Games that have NO right being as good as they are.

I've no idea if the Gamecube or PC version are any different, but I just got out my old PS2 and put this fucker in, there is no other HP experience like this absolute gem. The music, the atmosphere, the sounds, everything. Honestly blown away by how good the graphics are for ps2 in some areas of the game. This game is, dare I say it, Magic

Post more underrated ps2 era hidden gem games.

I played it on PC and its one of my favourite games. Got stuck as fuck on the Aragog level tho

The Cube version was fun, but it had cards that could only be obtained by linking it with the GBA version. That was a shame.

Honestly, pulling back the years of praise this game got, there really was no reason to expect it would be good, let alone a gold standard for licensed tie-in games.

Played this aswell, holds up. Web swinging is just so much fun, and you can level your Spidey up to add these combo moves, which serve no purpose other then to make him do acrobatic style shit in the air, and it is god tier.

The GC version was actually rather different from what I remember. It's been 15 years so maybe I'm talking out my ass, but I remember GC running at 60 vs ps2/ Xbox running at 30, Hogwarts was far more open in the PS2 version, whereas the GC had specific zones that had loading screens, and I think the levels were even different from each other. And yet both are still really good. PoA gets an honorable mention for also being a good movie game, every game after that was pure trash.

The original was a low-budget cashgrab of a game aimed at people who couldn't wait for GTA4, which somehow made enough money for a sequel with shit voice acting, no radio, an empty map, and no multiplayer. Most people bought it because it was $5 and all the other PC sandbox games ran like shit. It's still 2010's GOTY.

The original was great. Relatively new with its mechanics put together the way it was. Bad acting but a good story (something i miss from the sequels). Tight gameplay with not too much or too little to do. Didn't feel like a collectathon but with just blowing stuff up constantly.

Granted JC2 was better received, but I preferred 1. JC2 had better character gameplay but that was it.
>>
>>381648418
the PC version was an entirely different game from the PS2/Xbox/GC which was different from the PS1 version which was different from the GBC version which was different from the GBA version.

Same goes for the 1st and 3rd books as well, but no GBC version of Azkaban.

That's 14 different games and the craziest thing is they were all good.

Oh god I just put Sonic Heroes in my ps2, I don't know if I'm playing the greatest sonic game ever made or the worst, I can't tell yet

>>381648418
Played this on gamecube, one of the greatest licensed games of all time.
Being able to run around Hogwarts is too much fun. I'd kill for a game that spans all 7 years.

Greatest.
Tutorial is no indicator of the game.
>>
>>381652452
>PS2
Read some reviews, the PS2 version has a lot of issues the Gamecube version didn't have. It'll definitely affect your experience.
>>
>>381651214
kamidori totally has the right to be good

any game where you fuck a golem containing your mother's soul you shaped out of mud with your own hands is a quality experience by default
>>
Azkaban on 'Cube was great too but Goblet of Fire wasn't so good as it was mission based which killed the open-Hogwarts feel the first two created.

Fuck, feel like downloading them now. Been years.
Was The first movie's game on Gamecube worth playing?

>>381648568

Alright, been playing Sonic Heroes for a while now

Why on earth do people want SA3 and not another heroes? This is superior in every way shape and form, not trying to start some sonic war, but this controls so much better then both adventure games, maybe only heroes side is good and like most sonic games, the other characters are shit and play terrible?
>>
>>381648418
Ooh... I bought the PS2 trilogy and remember I had fun with it.
Too bad the last one bugged out and I couldn't make it to end.
I also remember Hermione constantly complaining she was poisoned by some enemies all the time and how frustrating stealth missions could be, though.

First game I ever personally owned rather than a shared family one and looking back it's fucking amazing

The powerups are cool, the train minigame is pretty good, the music is catchy, and the Pluto hunting minigames are fucking amazing

>>381651854
>tfw nobody will ever figure out how to rip this game's music
>>
>>381653201
The other characters feel like they're just treading the same ground over and over. They have slightly different gimmicks, but they're mostly samey. But then again, the gameplay is fun enough.

I don't think they can make another game as good as heroes though
>>
>>381653201
You're going to be playing the same levels over and over again with no significant differences.

2 had an edgier, more memorable story, new characters people actually liked introduced, and that chao garden thing

i've also got retarded memories of playing SA2 versus mode with friends and screaming the battle quotes at each other, while heroes is just barely outside of my nostalgia zone

>>381653523
The only uploads people have of the music are recorded from VBA/the actual GBA featuring sound effects, the game doesn't use the sappy engine that most GBA games do and nobody who ever did individual game rips for ones that don't have sappy never made any sort of tutorial for people who don't know how

eat shit

Does anybody remember this one? Not ps2, ps1, this as a child, was the most horrifying game to ever exist, because it was that type of not resident evil in your face scary, but just cartoonish enough for you to play, but also I'm going to die alone in my room kind of vibes

I remember that game being brutally hard for some reason. I may have just sucked back then, but I remember being really stressed out while playing it. It wasn't terrible, but not amazing, especially after following up SA2.

The Sorcerer's Stone on GC was made AFTER the Chamber of Secrets and it made quite a few quality updates, namely being able to free roam Hogwarts with no loading zones.

One notable thing I've noticed is that the atmosphere is almost 'too' engrossing; almost all outdoor areas have no music at all, making you feel like you're really in the middle of a forest.

The biggest downside I'd say is that the ending (after beating the final boss) is a huge copout and laughably bad but it honestly doesn't detract from the experience. (Weirdly enough, I think the credits play any music either, but I could be misremembering.)

Would recommend/10

I remember owning the PS1 versions of SS and CoS, then buying the trilogy on PC, and I swear the PC version for SS and CoS were the same as the PS1 version with some stuff cut and added here and there and PoA is definitely the same as the PS2 and GC versions, while the GC versions of all 3 are totally different. I really want all the madness to be documented as its an amazing clusterfuck of different versions spread out through so many different platforms, and the best part is that indeed each version has its charm and quality.
