Getting a new game

So... I' m getting a new game, anyone I want and I am having trouble deciding.
Any suggestions?
So far I am trying to decide between:
MGS3, GTA SA, Phantom Brave, Star Ocean 3, and DBZ Budokai 3 (new one looks real good).
Game is only for the PS2

(I was thinking of getting World of Warcraft but I don' t do monthly fees - even though I played on the open beta and it was awesome)

My suggestion is to get either GTA:SA or Star Ocean 3.

GTA:SA - if you like this kind of game, then you' ll want this one due to its unrivaled size.

Star Ocean 3 - It' s an awesome RPG...what more do you want?

Videogaming is the contemporary interactive pasttime.

I' m going to agree with DaRoosh here; those two are a couple of my favorites of the year.

If you' re aching for a great RPG, go for SO. If you' re kinda RPG' ed out, go for GTA: SA. SA is my personal GoY.

If you' re a big fan of the MGS series, then I' d recommend that one too. I hear it' s fantastic for the fans.

Yea I dunno
I don' t know if I need another RPG right away so I was hesitant towards Star Ocean
I don' t know if I would like GTA on console, I liked it on PC but I don' t know if the controls owuld be bad or somethiung
Anyone hear anything of the new DBZ game
Video clips I' ve seen look cool

So GTA: SA which is like super long or DBZ Budokai 3 which can be a quick pick up and have fun game
That seems to be my choice
I haven' t played GTA for a console. How are the controls?
I' m leaning towards both haha

Raven: To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how you can even play GTA on PC. Driving is such a HUGE part of the game, and I' d MUCH rather have a good ol' gamepad. Sorry, but the controls are darn close to perfect in the console versions. SA got a 9.6, remember...and it certainly wasn' t the PC version.

And yeah, it' s LOOOONG. Well, if you want to do absolutely everything.

I don' t know why but for some reason I thought that driving controls would be weird
But I don' t know why haha I guess it was because I play GTA 3 only on PC

I ended up picking GTA: SA though so I' m looking forward to it
Still want Budokai 3 (among others and more mentioned)

No the PC version has the best controls. You use mouse and keyboard for general running around and shooting, and use a gamepad (I recommend either Sega' s Saturn style PC controllers or using an adapter for a Dual Shock) for driving around. Near perfect!

Er...no. That' s called " awkward." Jumping between a gamepad and keyboard/mouse back and forth in the middle of missions? I tried it. SUCKAGE.

Might also want to look into buying Knights of the Old Republic 2. I believe it gets released Dec. 6th. It comes on the PC as well. It should be a pretty decent RPG.

In response to the following complaint I have decided to change my signature:

Of the games you listed, I' d go Metal Gear, or Star Ocean. I remember playing the original metal gear and being more imersed in the game that I had in any other before it. The only real lacking element from the 2nd was the story, if it wasn' t for that the game would have been very good. This new one though, the story is supposed to be great, and the game as good as ever. I can' t imagine it' ll dissapoint. If it' s RPG fare, than Star Ocean is always a safe bet. Personally I' d rather get LOTR: the third age. I know reviews haven' t been super, but I really don' t like real time battle like star ocean has, and I' m just dieing to play a decent RPG in Middle earth.

If you want a game that is worth every penny you will spend on it, go with San Andreas. Even after playing the hell out of the game, there is always more to do.

I' m personally aching for a good RPG as I haven' t played one since FFX(and I didn' t care much for it). I thought I' d hold off until FFXII, but star ocean 3 seems to have gotten nothing but praise.

If you are one of those people who can play MGS all day, then snake eater would definately not dissapoint. I had halo2 and San andreas collecting dust when I rented snake eater b/c I just could not stop playing it. It' s honestly that good
