It also has a pretty large character roster which includes veterans like Sophitia and Nightmare, as well as the bizarre addition of Heihachi Mishima from Tekken. The fourth installment in the long-storied Dynasty Warriors franchise featured amazing graphics and expanded gameplay features that made it into one of the most well-received by fans worldwide.

Easily one of the finest literary pieces originating in China, which makes it the perfect game to play with your friends from Book Club. It serves as a prequel to all other Ace Combat games. It offers an engaging story told through radio chatter and on-screen action to keep you hooked.
The gameplay, while not too different from previous games, is incredibly polished and fluid as well. Overall the game is a pleasure to play.
Back in the PS2 era this game was more often than not the only thing my geeky friends and I ever wanted to play.

Before the veritable disaster that were the last couple of entries in the franchise after it was acquired by EA, Star Wars Battlefront II was the measuring stick for large-scale shooters.

Spike, Natalie, Casi, Jake and the Professor? Achieving that full ROCK factor was always a challenge, and although I can play most of these songs in real life, my fingers always fell over each other trying to get a high score! Rocking out to some of the greatest rock anthems of our time while wielding a guitar-shaped controller is one of the best feelings of all time.
Play as Slash or Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine fame once unlocked, or take your chosen character all the way to the top by completing challenges and proving your mettle through over 70 different songs. Come for the music, stay for the multiplayer co-op mode and epic guitar battles. Tales of Symphonia takes the 28th spot in this list of the best PS2 games of all time!

