Besides from the odd few, I mainly collect to build up sets of games.
yeah thats what i was doing, mainly started trying to collect a full set of the retro packs first, which i think ive done
wouldnt mind the full burn out set next, and obviously all the resi evils
From the ones I've played...
Stuntman - It's alright, but I found it to be a bit too difficult and frustrating. There's a lot of learning when to do certain things..Some people think it's the best game ever though...
Enter The Matrix - Definitely worth a penny, but it's a bit of a disappointment...
Alone In The Dark 4 - Only played the PS1 version, but it was alright...apart from a bug involving portraits that stopped me completing it (which I believe was fixed for the PS2 version)...
Shadow Of The Colossus is one of my favourite games ever...it's basically just a collection of Boss Fights joined together by traipsing across empty landscapes, but it's done so well and the landscapes are so nice to ride around that it all works! (Well, for most people..)
You can see my collection here..
nice collection.
looks cool when its photographed like that so you can see all the nice covers :)
saw a few of mine in there (no midway collection 3 tho??)
and a fair few that look interesting to have :D
Oh yeah, here's a few recommendations too!
Oh, and the Silent Hill games of course...
Will get Midway 3 eventually, but it doesn't look as impressive as the other collections...
edit - cheers just ordered that Urban Chaos: Riot Response for a penny :)

Unfortunately my PS2 suffered from the 'disk not recognised' bug, I did take it apart once to fix it, which worked while the machine was dismantled, but I guess the pressure from the case being back on threw the drive out of alignment again. I've not had the motivation to go through it again, although I would like to at one point, there were some great PS2 games.
I'm gonna buy the Streetfighter II Anniversay Edition next time I make it to ye game shoppe. Funny I have the Art of Fighting one, and I'm absolutley convinced I bought the orochi saga, but I must've imagined it? Unless somebody has been walking out of here with my PS2 games.
....and so many people come and go from this bloody house it may have really been happening :???:
Ooh! Lucky you! This is getting quite hard to get hold of now, and quite pricey, as is the first one from what I hear?
Would've liked to have bought it, but the last time I saw it in a shop it was $39.99 used, that's probably the same price it retailed at originally (and I refuse to pay the original bloody retail price for a used game) :(
I have the first game and I'm holding onto it, still need to finish my game on ridiculously hard off so I can play through it with Drizt :D
I've got the first one of those.. it was quite cheap IIRC..
As for Tomb Raider Anniversary, I've got the 3 disc one too.. paid ?20 in Game for it.
If you really like Sonic, it might be worth getting Sonic Mega Collection Plus also. It too has unlockable games.
cheapest on amazon are ?2.25 and ?8.34

i HATE with a passion parappa the rapper and its ilk
You gotta believe! :lol:
Shadow of the Colossus really IS a must. It's weird getting your head around the fact that the game world is empty (more or less) but it's an amazing game.
Grand theft auto: san andreas.
Oh, and for me, Samurai warriors 2 + Samurai Warriors 2 xl. Don't get 'em if you don't like button-mashing though. You have been warned.
Tekken tag Tournament.
God of war 1+2
Gran Turismos
Probably some more but they're my personal must-haves.
yeah i needed all those old retro packs.........specially at the prices :P
yeah im seriously thinking about colosous but it DOES divide people and im really not sure ill like it, specially as it seems to never be under about ?20 on amazon
again not that sure ill like the gta games on it tbh, ive tried the first one on ps1 and got bored tbh, same with bully, but i keep trying with it lol i really want to like it (bit like elite on the speccy, bbc etc)
tekken / gran turimos i can both like and dislike, not really my fave types of games, i have a couple for the ps1
driving wise i prefer the likes of burnout as its different
Oh, did you manage to complete Gladiator (or even try to) on the taito legends pack?
I got to the final guy loads of times but he's spanked me every time.
The 'extras' on the compilation dvds are great too. It's humbling to hear how good some people were at defender.
The tekken version I mentioned is the championship one - has slightly different game modes to the normal version which I think make it a lot more playable. Especially multiplayer.
Probably not worth 20 quid for colossus but keep an eye out and grab it cheap if you can. Am sure there are plenty youtube walkthroughs out there so you can get to see the game.
never thought of youtube tbh :P
just been playing rtype final...now gonna stick on the updated defender, never played it tbh
just ordered sonic gems for 51p :)
and Sonic Mega Collection Plus for about ?1.70
wonder why they dint crop up before when i searched for megadrive
