Awesome recommendations -- thanks all. I'm leaning towards Beyond Good and Evil for this weekend and have RAD and Viewtiful Joe on my list for the future. The first and the last look right up his alley and RAD is cheap and interesting enough to pick up on spec even if he doesn't replay it a billion times. (I yield the PS2 to him until GTA: San Andreas comes out. Then he has to fight me for it and I still have a good 80lbs and 12"on him. (Hmmm... Maybe I should stop paying for his karate. I wasn't thinking ahead there.))

If I had the time and a computer that didn't suck balls I'd check out Kingdom Under Fire as well.

It's actually KUF:The Crusaders, according to GameFAQs. Again, XBox only. Again, the older PC RTS game by this name is absolute derivative crap... go get a Warlords Battlecry if you MUST have an RTS/RPG combo game.

And my new favorite PS2 game might very well be Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy. Review coming soon, if I can find enough screenshots of people being set on fire to justify all the fire-centric captions I've already got written for them. I bring up fire because in this game, you can set people on fire... with your mind! Or bounce them around like so many pinballs... with your mind! Or just gun them down.

Plus: ragdoll physics! They make Psi-Ops even better, which - if not for Fussbett's First Law Of Ragdoll Physics In Gaming - would be theoretically impossible!
