Best of the PS2 era

Ahh... the old PS2... i still miss them...! :D

Zone of the Enders, Zone of the Enders 2, Xenosaga series, and Rogue Galaxy. To bad I don't remember some more ps2 games with good story I had quite a bit more but I am unable to recall them. P.S. even if it doesn't have such a great story I think you should try Robot Alchemic Drive its a fun game especially since you have full control over 3 different types of giant robots :D.

Or you can try ChainDive :)

MY STREET!

GOD OF WAR 1 and 2 and Shadow of the colossus!

Final fantasy X is all there needs to be said, i miss them days of killing dark aeons, or killing ultimate beasts in the monster arena.

Also played X-2, never got to finish it, was at like 93%, some big corridor type of dungeon, i sort of remember the name, it even had a background music of it's own, which was pretty sweet.

MGS 3: snake eater, good game, good moments. I can't seem to remember anything else... I got FF12, but it doesn't even work on my ps2 anymore sadly. My bro bought it and played it, but i can't play it due to some controller issues. Otherwise it could have been another addition to the list.

Xenosaga episodes 1 to 3. All time favorite JRPGs. The story is just superb and carries over through all three games. Though I feel gameplay and art-wise (though the graphics are technically superior, it took a different path from the other two with the art) that the second game is a bit weak. But I am in the minority with my view of the second game.

Edit: Also, Lifeline. It has its issues and never was a very popular game, but I always loved it. It is a survival horror game, more in the line of something like Parasite Eve than Silent Hill/Resident Evil. But the catch is that you control the game with your headset instead of a controller.

It is the grand opening of a massive space station hotel, and the hotel is suddenly attacked by an unknown breed of aliens. You play as one of the guests who escapes to the security room. Through the monitors, you see a survivor, a waitress from the hotel's dining room. You talk her through the game via your headset, telling her where to go, what to examine in each room, how to solve puzzles, and where to aim on each enemy you encounter.

Call of duty 2 ( no haters please)

The Dreamcast

Metal Gear Solid.
Black
God of War
Shadow of the Colossus

Beyond classic games. Fking pieces of art.

Damn, I'd love to have games like Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank on PC :/

Also I remember one game I loved to play when visiting a friend of mine, which probably no one remembers, which is Smugglers Run from Rockstar ^^

The Sega Dreamcast

Shadow Hearts and Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Suikoden III and V
Xenosaga series
Tales of the Abyss
Ys: The Ark of Napishtim
Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits (and since you mentioned you have a PSP, the collection on PS1 is real cheap there)

All very good RPGs with great stories.

"The PS2 was crap. They didn't have good games." Said no one ever.

The PS2 had some good games around my young age. Here are the games that I recommend for people to play

Kingdom Hearts (1, 2, and COM remake)
Dragon Quest VIII
Persona 3 FES and 4
Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 and Dragon Ball Z, Buidokai Tenkaichi 2
GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas (Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories are decent additions to the GTA series)
Final Fantasy X (The last good FF game to be made for the PS2)
Xenosaga series (Only played one so I can't give you the full experience, but I enjoyed the first one)
Sly Cooper series (1-3)
Jak and Daxter series (1-3)
Ratchet and Clank (1-3)
Devil May Cry (1 and 3, 2 was just a little bit meh to me)
Disgaea 1 and 2 (like Final Fantasy Tactics, but longer and more replay value)
Prince of Persia series (1-3, but one is the best of them all)
God of War 1 and 2
Tales of the Abyss
and if you like Yu-gi-oh, Yu-gi-oh: The Duelist of the Roses (not your ordinary Yu-gi-oh card game)

That's about it. Very unique PS2 games that I enjoyed.

Jak and Daxter series

Ratchet and Clank series,
Need for Speed 2: Underground,
Jak & Dexter 2&3 (I really didn't like 1 to be honest and yes I've tried it),
Kingdom Hearts 1&2, &
Metal Gear Solid 1-3.

Thanks to everyone to contributed to this thread, gotten enough game for the time being I think :)
