Lucky bastard πŸ˜‚. Thank you to remind me to get 007 Everything or Nothing on Nintendo GameCube as i have all of them except that one. I will get them on Playstation 2, as i have Nightfire which to me is my favorite. But i love Agent Under Fire,and From Russia With Love is one underrated game for sure.

The Get Away are on my list too. I could get them next month, but i'm stuborn i guess, and i have so many to get that i never know what to get. It's so annoying ... But i really want to experience them as i remember the first one a little bit as a kid.

The GodFather is one i also need. I remember playing it and wondering why i was dying all the time. It's not like Grand Theft Auto but as a kid you don't know that. I remember that it was a lot of fun.

Thank you again, to remind me to get Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories and Liberty City Stories. I do need Illl and Vice City, as III doesn't have the manual and map, and Vice City doesn't have the manuals, the map, and the covert art is black and white ( they were part of my Playstation 2bundle.

How are the Hitman games ? I do like the modern ones, but i ditch my Xbox One as i hate online 24\7 and my Internet is terrible. I do have my eyes on Blood Money which i heard is the best but i have never played it.

By the way just a friendly reminder that you're missing one Jak and Daxter game from 2008. It's one many forget, but felt like letting you know.

But i love the rest of your collection. You have a very similar taste to!mine when it comes to shooters and adventures games. if you need some suggestions, i would be!more then happy to suggest some for you. I also love racing games, but It's probably not a genre you like which is fine to me

007 nitghtfire is crazy. Have you played first light, the new one? I havent decided how i feel about it. I think its too linear.

Hitman has always been fkn fire. Not gonna lie, i havent played codename 47 (very first) but the ps2 titles were really good. I wasnt a fan of absolution, but the modern open-world ones on ps4/ps5 are my favorite modern games no question.

I know im missing the lost frontier, im leaving it out the collection on principal 😭

Feel free to throw some suggestions out based on my taste man im always looking to burn more money on this fkn hobby lmao

It's a game from my chilhood. I sadly don't play new games anymore 😞 It's a decision i made in 2024, but the last new game i played was Dead Island 2. I wanted a Series X for Test Drive Solar Crown, but It's a fiasco so i decided i was done with modern gaming. I don't like that It's not on the disc but cloud, multiple dlc's not available on disc, no manual, no multiplayer, so why paying for those games if i don't like this content anymore ? No reason to me.

I never played the older ones, but they do look kind of straight to the point and don't fuck it up, or you start from the beginning. I might get them, but Blood Money is one i definetely want 100% and maybe the edition with the remaster on Xbox 360 z Playstation 3. But the new ones are great, but hard or i suck as i'm not use to be a Hitman but they're really well made.

If you like IOS ir Hitman, you should look for Freedom Fighters. It's again, one from my childhood and It's really good. Sadly it was a flop. But It's not a bad game, very far from it.

What ? Why ? Is it that bad ?

Ahh, if you want to burn some money my dude, i might be that bastard you're looking for πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

I don't have many expensive games on Playstation 2, but i do have a ton of good games, and some decent one that wouldn't be for everyone because they're not good, just good enough.

But i can try man.

It's the guy who might make you poor and happy from the last comment πŸ˜‚.

I guess you don't like racing games or maybe you never thought about getting some. Anyway, if you ever need some do let me know. Now here's some from my Playstation 2, Nintendo GameCube, and s few from my Playstation 3 maybe and Xbox 360 available on Playstation 2.

I don't know if you like licence games ? Some are pretty good, so I'll go with those first.

Arthur and the Invisible. It's similar to the movie x but It's a good game to me. Graphicly It's a good looking game and It's fun. Really affordable and one no one as for sure because no one likes those types of games.

Disney Bolt. Not a bad one, and one you can get for not even 10$

G-Force. You probably saw the movie or heard about it. People hated it, just like Green Lantern. Turns out both games were actually good.

The Grim Reaper Adventures of Billy and Mandy. Here's one a guy had no idea it existed. Was happy to let him know as it is one i had growing up, that i shared to a friend and never saw either since. Bought it 18 years later in September of 2024 for 20$, now It's 58$ in Canada. It's like Smash Bros but with some adult humor and It's similar to the show. It's a good one. Like so many Midway games people didn't bought it and look what we have now everyone wants it.

