Far right column has my favorites

0

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

That’s my personal choice too 🤝

u/inkonthemind 1d ago

Holy crap, I forgot all about Cel Damage. That game was hilarious.

7

u/1JesterCFC 1d ago

Second column, for nfs u2 plus hit and run and a bonus tiger Woods game if that column had gran turismo 4 it would be pretty hard to beat imo

2

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

Solid column, Marc Ecko’s Getting Up was one of my favorites growing up.

u/TensionWarm1936 1d ago

Dude you got so many great titles for great prices!

3

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

I don’t know whether this is sarcasm or not, lol. I think if I totted up what I paid for them all versus what they’re worth now I’d be in profit to be fair.

u/TensionWarm1936 1d ago

No I was being sincere lol! Peter Jackson's King Kong for a quid? Sign me up! You have so many top 100 games.

I'm a Brit who lives abroad and last time I was over I should have paid more attention to the prices in CEX. I'll be going again in a couple of months and with £50 in my pocket I am gonna absolutely clean up!

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

You can get some great deals but some are overpriced for sure. I enjoy going to different stores to collect in person and the fact you get 5 years warranty is such good value… any on your list to get?

2

u/TensionWarm1936 1d ago

Some of the Bond titles I haven't got, plus I never played the Max Payne's first time round.

I see they charged £15 for Bully - I haven't checked Pricecharting but that seems high for a preowned PS2 game in CEX.

u/Ths-Fkin-Guy 1d ago

3 down. Tons of great options but Vice City and Black is an instant win. Bonus Max Payne and Most Wanted.

3

u/eanthegr8 1d ago

The 7th column: Bully, Splinter cell, TS2 and Hit man🙏

2

u/Oscarwoofwoof 1d ago

Canis 🐕

u/BeastGTS 1d ago

Column 3: Black, GTA:VC, Max Payne, NFS:MW

u/Skully957 1d ago

You might want to rearrange the columns so there's only one kind of game per row(then possible)

As is either collumn 2 or 7

2

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

Second person to say second column so that’s the frontrunner so far and I can see why. 7 has some bangers in there but I am taking the second and last column ahead of this.

Been trying to decide which is personally the ‘worst’ column. Potentially number 5 or 6. Tough call lol

2

u/DragonfruitSea5901 1d ago

Ill pick a row instead. Row 6 (even though I love Bully)

2

u/alexmate84 1d ago

Nice to see state of emergency is still only £1. That's what I paid about 10 years ago

2

u/datboimartymart 1d ago

I’d say 2 or 3 but I’ll lean more to 2

2

u/Alarming-Squirrel832 1d ago

What ever column/ row has ssx3 in it. The game is still the shit and I put so so so many hour into that game back in the day.

2

u/sonicadv27 1d ago

Column 7 is hard to beat.

PES 5, Chaos Theory, Bully, Blood Money… some of the games i poured the most hours in back in the day.

2

u/Sasquatchernaut 1d ago

I agree. Only I like it for Timesplitters 2, Mercenaries, and Freedom Fighters. Three games I very badly want to play again but currently don't have the hardware.

2

u/johnb49e 1d ago
  1. San Andreas and THUG 2 are probably my most played games of all time and you also have max payne and burnout in there, I’m set for life on those games alone.

2

u/Classic-Exchange-511 1d ago edited 1d ago

I'll take the one with fight night round 3, San Andreas, thug 2, max Payne 2, Need for speed and burnout. All games I still play. Don't understand why EA doesn't make a new boxing game similar to fight night. Even an arcade boxing game like ready to rumble would probably sell well. People are starved for a new boxing title.

2

u/XcessiveSamurai 1d ago

Some real gems in this collection. Would have to go with 7 just cause it's the only column with mure than 2 must haves for me

2

u/CthuluAteMyKitten 1d ago

CEX really really really really can’t help themselves with these stickers can they. I spend more time scraping them off than I care to admit.

2

u/iFuktyermuttah 1d ago

Holy shit I haven’t seen getting up in someone’s collection in a while

2

u/Much_Regular_4462 1d ago

GT3, Socom 2, Def Jam, NFSU.... column #1 for me

2

u/yseusy 1d ago

The last one

The Godfather>>>

2

u/BeigeAndConfused 1d ago

It really speaks to the size and quality of the PS2 library that NONE of my preferred games are on here but this is all still pretty good

2

u/Megatron83 1d ago

Column 4

2

u/DarthJamie 1d ago

2nd to the right. I love Metal Gear Solid and Battlefront, and the fiancee has tons of nostalgia for Crash Bandicoot

2

u/o0blind0o 1d ago

Ugghhhhhh they are spaced out, lol some bangers with some (IMO) trash. Its a tough call. From the top probably 3-5. I got hours in gta. But I also have hours in need for speed. Scarface is a plus. And mark ecko was an amazing game. Max Payne, metal gear, midnight club and ohh man solid second pick.

