edit: so before i was ninja edited, this was supposed to be a thread about what ps2 games i'd get.
ps2 games only (i'll play eboots on my psp for ps1 games). i own a great pc and a 360, so i don't want games that have appeared on anything microsoft.
i like:
-certain japanese rpgs and most american rpgs
-action/adventure games with interesting gameplay
-uniqueness of all kinds
-awesome stories
-excellent graphics
-likeable characters
i'm already getting chrono cross, ff10 and 12, and probably shadow of the colossus. i might get some of the GTA series. what else should i get?
i should point out that i'm getting these because i'm starting to collect different systems and the defining games for each console. i've got an original xbox, a psp, a 360, an n64, and now a ps2. i might get a gamecube at some point, but you get the picture. i would prefer games that are experiences, not just something to pass the time (aka, madden games).
