Latest PS2 games

[pbrettle]

I think that I have been away from playing PS2 games for about 6-8 months so I am sure that I have missed a whole lot. However, in an attempt to catch up I rented a couple from Blockies to see which was worth buying - tried Splinter Cell and Getaway...

However, totally pi55ed of with both! Hard, complex and not very enthralling. Now I do know that they are a couple of the best ones on the market at the moment, and I am sure it is just me - but what happened to the PS2 games that you can just pickup and play.... now its 16 different controls for loads of different things with gameplay so hard that you just cant be bothered to try again....

Any suggestions for something simple, violent (though doesnt need to be ultra or anything), easy to learn and pickup and really engrossing?

Or am I just being a wuss?

Cheers,

Paul

i second GTA Vice City.

or get a gameboy or a Megadrive for a tenner and go back to the days when gameplay was more important than putting 'real faces on polygons' or something.

Quake II on PS1 stole 1999 from me.

Ratchet and Clank is good fun but not that taxing - quite long though and lots of hidden stuff.
