlooked or hadn't heard of (especially on PS2). You seem to put out some decent unknown games, plus advise on stuff pretty damned well. Thanks again. And wouldn't that Splashdown remater potentially be perfect for re-release on the Switch?

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Thank you so much!! And yes, a Splashdown remaster would be amazing on Switch.

[@stephenshelottiii3272]

I’m glad you guys covered multiple options for PS2. I would have added the 8bitdo bluetooth adapter for modern controllers and the GBS-C for a budget option for upscaling. I think covering emulation and soft modding as an option was amazing. PS2 is a great system to collect for but some of the best games are unattainable for the average person. Sidenote: if you soft mod the console you can also use a software upscaler called GSM if you use a component cable. It’s not perfect and doesn’t work on every game but, when it does it looks great.

Sony did a limited PX-300 here in UK around 2010 which is a PS3 integrated into a TV. Managed to get one a while back and really clean graphics.

PS2 games have gone up in price by a lot. Many games that were once $5 less than ten years ago are now $15+, which is a big increase even when adjusting for inflation. It's better to just find ways to play the games illegitimately.

[@rafaeldoraguille9169]

Always great to see you uploading updated guides! I have a couple of stuff to add: the BlueRetro/8BitDo Wireless Adapters are great accessories too. As for the HDMI options, it's important to remember some of them may not support low resolutions and are straight out incompatible with the PS1 retrocompatibility and a lot of homebrews (as the menu of many of them is super low res). I believe most upscalers can handle this fine, but the cheap adapters such as the PS2 to HDMI meet this limitation.

CONTROVERSIAL: due to the tendency of PS2 DVD drives to be somewhat fragile and temperamental I have to advocate using Open PS2 Loader through an HDD/network share as opposed to discs, which does make the need to buy games somewhat superfluous.

[@richardwatson5730]

Great video boys! It's sad that my largest and simultaneously most neglected collection is the PS2. I absolutely loved this entire generation, but of the big three at the time, I feel like the ps2 aged the worst. Possibly because I used it to mostly play ps1 games, being broke as dirt there was a plethora of loose disks at my local pawn shop, but also renting dvds from blockbuster & hollywood video. Others thought it was cutting-edge, but for me it was utilitarian. I traded my dreamcast to a buddy with my entire collection for his ps2, only to keep playing ps1 games and watching dvds while I was working the night shift in the pre-wifi days. When the video rental stores and funcoland were liquidating, I went (game)crazy and loaded up several disc binders. But by this time, my downtime was limited with my job, education, and starting a family. The 360 took over whatever free time I had once it dropped & damn, Gears of War and Halo 3 were awesome late into the AM with a mic. I went back a few years afterwards and completed Black, FF12, MGS3, and GTA:VC. Great experiences. Now I need to Chisel the back-catalogue down before the hardware kicks the bucket. Thanks for the suggestions!

Here in the UK, I always bought the monthly Official Playstation 2 Magazines (OPS2M) along with the demos. There were 100 Official PlayStation demos released, and I currently own 81 of them. I have been searching long and hard for the remaining 19 and I can never find them anywhere. Apparently demo 100 does exist but I am still yet to even see a cover of it. The demos are cool, collectible and hardly get mentioned in the collecting world. The reason I like them is because every now and then demos produced some oretty cool stuff, like add-ons for games, and sometimes even games that never even ended up having a release in the West. Did you guys in the US have the OPSM demos and such?

Always loved these buying guide/hidden gems videos back in the day, they've really helped me to discover a lot of great games that I'd never even heard of before. Would love to see other systems revisited with similar videos too.

[@Loagz_Beatz]

The PS2 to this day is my favorite console. I still play it multiple times per week AND use it for my old dvd collection as well. It isn't too difficult to go to a retro game store randomly (or even 2nd and Charles or other stores that carry trade in game options) and find something cool for under $20 to pick up. The amount of games for this system (and the ps1 which you can play on it as well) is absurd and every year I find something new and fun to play. I have kids now and they love to watch some of the games that got me excited years ago. Nice video guys, I'm going to pick up that 4k converter even though it's expensive!

[@909Films]

Always love when Reggie drops in and talks games with you!!! I moved recently, I’m sharing a house, and don’t have the space to setup a proper game room. I’d love to get an update on PS1, PSP, and/or DS games/hidden gems. I kept my handhelds and newer PS1 with the LCD screen, so I’d love to get some suggestions to hold me over until I can move into a bigger place and bring the rest of my retro collection back from my friend’s game room.

[@VariableRecall]

I can vouch for the RetroTink2X. The scaler works great! I'd recommend chaining up the output of the scaler to an HDMI switcher so you can swap between your PS2 and other consoles in your entertainment center. Component cables make all the difference.

[@cactoidpinata]

Thanks for covering PS2 again! Like others, I'd be excited to see more updated buying guides. I agree that a lot of those games are hidden gems. But, I wish you guys would point out how frustrating the games get a few hours in. God Hand, Samurai Western, and Rogue Galaxy can be particularly frustrating, usually due to difficulty or awkward controls. That being said, these games are worth playing, but not always worth their price tags. I definitely recommend people try them first.

[@ItsASuckyName]

Sword of the Samurai/Kengo 2 Legacy of the Blade is a real hidden gem. I got that game in the ps2 era for something like 5 euro, didn't expected much of it...but man, that is such a great game. It is so much more than just a fighting game, really cool features.

something that confuses is when MJR does a video with Reggie every comment is abt how awesome Reggie is but then nobody goes over and watches his channel. Cmon people go give the man some love on his channel too

Awesome video guys! Please do more buying guides with Reggie!

Grande Metal Jesus locooooo. Gracias a ti compré el HD Boot y tengo un catálogo de 280 juegos en mi HDD de 1 TB, y ya quiero aumentar a 2 porque quiero más juegos!! Hay muchas joyas para jugar que uno las descubre al ir pasando los años y que no conocía. Un abrazo desde Chile (se hablar perfecto inglés, pero va en español para llamar la atención jeje)
