10 Years of the PS2: The System’s Most Underappreciated Games

Light a candle and make a wish: the PS2’s officially 10 years old. Though North America and the rest of the world would get it a bit later, the Playstation 2 debuted to much fanfare in Japan on March 5th in the year 2000. Everybody knows the hits of the Playstation Decade­–Grand Theft Auto, Final Fantasy X, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty–but let’s take a look back at some underappreciated games that landed on Sony’s iconic system.

    Is there a reason that Shadow of the Colossus isn’t on this list? Easily the best ever game on PS2 and certainly under-appreciated.

    I felt like, coming after Ico, SOTC actually got the love when it came out. I agree that it’s amazing. Wrote a bit about it here

    Dude, no love for Rygar? Addictive action and slick production values. Every time I bring that one up no one knows what i’m talking about.

    I agree about SOTC also I feel that Dark Cloud/Dark Cloud 2 should be on the list.
