Two-Player Games

Recommended Posts

So my girl likes to play video games, as do I, and she went out and bought me a second PS2 controller so we can play together.

 

Problem is I only really play Sports and RPG's.

 

Suggest some Multiplayer PS2 games I should get for the two of us to play.

Rent out marvel vs capcom 2. Always impressive at first sight. For any serious 1vs1 play go for Capocm vs SNK2.

 

Also this just might be me but when I played with my girlfriend she tended to go for games with co-ops. I suggest the following:

 

Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven

Contra Shattered soldier (you'll be crying together on this one)

Any of the smackdowns

First person shooter co-ops, too many to mention.

 

And if you happen to be able to import any game get metal slug 3.

 

As people have said the cube is the party console.

Mortal Kombat, Tekken, SF--or not. I take it you're not dating some one like Sakura?

 

Puzzle games are a good bet.

 

And If it wasn't PS2, I'd say Mario Kart because everyone loves that game. =/

 

Good luck finding that.

 

SPF2T I mean..

 

Now, if you had a Cube, you could play the GBA game on the Game Boy Player...but unless you'd play other games it would be cheaper to track down the PS version.

 

There's FFX-2 I suppose. That could very well be playable two player somehow (Final Fantasy VI was in battles), but I wouldn't know.

 

Super Smash--damnit.

 

If she has an even slight interest in sports, NBA Jam works because you can play coop with her, or you can play competitive. If she isn't very good, play competitive and put on the CPU Handicap.

 

"And if you happen to be able to import any game get metal slug 3."

 

If not, there's Metal Slug X. :D One of my favorite games eva.

WHich would be better NBA Jam or NBA Street 2?

 

She loves sports, but shes not real good at the games(I whoop her ass all the time).

 

I will probably pick up Sould Caliber 2...

 

As for SD: HCTP...Well...shes not a wrestling fan at all, and i'm just waiting til next year's SD game for a more "fine tuned" version.

Twisted Metal Black is kind of old, but it is a good multiplayer game.

 

I believe their is a co-op mode in Return of the King too, but I have only played single player so I can't comment on how good it is.

How is single player?

 

Is it anything like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance?

 

I have play BG before and it's just like Diablo but it's 2 player co-op.

My better half and I played on the PS2 Gauntlet Dark Legacy when we first got the console.

 

I'm trying to get her to play Hot Shots 3, and we're currently playing (after a year or so away from it) Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance...

I've read that The Adventures Of Cookie and Cream is a good date game, but I'm a Cube owner myself.

I'm not really sure. I could enjoy playing the old 16-bit games with friends even if they weren't really gamers. Even my sister could get into it.

 

As for the current editions, I'm not sure.

 

She loves sports, but shes not real good at the games(I whoop her ass all the time).

 

Well, an arcade-style game like Jam (/Street?) shouldn't be any problem to pick up and play.

 

I will probably pick up Sould Caliber 2...

 

Yeah, then you both could button mash away. :D (likes Soul Calibur, but doesn't see the big friggin' deal people make over the games).

 

As for SD: HCTP...Well...shes not a wrestling fan at all, and i'm just waiting til next year's SD game for a more "fine tuned" version.

 

Smart idea. HCTP's follow up could use a hell of a lot of "fine tuning."

Well, I'm just pretend you mean fighting games in general...

 

Although, I must confess it's demoralizing to play, say, MK and get completely destroyed by a female stranger, then have a fatality performed on you.

 

In my defense, she was Asian. Take a look at the rankings charts for those fighting game tournaments--there's a large proportion of Asian dudes there.

Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance is a great co-op game, better than Gauntlet Dark Legacy IMO. My gf and I enjoy playing BG a lot more than GDL, which should have been better than it was... I like that the game is long, but dammit man, there is such a thing as TOO long. I admit to being a shill for BG, but until Universal pulled the plans to make D&D Heroes for the PS2, BG stays my #1 co-op game.

 

and only 8 days until my copy of BGDA2 arrives..
