Does anyone have recommendations for video games? To give you an idea, we have a PS2, and our favorite games seem to be goofy and destructive. (Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, etc.)

Hmm, I like resident evil. It's goofy too, but it's fun, so who cares?

I'm fairly certain there's one, if not two, Buffy games for PS2. At least one. And those make ME happy anyway. There's lots of running around, stabbing vampires with stakes and watching them go, "AAAAAARGGH! *POOF!*". Also, at least in the 2nd game, you get to play Sid the Ventriloquist Dummy - which is comedy gold.

I find it cathartic.

*giggles* Yep - I bought 'Chaos Bleeds' today for the princely sum of £4 in the 2nd-hand games shop. Awesome fun, particularly when you get to play against each other collecting bunnies! My housemate was all "bagsy Faith" and I was all "bagsy Willow" and then the glee commenced.

Other recommendations... Lego Star Wars ('II' is the original trilogy, if you're feeling purist) is great fun, particularly when you get to blow up barrels and boxes and things and they explode in Lego bricks. And you pretty much don't die in it. And when you've unlocked enough stuff you can play as Darth Vader or the Emperor and blow people up with the Force.

Dunno if crashing cars counts as goofy and destructive, but generally when we're having a drunken party round ours we play 'Burnout Revenge' on the modes where the winner's the one who causes the hugest and most catastrophic crash.

That's the one! I couldn't remember the name - Chaos Bleeds. :)

Omg, the bunny multiplayer level. *laughs and laughs* Total win.

Lemmings! I got a Lemmings game for my PSP (and I think I have one for my PS2 that I never use) and it is so fun omg, but also really hard on some levels.

Katamari Damacy pretty much defines goofy and destructive.

We're addicted to Mario Galaxy.. but that doesn't help you.

the last few PS2 games I enjoyed were God of War, Prince of Persia, and Kingdom Hearts.. so that kinda says where my mind is at.

We go for generally-non-violent, don't-kill-your-partner games (I've got three kids and I don't like them "killing" each other. We play Lego Star Wars II (the original trilogy), Lego Indiana Jones, and Dance, Dance Revolution.

All fun things I can play with my kids.

Kingdom Hearts, Jak & Dexter, if you're into cars, then Gran Turismo is fun, I love the survival-horror genre so stuff like Resident Evil, Clock Tower and Fatal Frame; when I play rpgs occasionally I go back to the original playstation and go with Final Fantasy 7 and ChronoCross. I tend to prefer the Nintendo series, though, because I love platformers like Mario and especially Paper Mario.

Ooh and yeah. Mario Galaxy and Paper Mario 3D or...something. Wait. Paper 3D might be a Wii game.

I saw someone mention Galaxy though.
