Whats your favorite PS2 game?

In my opinion GTA SA such a huge and cool world.

GWAVE6302d ago

The awesome thing about the PS2 is that even a "Top 25" list would leave out a lot of great titles.

Immortal Kaim6302d ago

Agree Gwave, much like the Snes and PS1, there are just so many excellent games from many genres. I love my PS2.

fishd6302d ago

SOTC/ICO
GOW
MGS
GT
FF
Okami
RE
Yakuza
Beyond good & Evil
DMC
R&C
J&D
...
OMG so many great Games it is hard to choose only 5!

oriol0036302d ago

Such a great console RIP PS2 I will always remember you when I open my closet.

burbulla6302d ago

A similar list of Ps3 games would leave out great games!

Aclay6302d ago

I totally agree with that list. I haven't played a Final Fantasy game before, so I can't really speak on FFX, but I've heard nothing but good things about that game, so I wasn't surprised to see it in the Top 5.

GTA3 for me wasn't my favorite, but I guess it was included in the Top 5 because it's the GTA game that really started the GTA revolution and I can agree with that, but San Andreas is still my favorite GTA game to this day.

My Top 5 PS2 game would go in this order:

1.Shadow of the Colossus
2.God of War 2
3.Metal Gear Solid 3
4.GTA:San Andreas
5. ICO

caladbolg7776302d ago

I can't do top5, but I can do top10.

Shadow of the Colossus
Silent Hill 2
Okami
Kingdom Hearts
Ico
Disgaea
Digital Devil Saga
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Odin Sphere
Gitaroo Man

Danja6301d ago

1. SOTC
2. GOW - The 1st one is still the best
3. MGS3
4. FFX
5. GTA : VC

LightofDarkness6301d ago

Final Fantasy X is on the list, which means this article is already a failure. Come on, XII is better in every conceivable way, the story in X is like an episode of Smallville or some other overly romanticised teenage derived drivel with some of the worst voice acting in videogame history. The combat system was extremely poor to boot. And since when is GTAIII better than either VC or SA?

God of War II certainly gets the nod, as does SOTC. But ICO deserves a slot methinks. And for god's sake get FFX out of there.

SotC vs ICO

That's a tough call.

LeonSKennedy4Life6302d ago

SotC over Ico...but only for the whole "fun factor" thing. They are both so incredible!

The_Zeitgeist6302d ago

I think GTA: San Andreas was better than 3. Even vice city was.

ape0076302d ago

the ps2 gta games omg they were AAA

gta 4 wasn't as good

Alanah Pearce, who was a writer at Sony Santa Monica for several years and worked on God of War Ragnarök, has shed more light on the sex minigames which cropped up in the series' earlier entries.

SoloGamer168d ago

🙄 is this all she could come up with for content? sheesh

127maXimus68d ago

Other than looking like that, why does anyone care about what she has to say about anything?

Both requels over 2 and 3? Clowns. Those are two of the most boring games I've ever played.

Snookies12924d ago

GoW 3 was amazing, but I personally hated just one thing. (This is on me alone, because I was dumb, lol.) I hated that you couldn't skip cutscenes on repeat playthroughs. I had to go back through the game a third time because I missed one trophy accidentally on my way to the platinum... The cutscenes were great the first go round, even the second... But the third was pretty agonizing.

Haven't played Ragnarok, but I still think GoW 4 is a wonderful game in its own right. Not sure how I would stack them up against each other honestly.

Monstieur924d ago (Edited 924d ago )

I don't consider the reboot part of the original series. The original series were high-skill games with combos and rewards for mixing things up.

solideagle924d ago

lol square, square and triangle is the only combo you needed. I have played all of them on the hardest difficulties...

Golfcoachh924d ago

Maybe I’m just old school but I just couldn’t get into the last two. Maybe it’s the slower action and more story telling but the original trilogy was by far my favorite.

Crows90924d ago

It's not that youre old school. They're different genres

JL2930923d ago (Edited 923d ago )

Me either, at all. It's just yap yap yap. They try to be a RPG's instead of being action games like they used to be.

Fluke_Skywalker924d ago

I'd put the two psp games over 3 in terms of story any day. But not over 2.

TheEnigma313924d ago (Edited 924d ago )

My favorite was part 2 and I think Ragnarok is better that 2018.