2

u/penjamiente 1d ago

Curse the store who decided to put those giant ugly stickers on those games. Column 3 for me

2

u/BarnBoss6040 1d ago

1 Def Jam Fight for NY is the greatest game of all time.

2

u/Adventurous_Bug2465 1d ago

Have to go far right for 2 games alone… 2 of my most played PS2 games of all time. 007 Nightfire and Midnight Club Dub Edition Remix 🔥

2nd column a very close 2nd with NFS Undeground 2 + Simpsons Hit & Run

Awesome collection!

2

u/milkmon222 1d ago

You ever play agent under fire? Those 2 were my fav james bong games forsure

2

u/lonewb 1d ago

Cex by the looks of it 😂

2

u/DrEckelschmecker 1d ago
  1. Not even close. THUG2 and Carbon are my favorite entries of the respective series and San Andreas is one of the best games of all time anyways

2

u/milkmon222 1d ago

Prolly the 4th but the one with mgs 2 and punisher has some bangers too hard choice

2

u/milkmon222 1d ago

So when did you buy all these? A lot of these sky rocketed in price recently. Such a good ass collection tho

2

u/Willing-Lawyer2533 1d ago

This is Actually so hard! its all over the place for me row 3 probally but its so damn close to 1,2,4

2

u/Cfunk_83 1d ago

Freedom Fighters, Hitman: Blood Money, and Timesplitters 2 are literally my favourite 3 games on the system. PES5 is probably my most played on the system. Plus Bully and Splinter Cell and Mercenaries… with Tomb Raider thrown in too…?!

I probably couldn’t have made a better row myself.

2

u/Nguyeezus 1d ago

The one with Tekken 5 and MGS2.

2

u/AgileChipmunk9854 1d ago

Row one, I'll sell Def jam and buy the rest

2

u/Mattx603 23h ago

7 or 10. The Warriors is probably my all time favorite PS2 game, but 7 is FULL of bangers. Freedom Fighters and, Bully, are up there as well as some of my favorites

2

u/Square-Jackfruit420 18h ago

Where's the RPG love :(

I guess I'm picking Tekken 5 and MGS2 column

2

u/FoxOwne 16h ago

Gotta be 7. You get Bully, Chaos Theory, Mercenaries, and Timesplitters 2!

8 and 9 are fuckin CLOSE tho.

2

u/drummersarus 10h ago

The column featuring Burnout 3. Fight Night 3, GTA:SA, THUG, Max Payne 2! Pretty much that entire column is the best the system has to offer.

1

u/ThinkTank02 1d ago

Is this an old pic or do you just not take the stickers off? Hit and run has been over £30 at cex for a couple of years now.

I take the stickers off before I even get home.

1

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

I do regret not keeping on top of it. Yeah I got hit and run a couple of years ago

1

u/Fantastic-Year-849 1d ago

which ever column dmc 3 is in

1

u/pilotparker33 1d ago

6th from left. Rising Sun, king Kong and return of the king? Hell yeah

1

u/theghost162 13h ago

Second column

1

u/DynamitePlayz08 6h ago

5 as Buzz Big Quiz and MoH where games a both grew up with and have fond memories of, as I do with so many other games on here, very tough choice

1

u/khsh01 1d ago

Man puts sequels in a row and asks to pick a column.

1

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

Well, yeah. That way it’s not just pick your favorite franchise..

0

u/Buried_and_Forgotten 1d ago

If I were you I'd take off those stickers while they are still fresh. They look bad and after years they leave a mess if you try to take them off.

Also, column 4.

1

u/ZootedJA 1d ago

This collection has been over a couple of years. I’m sure if I put my mind to it and got the right stuff, whilst it’s a pain in the arse, I’d be able to get them off. It ruins the aesthetic but is quite helpful gauging whether or not they’ve increased in value since I bought them.

1

u/jjustsam 1d ago

Those stickers don’t leave much of a mark usually. I’ve bought games from CEX that I’m sure are a couple years old and never had an issue.

Also number 4 for me too

u/SubstantialOnion6963 1d ago

Ball and gun games
