Eva games from Left to Right:
1. Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku - Asuka Hokan Keikaku
It kinda like one of those "Princess Maker"/"Tokimeki Memorial" games.
You are Rei/Asuka's guardian and make schedule/plans for them, such as school/training.

2. Typing E-Keikaku
It's just a typing game with Eva charaters in it.

3. Evangelion 2
Well.... I'm being lazy, but here you go. (It's not official websites, but you can see what type of game it is.)

Easily speaking: GunParadeMarch NGE style.

"Neon Genesis Evangelion 2" is part of GAINAX's "Evangelion Revival" projects and was done in collaboration with the game company Alfasystem - who gained fame and reputation for their Playstation game "Gun Parade March."

Technically speaking, Eva2 is where you control Shinji (and other characters as you progress) and you have quasi-total control over what you can do. Ala, the game play is very much like "Gun Parade March."

I want to play FMA, that game must be great since it's a RPG made by Square-Enix.

By the way on that Cowboy Bebop game.
Cowboy Bebop is an action adventure title that will allow you to control Spike, Jet, or Faye. Players who use Spike will be privy to his full arsenal of Jeet Kune Do, while those playing as Jet will have access to his bull-dog fighting style. Whether Faye will have any special abilities is still unknown. Additional characters and gameplay modes can be unlocked, theoretically by capturing certain bounties. Yoko Kanno's jazz music is also featured.
It's unclear whether the game will follow the storyline of the anime or if the Cowboy Bebop game uses an original side story. Regardless, Bandai claims that the game will unravel mysteries in the Bebop storyline.

naruto game is a fighter, but nothing too deep here
its a kiddy game where the combos are hitting buttons in a sequence

FMA is kinda like kingdom hearts
quite fun, good cutscenes

seed is a mundane side scroller with pretty bad graphics and cutscenes straight from the show
i would give this one a miss

Probably like DBZ Budakai... o well I just get enjoyment from being able to use characters from an anime^^

Judging from the reply's the only one to look forward to is F.M.Alchemist, It's by Sqaure Enix it has to be good =P.

Typing E-keikaku was a game for the PC.
Maybe there was one for the PS2 - even so, I wouldn't be so surprised as all you can do is connect a USB keyboard to the PS2 with the proper drivers that is included in the FFXI set.

They've also now come up with a Shinji version of Ayanami Ikusei Keikaku - Asuka Hokan Keikaku.

Look at Gainax Go! Milk that series for all it's worth!

Since you mentioned Gundam ^^, how is Mobile Suit Gundam: Encounters in Space (if you ever played it). I heard you can use Gundams from G Gundam, Gundam Wing, Gundam Seed, Etc.

I never played any gundam games for ps2 i played the crappy ones on ps1, except the imported ones that never made it here were sweet. I forget the names of them one of them, one was like chess (on a grid and you move units) very similar to FF:Tactics, and the other was your on a stage beating the shit out of each other (1v1) it was similar to armored core. Those were the greatest ps1 games I played even though I didnt understand the text the gameplay was fun ^^.

I tried that game. It's okay for long distance attacks, and it does feature a lot of Gundams. However, I didn't find the melee fighting that well done. It feels like smashing action figures together instead of actual fighting, like Virtual-On or something.

You're talking about this Gundam Seed game right?

http://www.netjak.com/review.php/389

Um...I'd stay away from that one by the looks of it.

If you have a GameCube, I'd pick up the Naruto 2 game on the GC instead, because the PS2 version of that game is basically the GC Naruto 1. If you have a GBA, I really liked the Naruto Konoha Senki game. If you buy it on Ebay, though, ask the seller to make sure the "Save" function works.

I haven't played any of the Eva games...but FMA does look nice...I'll probably wait for the US release, though.

I bought GITS: SAC, and it's on its way over here from HK.

Anyway, you've had your turn...has anyone seen any info on these games:

Don't mind the links, I don't work for them, and they're obviously not associate credit links...I just happen to know Lik-Sang has the game in stock.

Fu-un Shinsengumi PS2:

Generation of Chaos IV:
(By the looks of it, I am ALL over that.)

Crimson Tears:

I sold a bunch of my old imports, and I was looking to get newer ones. I'm trying to figure out which I shell out for and which I wait on...

No, it's the Gundam: Encounters in Space game that Bandai brought over to the United States. In the game, I believe you can customize what main gun you use w/ your Gundam. Plus, you get to choose which pilot (or create your own pilot). The pilot determines how maneuverable, etc, I believe.

No, no. I was referring to the original post. I know the game you're talking about. It was Gundam Seed Meguriai Sora, and it came with a bonus DVD of the Gundam anime series done with the game engine if you bought the first edition, which I had, and just sold recently.