Shane Kim924d ago

The newer games are better imo.

ravens52924d ago

There is no worst. Except for Ascension, only cause I didn't play it lol. They are all masterpieces. 1,2,3, 2018 and Ragnarok. 1 of, if not the greatest video game franchise...besides MetalGear.

Snookies12924d ago

Oh wow, I actually forgot that Ascension even existed... I never played it either.

Crows90924d ago

I like ascension. It was different and some interesting combat additions.

darthv72924d ago

If you didnt play it, how could you call it the worst? Its not as bad as the media portrayed it. Honestly the worst are those flash games. they arent even considered true GoW games but in name only. At least Ascension is a real GoW game.

ravens52924d ago

Not saying it's a terrible game. Just mean it's at the bottom of my list. I played a little bit of it. Jus to me, compared to the other main games, it's last.

Fluke_Skywalker924d ago

Ascension is the only GOW game I never finished. Hated it.

Inverno924d ago

Can't agree, older games do so much more than the last two. More weapons, magic abilities, enemies are more varied, level design is also more aesthetically pleasing, and agree with those who say that they shouldn't have removed jumping. Was a time I'd agree, but those old games are so so much better, that they really should've looked into bringing into the reboot/sequels.

Crows90924d ago (Edited 924d ago )

If a game is good then a game is good. Doesn't matter what came before or what comes after.

Inverno924d ago

Of course it matters. If not for what what came before there wouldn't be an after. And if something is great before then you strive to make it just as good if not better, after. I personally don't think there's a fair way to judge the new with the old because the newer games are still essentially a reboot, and went a way different direction. But I still believe the old games did it better. I'm probably bias though since I've been going back to old games and have been finding that they lack all the annoying aspects that devs have shoehorned into new games to fluff out game time.

Crows90923d ago

@Inverno

Im not talking about the passage of time here. Im talking about individual pieces of software. If a game is good then it is good. Thats not a controversial statement. You can compare good with good...sure. But you still end up with good. Now if there is a bad game in the mix and you compare you do end up with some differentials between them...makes sense to compare and see where it went wrong.

But theyre different genres and styles which were individually executed very well.

And no. The new games are not a reboot. Theyre a new direction but simply a continuation.
Tomb raider was a reboot.

Inverno923d ago

The new games are definitely a reboot, and a continuation, it can be both which it is. And a good game might be good, but my point is that if there are things done better before it then there's plenty of room for critiquing and trying to make whatever comes after better rather than just good.

A Look Through the Absolute Best PS2 Games of All Time

isarai955d ago

It's so disappointing that to this day, I have not seen a game match what BLACK offers in an FPS.

ApocalypseShadow954d ago

Shame isn't it. I thought we'd be at a point of destructible backgrounds, objects, pyrotechnics etc in shooters. I sold many a copy in the demo unit when I managed a franchise Game Crazy back then. But I stopped playing shooters because they didn't evolve. Heavy weapon. Shoot a wall or glass. Nothing happens. Lol. Except for Killzone 2. I enjoyed that.

But then I woke and remembered it's EA. EA didn't care really. They just wanted to kill competition from Criterion and Burnout. And own Renderware to profit from as many developers used that engine. Only thing was that developers ran as fast as they could away from EA to Unreal Engine and its pop in and Vaseline graphics. Shame on EA. And then they bought Dice for Frostbite. Evil busters.

Anyway, too many PS2 games to count. Some of my personal faves being DMC, Genji, Bujingai, Blood Will Tell, Onimusha, Way of the Samurai, Japanese Berserk, Japanese Macross game that blew away the US Robotech game, RAD, Castlevania Lament of Innocence.... there's just too many. Let me stop. Lol

Cacabunga954d ago

Code Veronica
Dead or Alive 2 Hardcore
The Getaway
Time Crisis 3
Killzone
Mark of Kri
SSX

are some of my all times favorites missing on that list

shinoff2183954d ago

I've always Saud I'm not a fan of fps much , there's been some I really like and thought were really dope. Black falls into that category.

CoNn3rB954d ago

I would love nothing more than a remaster of the Jak series, including Jak X

Flawlessmic954d ago (Edited 954d ago )

The greatest console of all time !!!!

The last console from when gaming was pure, games didn't take 5 years to release, no online only, no half finished games, no mtx.

Ps2 was just banger after banger after banger.

It will always be my favourite.

sagapo954d ago

No Timesplitters in the list??

FinalFantasyFanatic953d ago

This is a really good list, pretty happy with the choices here.