Every move hangs in the balance, with one good deed in this world having a terrible effect on a parallel world. The game itself is open world brilliance. Kicking off the list with WWE Smackdown! Here Comes The Pain is a pretty good way to start. Considered by myself and many others to be the best wrestling game of all time, this title is a must have for every PS2 fan.
I used to run back from walking the dog every Saturday so that I could watch Stone Cold Steve Austin kicking the sh… I mean… wrestling against the likes of Kane and the Undertaker. It also brought new features too such as a better grappling system and new modes like the Elimination Chamber. The game sold well over , copies during its lifetime in the UK alone, receiving platinum status. Bully takes the 26th spot in this list of the best PS2 games of time. This open world GTA-style free-for-all is a cracking title and another that needs to be in your collection.
The jury was definitely out at to whether punters would like Bully. Players control James Hopkins, known through the game as Jimmy. He goes about this by beating people up, completing missions, and rising to the top of the school popularity system.
Sounds a bit like bullying with missions to me, but who am I to judge? Players move around this massive game on bikes, go-karts, and skateboards while working their way to the top of the Bullworth social ladder.
And what better world to explore than the realm of Middle Earth in a brand new adventure that compliments the books! Well, gamers take warriors from the main factions of Middle Earth in a bid to deal with the mess that the main company of the Fellowship leave behind. If you want to get real evil, then you can side with Sauron and fight to see Middle Earth burn to cinders. Persona 4 is the fifth title in the Persona series, despite the confusing 4 on the front cover. Like Bully, it follows a year in the life of a high-school student, though murder and mystery are the main features this time.
Set in a sleepy-old-town with nothing going on, our city-boy main character must discover why dead bodies are appearing through the town while delving into the mysterious TV world. Corpses on rooftops, rumours of soulmates emerging from television sets, and shadow monsters that can only be fought by entering your screen. One of the key elements of Persona 4 is the weather forecast system. The main character and the members of your RPG party all wield Personas.
These are like a cross between Pokemon and Patronuses, mythical creatures that protect their owners and battle for them in the field as they struggle through life. The whole game is classic RPG action at its best with more upgrading and collectable action than you can shake a stick at. We highly recommend trying this game out even if just for creating new Personas in the velvet room. With four modes of play including Freeplay and World Circuit, Tricky provides maximum thrills with the added player hostility that makes these games so interesting.
SSX games allow players to hit each other in order to knock characters off course. As far as gameplay is concerned, the courses and characters all look amazing.
Just check out those mountains in the picture above! Garibaldi and Alaska serve as two new courses, with the other tracks providing altered versions from the original SSX game.
Like most racing games, SSX Tricky has a boost bar that players must fill. Characters pull off insane tricks called Uber Moves once the boost bar is full. Land Uber Moves successfully and reap the rewards of infinite boost, allowing gamers to zip past opponents like a noss-fuelled toboggan. Punch and nose grab the move, not a real nose your way to glory in this epic EA sports title. Could the cover for Dark Cloud make it look any more like a Zelda game?
Dark Cloud is another RPG title in our list of the best PS2 games, providing gamers with dungeons, monsters, and collectible hunting a-plenty. I love the tense battles in this game and the treasure hunting features, all of which make me want to give up my job and become an adventurer. Like Windbound although Dark Cloud did it first , players need to watch a thirst meter as well as a health meter. Get some fluids in you, quickly!
Toan hacks and slashes his way through the game world collecting orbs to rebuild nature. Ransacking dungeons and battling enemies twice his size are daily occurrences, but he seems to enjoy getting stuck in. The game has some RPG battle elements and boasts a weapon upgrading system.
GameCube gamers finally had the chance to use Link in epic battles, and Xbox users held the power of Spawn in their hands. Players battle a series of characters in the story mode, unlocking new weapons and costumes as they go. Each character has a Soul Edge weapon that causes devastating damage but also drains health at the same time.
Nightmare and Astaroth are the two best characters for bludgeoning everything in sight. If you still have friends to play couch co-op with, then SoulCalibur II is an amazing title to kick back with on a Saturday afternoon while tucking into a pizza.
Yes, up next is the legendary Guitar Hero. It was the very first title in an epic series that saw gamers around the globe rocking out to their favourite tracks. Using the plucking button and pressing the coloured buttons in the right time and order will make you feel like a rock god right from the word go. You can even work a whammy bar for some extra live gig feels.
This game was amazing and great fun to play with your friends, especially when the different guitar styles started coming out.
Shiranui certainly has a less stressful time than Link without Midna around, and the Sume-e ink artwork in this game is still as breathtaking today as it was back in Well, the game sees you playing as a Japanese sun goddess named Amaterasu.
She can transform into a legendary white wolf by the name of Shiranui and use magical abilities to complete her quest. The gameplay is in fact modelled on the Legend of Zelda, but not a direct copy like Windbound. The director, Hideki Kamiya, cited the series as one of his favourites.
Amaterasu can use her magic to attack enemies that you encounter, and also to bring colour back into the world of Nippon by using the Celestial Brush. Just look at that artwork! Another open world game, Jak 3 brings all of the features that gamers love about the dynamic duo to a brand new adventure brimming with crazy weapons and exciting items.
Missions make up the majority of this game, with specific challenges requiring completion in order to progress. New characters appear for gamers to interact with as they move around the unique Jak and Daxter universe. If you have followed the series or played the original Devil May Cry game, then this third instalment is set before the events of the first game. You follow Dante, but a younger version of the character that many of you will know and love. The story follows the turbulent relationship he has with his brother, Virgil, and is jam-packed full of demon slashing goodness to keep you occupied for hours on end.
It also used some pre-rendered Full Motion Video clips, but not the corny kind that you might find in the best Sega CD games! Thank goodness for those mid-level checkpoints in the Special Edition! Konami sure knows how to make great survival horror games, and this is one of the weirdest and best around. B Retro Dodo will not be held responsible for any pant wetting experienced while playing this game. Silent Hill is psychological horror at its best.

Evil virus comdems all of the citizens of Racoon City to wander around as ugly undead cronies. Big monsters, abandoned buildings, and with a freak-out factor of The gameplay revolves less around survival horror elements as it did in the previous games and more about action-filled gunfights and mass-zombie-culling.
The villagers in this game can work together to try to eat you alive. They are capable of wielding weapons and throwing projectiles too, so you better keep your wits about you. In a new development for the series, you can shoot different body parts with different results too.
Resident Evil 4 was originally meant to be a GameCube release only, but has since gone on to sell million copies over multiple platforms! Few racing games can like up to the legendary Gran Turismo series. With insane backdrops, realistic gameplay, and amazing cars, Gran Turismo 4 remains one of the best racing games ever made to this day and certainly influenced many titles that came after it.
That would totally have made me a better driver in real life too! I love racing games that have a large number of cars to choose from.
