Any favorite PS2 hidden gems?

[iheartbadmemes]

My favorites are, in no particular order,

The Jak and Daxter franchise
Need for Speed: Most Wanted
Dragonball Z: Budokai 3
WWE: Smackdown vs RAW 2007

Those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm looking for good games to emulate, and particularly ones that aren't suggested on Google.

If you have any favorites, however, still include them.

Mark of Kri is good, it was the first game I played that had a combat system similar to the new Batman games. You sweep the right analog stick around to assign a button to each enemy and you formulate your combos from there. I would call it a fantasy/adventure game, you’re like a Polynesian barbarian type dude that kills bandits. Cool story, cool art style, cool arena mode for when you just wanna hack people into pieces with a battle axe. The sequel is good but kinda glitchy and much longer(to its detriment IMO).

ATV Off-road Fury series was pretty fun, I’m not huge into racing games. You can use your bike/atv as a weapon, I always used to do wheelies into the back of people’s heads to knock them off their shit 😂

 

[BrazenNightmare]

Parasite Eve

 

[Amalgamation]

Samurai Warriors 2

Ace Combat 4

GTA San Andreas

Flatout

Can't remember what all was on the PS2 but Crash Bandicoot deserves to be named. Could have that mixed up with Gamecube, fuck if I know.

Really liked - Star Ocean : Till the End of Time.

 

[NoConvexity]

Jak and Dexter was dope. Such a good feeling to that game.

I liked Sly Cooper, ratchet and clank, conflict desert storm, Star wars battlefront, the medal of Honor series
Maybe not so hidden tho
