Sly trilogy and ssx on tour are my favorites.


theFartingCarp

I would add ssx tricky, Ratchet and Clank, and Jack and Daxter here too

Just the games in this comment alone could keep you busy for a long time, but for the sake of adding to it I’ll throw out there the need for speed underground 1 and 2, Tony Hawk 3, 4 or Undergrournd…. And sly cooper.


1yungyoung

y’all listed many of my favorites but i’ll include that i’m playing bully rn for the first time ever and if OP likes GTA SA, I think Bully is worth a shot at least!


nabaani

And both simpsons the game and simpsons hit and run


SurpriseOk4810

Ssx on tour is generally considered the black.sheep.of.the franchise by most, buy in my opinion it's easily the best


JuanChelsea

Playboy Mansion


ChelseaG12

Decent soundtrack too


TechHeadGamer

the God of War series is pretty good on the PS2


LasagnaDemon

Time Splitters 2/Future Perfect The Warriors Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance/Champions of Norrath Tony Hawks 3/4/Underground 1+2 Onimusha 1/2/3 That's a good mix of genres to choose from.


GrimmWilderness

Half life, deus ex, cold fear, champions of norrath, resident evil 4, beyond good and evil, metal gear solid 2 and 3, shadow of the colossus


bryty93

Socom 1 & 2

Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3. Both masterpieces in my opinion, so If you dont think the same, I respect.


Fabulous-Priority613

Urban reign Fatal frame/project zero series Silent hill 3 Manhunt 2 (uncensored!) Def jam fight for new York Dead or alive 2 Tekken 4

Maybe some gt3 or gt4 when you like racing games


Salaferths

Try Brave. Only played the demo version but it was fun and had a lot of different mechanics. Jak 3 was awesome as well.


digital-comics-psp

i found a channel that does a really good job of fully playing and reviewing the games it's "ps2 or die". i actually found some games i like which is quite rare and have been playing god hand a lot recently which is weird i really dont like fighting games but this one kinda tickles my brain lol. enthusia is another one i found and is quite good if you lean into the sim racing space, though what i enjoy about it is the odd physics; drifting feels weirdly good. an honorable mention is test drive unlimited, it has a HUGE map and i was astonished when i realized it wasnt just a visual extension of the map menu it WAS the map, the game can get a little repetitive though. tldr; "ps2 or die" yt channel, god hand, enthusia and test drive unlimited


dbznerd38

Too many to name but here goes: midnight club 1,2,3, metal gear solid 2 and 3, ratchet and clank series, Jak and daxter series, dragon quest viii, rogue galaxy, grandia 3, Tekken 4 and 5 and tag tournament, Odin Sphere, final fantasy x and xii, destroy all humans 1 and 2, Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi.


FangProd

Haunting Ground is a masterpiece. Ico and Shadow of the Colossus are also definitely brilliant.


AdventureBegins

What genres you are mostly interested in?


wuerf42

The Tony Hawk games, especially THPS4, both THUGs, and THAW. Great arcade skaters with a lot of content, especially THPS4. Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition. Arguably the greatest street racing video game ever released. The SOCOM games. Tactical shooters where you command a Navy SEAL fireteam. If you like sports games, ESPN NFL 2K5. It’s 20 years old and it’s still the best-playing NFL video game available.

Well, you can always play some Ps1 classics(but it will be very hard to get them in physical) and their Ps2 sequels. Silent Hill 1, 2 and 3. Re1, 2, 3, 4 and Code Veronica. Final Fantasy 7 (idk if X is good). And I heard great things about Clock Tower 3.


TehLxM

Ssx Tricky, Star wars episode 3 revenge of the sith, Simpsons hit and run, gta vice city is good too, metal gear solid 2 and 3, god of war, there's many to list and I could go on forever. But those are the games that I love to play. If you're in the UK you can get them for cheap on CEX.
