GTA:3. GTA3:Vice City is technically better, but the original GTA3 is what made me finally cave in and buy a PS2 ---

Kingdom Hearts - Great story, great acting. Awesome movies both in the game and as a reward. And Donald and Goffy got your back. Some really fun fights along the way. Only one I’ve liked so much I’ve done everything, and I mean everything there. I even like the song they sing at the end. ---

Also torn between GTA3 and Vice City… the original had better gameplay, but that soundtrack… 😉 ---

**Hot Shots Golf 3** It’s a great video game for people who usually don’t like video games. It’s surprisingly well designed, addictive, and well-suited to 1 or 2 players. I recommend it for anyone who has even a passing interest in golf. ---

**Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers** Yeah, I’m biased, but this is the only PS2 game I’ve played that made me consider buying the system. ---

I really didn’t enjoy SOCOM when I first got it, but I have been playing the hell out of it lately. It is the reason I bought the network adapter. Great game even with all the lame cheaters. ---

Some really fun fights along the way. Only one I’ve liked so much I’ve done everything, and I mean everything there. I even like the song they sing at the end. \*\* Square-Enix and Disney are already hard at work on the sequel. Apparently, the powers that be liked the first game enough that they’re developing the whole story into a franchise, with movies and all. I can’t wait. 😃 I also agree with/second recommendations for: Ico - One of the most engrossing games I’ve ever played. Frequency and Amplitude - Best music games ever. Final Fantasy X - The reason I bought a PS2. 😃 Rachet and Clank - Awesome platformer. GTA3 and Vice City - Goes without saying. I’m really looking forward to some of the games on the horizon. **Madden 2004** should rock - especially with all of the improvements they’ve made to the online component (including voice chat and buddy lists). FIFA 2004, NHL 2004, and Tiger Woods all look promising too (and have the same new online stuff). Sequels to **Rachet and Clank** and **Jak and Daxter** are in the works too. Oughtta be a good year. 😃 ---
