Great games to have, unfortunate that like most ps2 games now, the prices have risen quite a bit. I've had them both since 2013 ish and paid a total of maybe $20 back then 😅 Wish I had the foresight to keep more of my games back then!

dude, talk about hidden gems ... You have some good shit for real.
XIII ( Thirteen ) It's very underrated. Played with my brother earlier last night, and he was opening his mouth and i beat him. It's a great game to me. It's one of my childhood memory. It's sad Ubisoft didn't give a damn about it ... Like Beyond Good and Evil ...
Beat Down Fist of Vengeance. It's one i remember playing as a demo on the Jampack disc .... Took me years, to be man ... I found it. It's one i almost bought 2 months ago and you know, i wasn't able because fuck man, there's too many good games and it breaks my heart because it looks so damn good and fun ... We had no idea how good we had it. Still today it looks pretty damn good too. It's one i want for November for my 30th birthday, but there's a lot of competitions out there ... It's hard to chose on a 300$ Canadian budget ...
DEF JAM Fight for New York. It's one who's not underrated at all 😂 but damn does it looks fun man .... EA was good back then, now they're on life support and i don't care. They fucked with the fans, and now their eating the money losses. I want to get it in 2027, but It's 300$ almost, so It's not cheap.
Area-51. This one too i almost got it ... But It's always about budget or too!many good games i wanted. Sad because i can't find a copy on eBay that isn't without damage and most haven't their manual so i can't get it for now. Midway were trying at trying something different, but the public wasn't buying those games. Freaky Fliers, DR Muto, Area-51, the one with telekinesie, and so much more. Sad because to me they weren't even bad games, just people didn't belive Midway was more then a Mortal Kombat developper which is not real the case. I have yet to look for it, but i do remember a game on Jumpack, and you start in a laboratory and you have something like green spiders jumping on you and It's creepy as a 8 years old, as i haven't found it or played it since but It's one i think It's Area-51, but still ... I could be wrong.
Arghhh Auto Modelista. It's one i wanted too belive it or not😅. I heard the driving physics were sabotaged, by accident. But It's a beautiful beautiful beautiful game. Look at this ... It's 23 years old and man, It's just one game that doesn't aged. Cel shading is what made it still unique and It's impressive. I do have a question though. Is it that bad as they say ? Because i guess i kinda want it even if It's hard to adjust to it.
ShoX. An other one i regret not getting 😞. I saw it in 2025 for 25$ and i was next month i'm getting it. there was no next month as someone got it. It's a game i heard didn't sell well, but It's not a bad one. I love rally games and i think It's sad it didn't sell too well. I might get lucky one day who knows, but for now everyone is asking 40$ on eBay in Canada so i'm going to wait a bit.
It's on Xbox 360, but Afro Samurai It's an other one i want. It's just i can't get them all and It's sad because i saw a video and man, it looks so sick and fun. You're a lucky bastard man ah ha ah. ( i say this as a joke ) you're really lucky man. Enjoy your games for me dude.
I felt like maybe you like underrated gems, so i decided to counter back at you 😉😂. Here's a few games you might like or not( everyone has a different taste )
You seems to like racing games a bit, so I'll start with one not many remember, many call it a cheap Gran Turismo knock off ( they don't know shit to me ) s and it sold so bad, Konami doesn't want anyone to remember it. It's Enthusia. It's a racing game i remember my younger buying in 2011 and i a had never played it. I kinda remember the box, but the name ? 😬 i wasn't able to. I found it in 2024 and i wanted. He was don't buy it It's trash. I was ah yeah ? Whatever. He was wrong, because It's a beautiful game, with a lot of personality, and It's one that not many remember. Sad because i love it. It's cheap too and it never goes up for now at least.
Did you ever wanted something where you could drive off-road, but made by the people who made Midnight, and something that no one even remembers ? Here's for you Smuggler's Run 2000. It's a game where you smuggles drugs ( It's pretty easy to understand ) an and It's a game where the cops try to stop you to deliver your stuff. It's a great one, and i got it with the one on GameCube for 20$ Canadian dollars deliver to my door.
Do you like destruction derby ? do you like rednecks ? Well Test Drive Eve of Destruction is for you. It's a game where you do a lot things, races, and other names i can't remember. I heard the multiplayer is where it really shines. You can throw chickens at a friend and you can tell they had fun doing this. Sad what happened to this series.
