Well i went to gamestop last weekend and picked up a few games for my PS2. Here are my thoughts on what I picked up:

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Killer game. I also own GTA3, but for some reason this game is just so much more fun. The killer 80's soundtrack doesn't hurt a bit either. There's nothing like runing a drive-by while listening to "I Wear My sunglasses at Night". There was one mission in the beginning where I had to go all Scarface on this one guy with a chainsaw. Good stuff. For what a lot of people seem to think is a rehash of GTA3, I find that the soundtrack and the gameplay are a worthy investment. I love it personally.

Legaia 2: Duel Saga

This would probably be on of the most underrated RPG's I've ever run across. Legend of Legaia for the PS was an OK game, but lacked a lot of graphic detail. Legaia 2 makes up for it. It's unique combat system make for an interesting play experience. You fight by entering where your strike hits on your opponent. If you enter the right combination you learn Arts, which are super powered combos. As you level up you gain more Art Blocks, so you can enter more strikes per turn. It really is worth the experience. While the storyline is still kinda so-so, the gameplay itself is pretty fun

Enter the Matrix

Everybody and their brother has mixed opinions of this game. And on some counts I have to agree with a few of them. There is a certain "unfinished" quality to it. There have been several instances where the game will just go spastic for no apparent reason. The music in certain areas gets quirky and goes into an infinite repeat of the game 6 notes. Those are my only down notes for this game however. The action is top notch, and the Focus moves are awesome. The movie scenes between some scenarios are great, featuring the actual actors. I personally enjoy the hell out of the game. But I swear, if agent smith throws me off of one more skyscraper I'm gonna throw the game.

All in all, I think they were worthy purchases, though the game I'm really waiting for comes out at the end of next month.
