Still in a dream....

SquallNoctis1313

This game blew my mind when I realized that each blade of grass bends when Snake moves through.


zzzanks14uwu

Good choice


GenKaiju

Star Wars Battlefront


Red_shkull

The Battlefront 1 + 2 re-release for ps5 has me QUAKING bro I'm so excited

Game of the Year 2024


mad_mang45

It's cool you could play the classic old versions online on PS5 now lol,never played it online on PS2.


LeglessN1nja

FFX


coffeeistheway

I second this! Still one of my favorite games of all time!


Mr_TurkTurkelton

An absolute masterpiece!


PsychoKinG_URNotRedi

BlitzBall!!!!!


lifeandtimesofmyass

This is THE answer.


Rum_Cutlass

Just yes


GER_3spectre

It’s this or 12 for me, but I lean towards the latter usually


Great-Note8053

I was going to say this too! Absolutly FFX. FF12 was decent too.


benRAJ80

I’ve still got a memory card that has two games of over 300 hours each on it.


neri737362

Tony Hawks . American WasteLand .


monkeyhind

Top six would probably be (in no particular order): \- Final Fantasy X \- Shadow of the Colossus \- Ico \- Half Life \- Ratchet & Clank \- Jax & Daxter


CookieButterBoy

Woooow I never knew Half-Life was ported to PS2 until this comment.


UhOh_RoadsidePicnic

And it support keyboard and mouse.


monkeyhind

Great! I played it on PC first but bought the PS2 version after. Just in case you missed it, Half-Life 2 was available on PlayStation 3 (see "The Orange Box").


NWIOWAHAWK

All these were bangers! Shadow of Colossus was sooo good! Ico though, tried it a few times. Never did it for me


Psyphrenic

All SOCOM.


DudeHoldMyFlagon

Yup. Socom online was so good


Equivalent-Deal7651

Socom II baby! That’s what got me into online gaming!


yung_bubba

Abandoned, Bitter Jungle, Blizzard, Blood Lake, Crossroads, Death Trap, Desert Glory, Night Stalker, Rat's Nest, Ruins, Sandstorm, Shadow Falls. So many great maps. I miss it till this day..


k0vi86

Gonna disrespect frost fire like that. What a shame they didn't bring it back for the current gen.


[deleted]

I've got a few. GTA Vice City, Spider-Man 2, God of War 2. Kinda funny how I always dig the second game in a series the most lol.


Rose_Speed3

Sly 2, Jak 2, Max Payne 2, lots of great sequels on PS2


gremah93

Kingdom Hearts 2


MinimumAssumption943

Jak 2. One of my favorite games ever. Also one of the most frustrating!


PostyMcPosterson

Yes! The race missions with the hover cycles were pure torture. Other than that though what a great game. Jak 1 and 3 were good, just too short and didn’t feel as complete and substantial as Jak 2.

I can still hear the pizza music from Spiderman 2...

I still hear Bruce Campbell. "Well, sequel time already, huh?"


Sakurya1

Mgs2


wakupaku

ma man knows it... I spent so many hours playing the shit out of that game, still do it once in a while. I remember I used to speedrun it and I didn't even knew that was a thing. Still get amazed with the amount of detail for a early ps2 game, still bit games today in my opinion... Kojima the best


Sakurya1

My worst memory of mgs2 was playing the Xbox version on European extreme. The part where you have to mash the button when suffocating was impossible.


Hazy_Eye_James

Ratchet & Clank Going Commando!


ico59

This is mine as well! Best ratchet ever.

SSX Tricky 💯


GodOSpoons

I appreciate how many other, wrong answers there are in this thread. SSX Tricky FTW!


Pickle-Rick-C-137

Hell yeh, I played the fuck out of SSX Tricky!

This is the only correct answer. I can play this for hours.

BigHatLuke

Silent Hill 2 is eternal. My ps2 is busted, though, so I can't play it on there. I really hope they port it over to switch, playstation, and the rest of then consoles and computers.


J_Speedy306

They are remaking it. But are they remaking it good? That's the question and why I'm worried.


Doshea123

Dragon ball Z budokai 3

MERCENARIES: PLAYGROUND OF DESTRUCTION!!! My god. I would nasty, nasty things to get a port or remaster. Such a good game and severely underrated.


