I'm looking for a PS2 game to choose for my GAD. I want something to stand out in my collection.
It needs:
Originality
Re-playability
It needs to be attractive
It needs to be fun.
I'm basically looking for something witht he kind of quality Nintendo games have, like Monkey Ball. Any games on PS2 with that sort of quality? If so, please suggest some.
I'm also considering Soul Calibur 2 and Virtua Tennis 2. Are these good, and do either fall into the categories listed?
I was interested in the Gregory Horror Show. Although it's not due till 2004... It looked interesting, I'm pretty bored with my current collection of PS2 titles, and Ape Escape 2 keeps getting postponed.

Notice the bit saying that Halo is coming out on PS2 this year? :-)

Trust me, it's not.
A PS2 mag right back when the Cube was first released wrote a story saying that monkey Ball was coming to PS2, it was lies then and it's also lies now.

Not anymore, it was originally, but I'm sure they were putting it in the path of the PS2. Either that, or they've canned the idea.
