for some reason, i could never adapt to the newer versions of the street fighter series of games. all those super combos and mega jumps... i get dazed and confuzed crazy taxi is an awesome game... can u play multiplayer (non-internet)?

Yea, it's brutal. they could have at least put Jelena Dokic on the cover. Too bad Anna isn't in the game, she should have been on the cover for sure. The Williams' do make some awesome doubles partners in the game though.

i'm trying to play nba2k2 now... its pretty damn hard. i can hit shots in the first half, but i miss everything in the last two quarters. am i doing something wrong? the computer does all my substitutions... so i don't think my players are getting THAT fatigued....

I think it's just the game. I've never played 2K2, but I have 2K1, and that game is SOOOO hard. It it easily the most difficult basketball game I have ever played. I found you really had t focus on using plays, screens, pick-and-rolls, etc to get good shots. Especially after the computer tightens up its defense.

heh... anyone remember the old lakers vs celtics game by EA? inbounds pass... steal.... score... (repeat). those were the days...

Add Test Drive LeMans and Tokyo Extreme Racer 2 if you want to play racing games.

F355. I heard that Schumi plays it in the off-season to keep his F1 skills honed. It is a great sim like game with excellent car physics.

I do dig Tennis 2K2, but wished that Anna, Pete and Andre were in it. I'm really having a lot of fun with House of the Dead 2 lately. My mom is hooked on it too.

by far the best game is...........(and i have 35 games)............


VIRTUA TENNIS 2 AKA Tennis 2k2

 

[spanky]

suggestions?

 

[crypticlogin]

I think Soul Calibur should be in everyone's collection, but that's just me. Yeah, it's old but the game, extras, and features are all very well done.

House of the Dead 2
but you need the guns.

Looks like and plays like the arcade version.

 

[poopaskoopa]

Typing of the Dead is fun too. Looney Tunes Space Race is pretty fun also. Just naming stuff that's not been mentioned here. Of course, I'll take NFL2K1(not 2) over all those .

 

[Aquaman]

Soul Calibre
Test Drive Le Mans
Shenmue 1 & 2

Cheers,
