I only have 123 PS1 games and 490 PS2 games :(. It's hard to pass them up since they've been dirt cheap the last few years.

Really Sony has massive libraries on all of their consoles I pity the fool who goes for a complete PS1 or PS2 library :P.

Oh god that would be awful :shock: I don't have too many PS2 games (59 right now), but my wishlist for the console is incredibly long. Plus whenever I think I've put down all that I want for it, I somehow find more good looking games .__.

I'm in the same boat :/
I have about 60 PS2 games, but that's the generation that it seems VC and such have just really not had enough time to catch up with like they've had with PS1. It seems like every time I think I'm done with looking for more PS2 games I find more I want Xp

Except for a few obvious ones (like licensed titles), I stopped buying most PS2 stuff when they started the HD remasters thing. Easily my favorite trend of last gen... they usually had 2-3 games, budgeted at $40, and usually (not always) looked and performed better, with trophies if you're into that sort of thing. So I'd always hold out hope that my favorite PS2 titles would be remastered. Many haven't, of course... but the new "PS2 on Ps4" isn't a terrible substitute.

I know, I know... we're talking about collecting the originals here. I'm just talking about playing them.

Now Sony re-releases The Last of Us "remastered." For full price. For a single last gen game.

Wow I never realized how bland the PAL PS2 spines are. Sure there is uniformity but it just looks kind of meh :P.

Awesome collection though.

Japanese Saturn games have the best spines. Japanese on one side, English on the other!

Yeah but they're in boring CD cases! One thing I was looking forward to when I bought my Saturn recently was getting some games in those oversized jewel cases...