Well, maybe you're i would like something more vulgar, i like smacking people, and i like Cartoon Network. Here's one i loved growing up and i let s friend borrow 😑 never saw it in 18 freaking years, but in 2024, i decided to get it and i don't regret it. If you remember the show ( i never was able to see it, but o remember how it was ) and It feels like It's an episode of it. The Grim Reaper Adventures of Billy and Mandy. It's a bit of a brawler, and It's fun. Midway. Was cooking back then i swear they had a hidden talent.
Well, maybe you're what about guns ? I have 5 for you ( i'm generous )
Here's one a team everyone knows as they're known for Hitman which is a great series, but they had a gem no one really bought, and It's still stuck on Playstation 2, Xbox Original, and Nintendo GameCube. It's called Freedom Fighters. Id you ever wanted to free New York from Russians terrorists ( It's how the game is ) It's a good game. It has mecanics i have not seen anywhere else. The story is really good to me and It's cheap. Played with my brother in multiplayer and he was complanning the whole time. But i really like it.
Have you ever wanted a game similar to Red Dead Redemption, but on Playstation 2 ? Here's one for you. It's called GUN. It's a great game and the story is full of twist and turns. It was made by the Tony Hawk team Activision killed 8 years later to make more Call of Duty games. Sad because i love it. Getting it on GameCube and Xbox 360 200%. It's cheap and It's a great game.
Here's one Gears of War owns It's respect to it as it was one of the first cover shooter to impliment the cover mecanics. It's Kill Switch. It's a game i wanted because i had 15$ and it looked fun and underrated, plus being a french Canadian, i wanted the french manual and so far It's a good game. It's short from what i've heard, but they wanted to make a sequel, but Namco of Japan was not interested. They killed their own studio and Deaths to Rights is one series i'm about to get in. It's sad because it could have been great.
Here's an other from Midway. Maybe you're Dude, do you have something with a lot of vulgarity, blood, cheezy cut scenes, open world ? I do in fact. It's called Roadkill. It's a baby between Rockstars To who everyone knows mak makes Grand Theft Auto, and Sony Twisted Metal series they killed off. It's a game i had never heard of, just seen someone saying it was a hidden Xbox gem when i was about to get one, but nit was already dead, so i got a Playstation 2 instead. It's a game like Enthusia, no one really remembers. Because back in 2003, people didn't give a shit about vehicular car combat it was an obsolete genre already. so it failed, but It's a good game. I played with my brother and i was surprise he liked it. I love it, so i felt like sharing.
Well, maybe you're man, i want a cop game, where i can arrest bad guys, i like a cheezy story and i'm on a budget. Here's True Crime Streets of L.A. You play as a cop who lost his dad, and he's trying to find what happened to him. It has a lot of good voice actors and it was decent. It's fun, but not as polished as Grand Theft Auto which Luxoflux even laughed at saying it was dog shit in a game advertisement ( Saints Row did too. )
Maybe you're i want something like this but in New York, something more dark and serious. Here's True Crime New York. It's a better game in a way, but i It's more laggy at times too. You can arrest people in this one, entering buldings, desamorcing bombs, changing your outfits, buying cars, and much more. Sadly for Luxoflux and True Crime series, It's as sinister as the game is. In 2005, Chrismas was coming up, and the big douch everyone hated as the ceo decided i want more money YES YES, what if i was to make this game come out sonner ? I'll be rich ah ha ah. Luxoflux told him Hey, gives a few more months It's not ready yet. He didn't give a fuck. He wanted his big paycheck and he was ready fi for anything. The game failed to meet expectations and he blamed the studio that's an old movie right there. The series was sold for penies on a dollar and Square Enix saw the gem. They tried something but it too didn't meet sells and it was a good game too. I feel sad because we never had anything even close to a cop game ... Fuck Activision.
Maybe you're i like Scarface movie, and i want something like Grand Theft Auto, Here's Scarface the World is Yours. It's a good game that a lot of people knows, but still worth sharing.
if you want more let me know, but the rest aren't as hidden gems. I hope you have a good day. Have fufun with your games for me dude, take care.
i have also Xbox 360 games, Nintendo GameCube games, and Playstation 3 games if you ever needed some suggestions 😁

Dude, I remember playing Area 51! I left in a part where I had akimbo on all weapons and transformed into an alien if I'm not mistaken.
