The Monday letters wonders what happens if Call Of Duty is no longer a big seller, as one reader recommends Dead Space 2.

No remake necessary I don’t think any reasonable person can deny that Sony are being weird about the way they’re handling the PS Plus switchover, and I can’t suggest any obvious reason why. (Although the weekend feature suggestion that the heading of Sony marketing is an Xbox double agent did make me laugh.) Hopefully this will all blow over once the service is launched though, and we can get onto the important business of arguing about which of the games are best.
Since Sony hasn’t said anything about PlayStation 2 games yet I’m particularly curious to see what people think are the best games on history’s most successful console. I think in many cases they haven’t aged much better than PS1 games, so whether they’re still playable today is a big factor in this question.
Shadows Of The Colossus, for example, is a great game but in my opinion there’s zero reason you shouldn’t play the PlayStation 4 remake instead. That still leaves the amazing Ico though, as well as other undisputed classics like Silent Hill 2 (also rumoured to be getting a remake), Resident Evil 4 (ditto), Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time (also ditto), and Metal Gear Solid 3 (there were rumours at least).
We’ve obviously got to that era of nostalgia where lots of PlayStation 2 games are getting revived but as well as Ico I also loved Burnout 2, Ōkami, Katamari Damacy, Persona 4, SSX Tricky. I have no idea if any of these games are going to make it onto PS Plus Extra but I hope so, because some of them haven’t seen the light of day for quite a while.Xane