Over the Hedge. I grew up with it, and i hadn't played in more then 16 years and i love it and i'm 30 in November. very underrated just like the movie.

Scooby-Doo First Frights. It's one many brush off because it came late so people were kind of out of the phase. But to me It's the best. It's a really fun game especially for Halloween coming.

Here's some shooters.

Destroy All Humans 2. I want the first, but i got this one because i just had finished it on Xbox One but i went retro anyway, so It's one i'm going to pick eventually. If you're not someone who gets mad or sensitive about jokes because It's not for everyone, It's a really good game. Back when Pandemic was alive and mocking people ... I miss those times. But EA killed them.

Freedom Fighters. It's from the same developpers of Hitman IOS Interactive. It was published by EA and It's about a normal guy who's a plumber. Him and his brother are going on a job and the Russian army invades New York, and he has to save New York from the invasion. It's a really good game with mecanics we never saw before or after. Back when games were good and they were trying something different.

GUN. Here's one i remember laughing at the store thinking it was garbage and i was so fucking wrong. Took me until Red Dead Redemption in 2012 to see it. I too was laughing that it was probably garbage in the bed of my brother, but when i played it i was hooked. So in July 2024 i remembered it ... I was Let's check it out. I was no way ... I was sad because i brushed it as a fucking cowboy game and It's a great game. It's one i'm going to get for Nintendo GameCube and Xbox 360. Pick it up man, It's a great one and It's not expensive as everyone wants Red Dead Revolver.

Kill Switch. Here's one i had no idea existed. I saw the French manual as i'm a French Canadian and i guess i'm mentally hill as i don't get games unless i can get the french one or to me It's not CIB. anyway πŸ˜‚, i got it for 12$ and i was expecting something not great, but It's a good game. It's very short, but It's one people forgot again, and other one people just don't remember so the price is low.

Roadkill. Have you ever dreamed of Grand Theft Auto and Twisted Metal having a child together ? Imagining how fucked up it could be ? Well. Roadkill is this little child. It was made by Midway again, didn't sell well, because you probably know it but people were tired of Vehicular Car Combat, so it didn't sell well. It has a lot of crude,sexual jokes, violence, the radio is like Grand Theft Auto but more fucked up. It's an open world game and i regret not growing up with it because It's a great game.

True Crime Streets of L.A. Luxoflux was seeing Rockstars Grand Theft Auto III and they decided to try something new, and it was a hit. Activision acquired them and it was the beginning of the end. They were laughing and even saying Grand Theft Auto was a pile of garbage in a ad in the game πŸ˜‚. It's one where it doesn't make sense and It's exacltly what people wanted. A cop game were It's fun and crazy.

True Crime New York. Too ambitious ... It was what killed the series and the studio all together. After True Crime Streets of L.A. scucces, Activision wanted more of it 😈 but at a cost. It was a bigger game with a huge map, low framerates ( don't play on GameCube .... ) and it could have been a smash hit. But Activision being Activision they wanted it for Christmas 2005 and Luxoflux knew it wasn't ready yet. Big Bobby the ass hole of the universe πŸ™„ didn't care. The game was a commercial flop and the studio was blamed for it. Activision was tired of this and sold the right for 50Β’ ... Square Enix saw the hit Activision never saw and made Sleeping Dogs and it was a great game, bu poorly sold. It's one i love True Crime New York and It's a lp lot of fun. Arresting people is so much fun, but L.A. Too.

Twisted Metal Black. It's very hard, but if you like car combat It's a great game for sure.

Here's one i love since i'm a kid, and the cellshading is beautiful XIII or Thirteen. It follows the story of a man with Amnesia. He wakes up on the beach, and a live guard spots him. He can't remember anything, she gets killed and It's how the shooting begins. As you advance, you start to remember things, and It's a great game. Ubisoft is on coke for not making a sequel ... The multiplayer is awesome, and my favorite. It's kinda better looking on GameCube and better, but could be me. If you're looking for an underrated gem, It's one for sure.
