Kingdom Hearts is certainly a game that is a must purchase for many reasons. One, it's a greatest hits game so it's cheap, two, it's Disney's FIRST RPG and finally, it's VERY LONG! The game is based off all of the final fantasy games, where your a young boy teamed up with other characters on a quest to fight evil till the end. In this case you are Sora, and teamed up with Donald and Goofy and you are trying to rescue Sora's friends and Mikey, who is also trying to defeat the evil known as the heartless. What seta this game apart from the other rpgs is that it isn't based on paused battles, (where each character gets to battle the enemy one at a time with a choice of commands.) Instead u mainly control Sora, and it is action based, still with the commands, but the game does not stop while chosing. This game is a MUST BUY!

Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X2 are also great games to purchase on a count of they are so long and have the best storylines and graphics. The cinematics are so life-like, it looks like more like a move rather than a game. I advise that you play X before even starting X2 as you will not know what is going on in X2 if you never beat X. The special effects of these games are so awesome, there are so many spells and so many ways to fight. Imagination is also necessary for these types of games. The story tends to be a bit over your head if your not an open minded person.

Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City, now available in the same package, are great games to buy, they have many missions in the game which will keep you busy for a while and you can also rome around the streets stealing cars, messing with people, and site seeing because the sites are authentic. The stories in these games are not thier strong parts but the length and the mission difficulties make up for it in the long run.

WWE Smackdown: Here Comes The Pain is the most up to date wrestling game out right now. This game will keep you busy forever, there are so many match types. From singles to elimination chamber matches it has it all. With over 40 wrestlers to choose from, including legends, the playability is endless. Of course you have to be a wrestling fan to appreciate the game so if you hate wrestling, DON'T BUY IT!

Any Resident Evil game of it's series, whether it is 0 or Code Veronica X is a must buy. This series also applies with the Final Fantasy X and X2 games, where they are all linked together so play the earlier ones before the later ones or else you will be confused. The story and graphics are what got me here. Again great story and great cinematics. These games tend to be very thrilling and exciting to me but I'd advise young children to stay away, since it can tend to be scary. These games are action/platform games, no rpg, just mainly strategy and action, so if that's what you want, go get it!

Mario Kart Double Dash, the only racing game I would purchase. I hate racing games but when you mixing racing with violence I am in heheh. I especially like this game because of it's newly added features, 2 people per kart and the special weapons. this makes the racing much more challanging, switching characters, driving, and taking out opponents! I love the new courses as well a lot more exciting than the older versions.
