Considering that of the games I have played, I haven't liked any of them, I am loathed to vote anything, so I'll vote for a game I haven't played - FFX.

Sorry, has to be that way.

OK, so you have played PS2 games. So we want to know your vote for best of the year. Don't shirk the issue.

Are you blind, or just pig ignorant?

I'm not going to bother popping threads that state how much I have actually played PS2 games, nor will I bother re-iterating it for you.

Your brand of selective memory is just mind-numbingly irritating, and I consider you to be one of the most pathetic users on this board, in the same category as Cherry (Top Score).

Go away.

Oh my, can't except that people actually find those games complete crap? Grow up then, not everyone's going to love bland and un-involving FPS, me being one of them.

Just for the record, Agent Under Fire has some great graphics, and some amazing driving sections, only let down by dull, and lifeless shooting levels which link them together. Plus I completed it the same day I purchased it, crap.

Red Faction is uninspiring, and unadventurous. It plays like one big giant technology test demo for the overrated Geo-Mod engine. Repetitive levels, crap graphics and a lack of any real pace. It's boring and repetitive and comes with one of the crappest multiplayer modes ever.

Red Faction 2 is all right though, glad to see the developers went back and actually developed a game.

I would mention GTA3/VC and the entire Tony Hawks series.

And cipro is bang on with Red Faction. It was complete rubbish. It does have some strange cult following though.

cipro. Pathetic excuse for a forum member.

Onto the topic in hand, "Rez" by SEGA is the ultimate in repetition and crapness.

That's good news FM! Poor old Nintendo... its just one blow after another.

To answer Ros, you could be right about Portal Runner, I think it is more recent, and could be 2002. To be honest though, I try not to keep track of them.

Portal Runner, was that 2002? I played a demo of that. Sucked big time. I'm never going to buy a 3DO game ever!
