I would have to agree with TheOneBillyGun about Madden. Madden is the best game you can buy for your PS2, that is if you are a football fan, and I am, and this title is the reason I bought the PS2. I have played so much madden that I needed a change of pace. So up until last Tuesday, Madden 2001 was the only game I owned. Since Tuesday, I have been on quite a shopping spree. I have purchased; Tekken Tag, SSX, Midnight Club, Timesplitters, NBA Live 2001, Rayman 2 and Oni. Tekken, good game, but gets old really fast, thank God for that bowling mini-game. SSX, I think is the biggest disappointment, it recieved great ratings, but I would prefer Tony Hawk Pro Skater over this overated title. I know they are both different titles, but yet they are very similar. Midnight Club, this game is very fun for the first 15 minutes, but after a half-hour of playing the game, You\'ll kick your own ass for buying it, I took it back. Timesplitters, I should have known better. If I wanted to play an FPS, a genre I\'m normally not interested in, I would have bought Quake 3 for my PC. NBA Live 2001, I wanted to like this game, but after playing Madden 2001 non-stop since launch, NBA Live 2001\'s bad framerate, and lack of detail made me want to beat up my neighbor, just kidding. Rayman 2, this game has alot of potential. I just started playing it and I like it very much, so far. Oni, I\'ve played the PC version, its almost Identical to the PS2 version. I got the PS2 version, because I didn\'t want to buy another controller for my PC, and I\'m not going to use the mouse and keyboard. Oni, is the best game I have, next to Madden, Rayman 2 is up there somewhere. I could go on and on about how great this game is, but that would be a waste of time. I\'m not trying to convince anyone to pick this title up, I just bet that the reason most people don\'t like this game is because of the controls. Maybe I\'m special, I\'ve mastered them. I admit it was frustrating as hell at first when the controls were new to me. I stuck it out and practiced hard, I did the training sequence at the beginning probably twelve times. If you own the game, and have gave up on it because of the difficult controls. I suggest that you try doing the training mode several times until you get the hang of it, It makes a world of difference.
