    The thing is, despite many feelings that Sony has totally commercialised gaming and destroyed the creativity in game development, judging by these lists and the many similar posts that have gone before, it seems the PS2 is possibly the best games machine that has ever been made.

    I think it's scarier to look at the release list from Sony 1st party developers. Almost every game out of Sony has been a little leftfield and original even if many haven't been entirely successful. With Eyetoy, Ico, SotC etc. they come out with some very original stuff that you would normally expect from nintendo.

    I prefer the SNES and MD, the pinnacle of 2D gaming. GBA was rather excellent and the DS is heading for classic status.

    3. Killzone - Another overlooked FPS.

    I don't believe that Killzone was "overlooked" as such, so hyped as the PS2's Halo killer as it was for so long... more like a decent enough FPS that failed to live up to the hype.

    There are much better FPS's on PS2 (IMHO).

    yea, i thought there was no good serious fps on the console, as in timesplitters 3 would be the best actuall fps on the console imo but its cartoony and stuff so.

    Heh probably would have been amongst my favourites if it wasn't for some of the old fashioned survival horror conventions. Must pull it out and give it another go one of these days.

    Gave it a go a while ago and despite having buckets of charm and great localisation I just found it a little too tough. I hadn't a clue what was happening most of the time. Never even managed to get the 3rd soul.

    It's tough alright and I jammed my way through 1 of the souls but it's so rewarding when you get it right :)
