in all honesty, the ps2 / x360 was the best time to be alive and the only true console generation, none of that marketing crap about realistic graphics bla bla bla, developers just deployed absolute bangers to enjoy with your siblings and friends
I loved Black! I got a copy of it from a pawn shop, but the disc was so scratched up that I could hardly finish a map without a handful of disc polishes and resets. I spent the entire lifetime of my PS2 looking for another copy, but no game shop in my stupid country had even heard of it, and importing at the time wasn't a financially viable option (almost the cost of a black market kidney).
Too fucking right mate, some of these old games selling for more than current day AAA releases is nuts. But if you have a decent enough PC, there are... other ways of enjoying this gem.
I have the PC 💪🏼! I'll have to look into those "other ways" (wink wink)... There are plenty of great older games that aren't available anymore through "normal means".@@Zanyverse
Man, you guys missed on Black big time. It got raving reviews and it was considered THE FPS game for the PS2. On the Xbox it ran better but it also suffered stiff competition from Halo. I remember that, by the end of PS2's life cycle, Black and Time Splitters Future Perfect were the best shooters on the PS2.
Yeah, considering I was about 5 when the game came out, can you really blame me? But I'm very happy I got to play it after all these years! Still sad we never got a real sequel, but alas, EA will do what EA does. 😑
Thanks for shout-out my man. Great video!
THE INSPIRATION HIMSELF!

Real and true to be honest. When I bought a PS2 I went down a rabbithole and now have like 35-40 games already 💀
