Do you know how much cheaper? i have the origonal and have completed the game with all golds but SSX tricky looks another must have game especially with the matrix style feature

I think if your into football games then you should definatly get Pro Evolution Soccer (ISS) when its out. There is no set date i think so you may be waiting a month or two. If you want an adventure game i would go for onimusha as i have just ordered this, its suppose to have good replay value so it will be worth it then, however having not played it yet i dont know. Hope so though!!
Shadows of memories:
Not a best buy for PS2, though it has some very interesting ideas. Messing with time though has to be taken as only a game. If you think to hard about it, things get too complicated and you realise the game couldn`t work.
Zone of the Enders:
Graphically excellent, short lived, but fun to play. Emotional but short ending. Good overall, but let down by hopeless voice overs.
Tekken Tag:
My favourite ever beat `em up. If you like a more complex move system than something like DOA2, then this is the one. Fluidity of motion is key.
Extermination:
Not played it, though I hear it is short lived, and not as much fun as other games. Still good, but another near miss really.
Red Faction:
For FPS this is the best, though it has a weaker multiplayer than TimeSplitters. The one player game is fantastic, and the geo-mod gives it the edge.

Shadow of memories is fantastic although I wouldn't say it's for everyone, zone of the enders has amazing graphics but you press 2 buttons and fight faster then tekken, not bad. tekken tag mmm great if you don't have tekken 3 but it's worth hanging on till tekken 4. SSX wait for ssx tricky which is on dvd, mils better and get this CHEAPER.
