    Thank you for mentioning Seek and Destroy! It is such an underrated game and never makes it on a list. My friend and I would play it for hours after school and had a ton of fun with it. He passed away recently in a motorcycle accident and hearing about this game again brings back so many fond memories

      I think too the hardware spec was a good balance for most developers, what I mean by this is they were easy enough to make games for that most smaller startups could compete with the bigger guys, even just down to graphics, these days the amount of time/money spent just to make something look current is ridiculous, so the barrier to entry is so much higher.
      the fact that the PS2 library had so many games by so many companies, really shows this.. so many ideas were made into reality back then too, rather than being shut down for not being profitable enough due to again, that barrier to entry

    • @retrosoul8770
      @retrosoul8770 Před 5 lety +13

      Exactly, ^ that's one the biggest reasons why the 6th gen will likely never be topped again, and was the greatest era in gaming and I'm willing to write that down as fact. Never again will we have 4 consoles, each with a plethora of unique, creative exclusives plus tons of great multi-platform titles without filthy monetization, it was a wonderful time to play games, you couldn't own just one system.

      @paxhumana2015 Před 5 lety +1

      @@JollyGiant1213 , the GameCube was okay, but the Wii, though considered by some as a Seventh Generation console, actually has more in common with the other Sixth Generation consoles, so I consider it a Sixth Generation console as well, despite it coming out around 2005 or 2006. Furthermore, the Wii was honestly no slouch either, and it, and the PS2, had a healthy rivalry for a few years before the end of the Sixth Generation of Video Games. Strangely enough, people are STILL making official games (albeit not that many of them, or many good games for that matter) for the Wii to this day.

    The 6th generation consoles, PS2, XBOX, Gamecube, and Dreamcast are easily the best in video game history. Tremendously high quality, a GIGANTIC library of games, and with the PS2 backwards compatibility with all PS1 games. Imagine that Sony! The PS2 "slim" model seems to somehow defy the laws of physics with how much power comes from such a tiny console, and without hardly making a sound. Just make sure you unplug the power cord each time when you are done playing, because it can overheat if you always leave it plugged in.

    First of all:
    Over 1800 games....................are you sure about that? To my knowledge, the library goes WAY over 1800 games. Maybe over 1800 US releases? Even that seems like a rather low number for a library that in total goes to the multiple 1000s. It has the biggest gaming library to date in terms of consoles after all.
    Second of all................maybe include these on the next hidden gems video (without including Japan exclusive games):
    - Black and Bruised
    - Bomberman Kart
    - Bujingai
    - Demolition Girl (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series" in Japan. Its Volume 50)
    - Demon Chaos
    - Dragon Sisters (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series". Its Volume 87)
    - Everblue
    - Everblue 2
    - Flipnic
    - Growlanser (being "Generations" or "Heritage of War")
    - Hot Wheels: Beat That
    - Kaido Racer
    - Kaido Racer 2
    - Kengo
    - Legaia 2
    - Mercury Meltdown
    - Puzzle Quest (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series".........on the PSP at least)
    - Red Ninja
    - Robot Warlords
    - Soul Nomad
    - Steambot Chronicles
    - Steel Dragon EX (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series". Its Volume 37)
    - Stella Deus
    - Stuntman Ignition (Its also on the PS3)
    - Taxi Rider (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series". Its Volume 48)
    - Tokyo Xtreme Racer
    - Trapt
    - Zombie Virus (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series". Its Volume 95)
    - Zombie Zone (originally part of the "Simple 2000 Series". Its Volume 61)

    • @culturedbrother
      @culturedbrother Před 5 lety +4

      That is correct. However, that list is far from being complete.
      Example, try to find "Dragon Sisters" on that list. You wont find it. Try to look up for the "Simple 2000 Series" on that list and you will only find 21 games from that series even tho there are 170 games from that series (at least 71 of those were released outside of Japan including the start of the "Onechanbara" series and even "Earth Defence Force").
      The "Simple 2000 Series" is just an example, there are way more missing from that list.
      Another example that isnt part of the "Simple 2000 Series": "Psyvariar Complete". That game isnt on that list either.
      Look at the list of "GameFaqs". The list shows 100 games per page (62 pages total). Sure, inlcuded in that list are games that were canceled but if we count those out (lets make 1000 games canceled) and include that page 62 doesnt have 100 games listed, we are looking at around 5000 games or so worldwide.
      Thats why i find it a bit hard to believe that only over 1800 games were released in the US. But dont know, maybe there were just slightly over 1800 games released in the US.
      But still, the games that i pointed out in my original comment, maybe there is something in there that you might consider to be a "hidden gem", personally i consider every single one to be a hidden gem.

Honestly you can beat the game in 4-6 hours casually if you have good map memory which was one of the shittier parts about it is the back tracking. But what was cool about some of the maps is what you come back to is trashed up as it progresses. Last boss can suck it tho
