I love my PS2 but some of my all-time favourite games have been the Zelda series. Are there any good Zelda-type games for the PS2? So far I've played Okami which was great and very like a Zelda game. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
you want a really good Zelda look alike I'd definitely look towards Ys: The Ark of Nypstyn (or something like that) lol. It is a lot like the older zelda games and has the style of like the gameboy and super nintendo, and nintendo Zelda classics before the N64 and beyond. Also Ar Tonelico in the gameplay and graphic style looks like the classic zelda games / meets final fantasy and you might enjoy it as well.
Ico and Shadow of the Colossus are awesome games that have a bit of Zelda similarity but no where near as close as that of Okami. Still you should try them out since they're both incredible in my opinion.
Legend of Kay is very Zelda-like and its a pretty decent game.
Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is half Zelda (when you play the Sphinx) and half puzzle (when you play the Mummy). This is a good game if you can find it.
Neopets: the Darkest Faeire copies the Zelda formula and you can find it dirt cheap right now. It's not the best game but its an option.
I'll note that I played Dark Cloud and it did not remind me of Zelda at all. It is more of a dungeon crawler than anything else. I don't know about Dark Cloud 2. Maybe its a lot different than the first one.
I was actually surprised at how similar the God of War series reminds me of Zelda. Puzzles, combat, items, skills and magic. Not to mention how beautiful the two games are especially part 2, it's a stunner.