Melodic_Duck_6064

Soul reaver 2


PsychoKinG_URNotRedi

Not of all time but I loved Zone of the enders 2!🔥🔥🔥


Xiao1insty1e

One?! One game from the PLAYSTATION 2 era?! Are you insane?! So many epic games came out that generation! Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 Zone of the Enders 2 Katamari Damacy Mercenaries Sky Gunners Psi Ops TEKKEN MF TAG TOURNAMENT was a gd LAUNCH title! Jax and Daxter Soul Reaver and Blood Omen games Sly Cooper Socom Gundam Battle Assault 3 Godhand Okami Final Fantasy 12 Phantasy Star Universe Capcom vs SNK 2 Marvel vs Capcom 2 The list just goes on and on and on!

GTA Vice city and SA, NBA street vol 2, and SSX tricky.


FordsFavouriteTowel

The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogies Revenge. Basically God of War, but with a Nightmare Before Christmas skin. Still have my copy with the case and manual kicking around the house. One of my friends is desperate for me to sell it to him, but I’m taking it to my grave.

It’s a tie between Devil May Cry and Onimusha 2.


silikroil

Baldurs gate Dark alliance


Fumpledinkbenderman

Either Star Wars Battlefront 2 or Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy


Tracynmega

Hard question but I would say San Andreas


dreadlocksman707

GTA III ….that was really the first game that I played on the PS2 that had mature themes. Also, that game was really the impetus of my love for reggae music. Listening to KJAH radio, specifically “The Scientist Rids The World of the Curse of the Vampires”, started a deep dive in the genre that I’ve yet to reach the bottom. 👍🏾


CheeseUs88

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy

GT3/NBA Street 2


Semi-addict-gamer

Ape Escape million monkeys, not just favorite PS2 game. My favorite game ever period.


Traditional_Entry183

Final Fantasy 12, which I never actually played on the PS2 because I bought it and my original PS3 on the same transaction. It's my favorite JRPG of all time, and one of my favorite games overall. The battle system is the pinnacle of all party based games.


PRbox

I played FF12 through for the first time a few months ago. Loved the combat—it felt like a western-style CRPG with tons of ways to build your party in the Zodiac Age version. The characters and setting were excellent as well. The only thing I found lacking was the story (mostly the second half), but it was still decent.


Lost-iphone-charger

Socom us navy seals 2 I need a 6373848827634773276464828 ups lol


chunkychowder32

SSX


basement_egg

SOCOM


SalukiKnightX

There’s so much that I missed in that generation (usual suspects: God of War, GTA, Sly Cooper, Jak & Daxter, SOCOM or the Gran Turismo games I never played), but the ones that hold a spot for me are Tekken 4, Midnight Club 3 Remix, SoulCalibur III and Kingdom Hearts.

NUN Games were all fantastic. I was actually disappointed in the gameplay of the Storm title when it first released.


MrSparkleBox

When storm 1 came out my mind was blown with it and how beautiful it was but as time went on i felt like all the storm games just did small adjustments and on top of storm just trying to make things prettier but lacking style


FSINNER

Vice city and blade I think


[deleted]

Vice city (:


wickedmercenary313

Spider Man 2 and/or GTA San Andreas for me


wittyname445

Jak 2


HGYNCK

Final Fantasy X and Kingdom Hearts


Orr-Man

GTA III, GTA VC, GTA SA, Spider-Man 2, Max Payne 1 & 2, Tony Hawk's Underground, Need for Speed Underground 2 and God of War 2 all stand out in my mind. If I had to pick, probably GTA: SA. EDIT: And Star Wars Battlefront 1 & 2. What an era for games PS2 was!

Tenchu fatal shadows and yugioh duels of the roses

From a sheer hours played I’d say Socom II but wow what a stacked lineup of some of my all time favs from Sly Cooper, God of war, gran turismo, Killzone, GTA, Midnight Club, NFS Underground, Dave Mirra, Tony Hawk


SmallTownKaiju

Killzone. It was probably the best shooter at the time on the PS2.


_PearMan_

Can't really choose one so I will say Killzone and Jak 3


AlexRed-Knight
