GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Tuesday, Sep 2, 2008

I just thought I would tell people what my top ten PS2 games are, if anyone is interested, simply because I havent blogged in ages. Most are predictable.

10. Timesplitters 2 - This is one of my favourite FPS, i still play it with my friends. It is a fun FPS, it is serious, and a laugh at the same time, and is one of the best multiplayer games I have ever played.

9. Gran Turismo 4 - the graphics are better, more tracks and more cars. It can only be Gran Turismo, the best driving game of all time. Before I got obssessed with RPGs I wuld mostly play driving games, and this is one of the best. I think this one was trying to be more realistic than fun though and thats why number 7 beats it.

8. Gran Turismo 3 - a huge step up from two, and this is the best driving game of all time. The graphics were immensely good, and there were hundreds of hours of potential racing fun to be had. I never finished it 100% though, after 80 it became impossible.

7. Metal Gear Solid 2. I only started the MGS series this year, when my friend gave me the original after he got it in a trade, he only wanted the FFVII end of it. I enjoyed the first one but didnt think it was one of the best games ever, but I loved MGSII. Its my favourite stealth game of all time. Multiple difficulties, an amazing story, and lots of scope for exploring. Brilliant game. I loved Snake Eater too, but this had much better gameplay, for me at least.

6. Soul Calibur 2 - I was a fan of the PS1s Soul Blade, and had never even heard of Soul Calibur, and the moment I heard about this game being in the same series I had to buy it. I was glad I did, this is probably my favourite fighting game of all time. I have completed the story mode multiple times, doing all the missions and then the extra missions, usually only using one character throgh the whole game. Voldo was my favourite. Shame I dont have a PS3/xbox360, because SC4 would be the first game currently out I would buy

4= Kingdom Hearts - I couldnt decide the 4th spot between this and FFXII. I bought KH as part of a buy one get one free when I got FFX. Best. deal. ever. This game is amazing, it combined Disney and Final Fantasy. I hadnt played much FF then, only X, but I understand all the references now. I hadnt grown out of Disney then either, so it was good.

4=. Final Fantasy XII - the best graphics on the PS2. While this game has an excellent story, Fran, Ashe and Basch aside, the characters are quite bland. It has an excellent innovative battle system which is fun to use, Im not sure if I like this more or less than KH at all.

3. Kingdom Hearts II - the sequel to one of my favourite RPGS. This game is amazing, story-wise. I lvoe the way the Disney worlds are made into 3D. The story is more serious and it is less childish. It is epic in some parts, you have to take down 1000 heartless being a highlight.

2. Final Fantasy X-2 - the first ever final fantasy sequel. Most people dont like it for being too girly. But I dotn care what those people think. The game is amazing, it has my favourite battle system of all time, and the story is good. My favourite character is in it, and the dressphere system is great, changing jobs mid-battle is a fantastic idea.

1. Final Fantasy X. Who'da thunk it? Everyone who knows anything about me knows that this is my all time favourite game. I have spent approximately 450 hours on the game, and completed it five times. I beat Penance with max stats 2 of those times. I love everything, the battle system, the voice acting, the graphics, the characters, the story, the aeons, everything. The game has two of my favourite characters of all time, Auron and most of all Yuna.

These are my fAVE ps2 games. Ones that missed the list are Ratchet and clank 3, Burnout revenge MGS3, PRO evo soccer 3 and ratcet and clank 1

Well, I can't agree with you on all the PS2 games. But for FFX-2, the only thing good that came out of that game,IMO, was Paine. How I love them red eyes!

"Well, I can't agree with you on all the PS2 games"
I agree to I can't believe you like that half-ass game.

Nice list dude except that I don't like FFX-2 and I think you know the reason!!
Posted Sep 2, 2008 3:37 am PT
Great list. I played a demo for FFX-2 and I really liked it!!
Posted Sep 2, 2008 3:41 am PT
FF X is also my fav game but i can't spend 450 hours leveling up and stuff and beat Penance. i don't have patience but that fact that you did is cool.

I never would have guessed the first 2 >_>

Your top 5 out of 10 rocks man. I'm also a fan of FF X-2. Really people, why don't you like the game
Posted Sep 2, 2008 6:33 am PT
Fran, Ashe, and Basch aside? What about Balthier?!?!
Anyways, good list. I've played them all. I think KH1 is better than KH2 though. The face that everything is so new and interesting in the first one. And the story is better. I didn't mind the dressphere system, but I NEVER changed dresspheres in the middle of battle.

I meant to divide my comments about KH and FFX-2. Sorry. lol
Posted Sep 2, 2008 6:53 am PT
great list! I played most of them except for metal gear and gran turismo and timesplitters 2

I'm glad you liked FFX-2, many ppl seem to not like it I don't know why, I liked it a lot, it was great

Woo Kingdom Hearts!
I wanted to play KH2 the other day, but after searching for my PS2 (which took me an hour to find) I couldn't find either KH game. I searched everywhere. I am pretty sad about that

mareinfinitus: i dont like balthier, he annoys me

Decent list. MGS2,FFX and GT3 would top most of the gamers PS2 lists. I am surprised to not find a single God of War,GTA game in the list. Perhaps you may not have played them. I dunno.

Final Fantasy X-2 was the only Final Fantasy game I ever played.
Posted Sep 2, 2008 10:18 am PT
Lol, I can't say I agree with your list there, but we all like different things!
Posted Sep 2, 2008 10:59 am PT
I thought that FFX-2 was too girly Overall a good list
Posted Sep 2, 2008 11:40 am PT
Good choices with MGS2 and FFXII.
Posted Sep 2, 2008 4:14 pm PT

Awesome! You've got some of my favorite games on your list. I love the Kingdom Hearts series and Final Fantasy X and X-2. I love them so much. o_o lol I wish they could make a X-3, but I heard they canceled all plans for it. Oh well. Still awesome games.

lightwarrior179: i hate GTA I have played 2,3,vice city, san andreas and GTAIV for about an hour each and they all suck. I havent played God of war
Posted Sep 3, 2008 2:45 am PT
Soul Calibur II is awesome, one of my favorite fighting games
Posted Sep 3, 2008 9:03 am PT
I knew it! Your #1 will be FFX.
Posted Sep 3, 2008 10:14 pm PT
I like ur list- not sure on x-2 again.. but.. each for their own.
I think star wars battlefront 2 or GTA san andreas deserves a spot up there if you where to play them xD
