Looking for a PS2's "gems"

I recently got a PS3 back in June and I thought I might get in on PS2 games as well while I'm at it. So I've decided to get or try out PS2 games would be considered "gems". I already got Shadow of the Colossus and Katamari Damacy. I was thinking of getting Ico, but are there any other good games that I should consider checking out?

God of War(s), Metal Gear Solid(s), DragonQuest VIII, SSX(s), Devil May Cry(s), the list goes on and on.joseph_mach

MGS (all), Dragon Quest VIII, FFX and X-2, FFXII, Disgaea 1 and 2, SoTC, Ico, DMC (all), Okami, God of War 1 and 2, and the Jak series. Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.

• Shinobi
• Rez
• Super Robot Taisen Alpha 3: To the End of the Galaxy
• Shadow of Memories
• Twinkle Star Sprites: La Petite Princesse
• Zwei!!
• God Hand
• Dororo
• Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution
• Ryu Ga Gotoku 2

Resident Evil 4

Musashi: Samurai Legend, is a true hidden gem, and only $5 at gamestop.xmitchconnorx

Is Musashi: Samurai Legend really that good of a game. I've been wanting to buy it for my Square Enix collection, but I've hesitated after I purchased Unlimited Saga for $5 and was severly disappointed. I thought the original Brave Fencer Musashi was an above-average hack-n-slash RPG, so I was never sure about Samurai Legend.

I would completely disagree. It's more of a turd. It's got a very crappy story they didn't even try, HORRIBLE voice acting, the designs are boring and weak, Musashi despite being a ninja moves very slow, the combat lacks depth, there are special moves but you really don't need them. I bought it for $8 and regret it. Mediocre at best, I'm not sure why Square released it.

At least with Unlimited Saga there's the beautiful painted graphics.

As for gems -

Maximo, Mark of Kri, Kingdom Hearts (don't get the second one unless you like convoluted anime type stories), Final Fantasy X, Sly Cooper, 007: Everything or Nothing, Shinobi or Nightshade, Urban Reign is a good beat'em up, Dynasty Warriors 3 or 5, Onimusha series, Resident Evil 4, Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance (is better than Champions, X-Men Legends, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance), Prince of Persia series, Devil May Cry (3 if you don't mind heavy button mashing), Viewtiful Joe series, God Hand

MGS 1/2/3 (if u missed 1 get it!), FFX, FFXII, Dragon Quest 8 , SMT: Nocturne , Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance , Champions of Norrath, Disgaea (1or 2), ICO, DMC 3 (2 isn't good , 1 is very short) Okami , God of War 1/2, and the Jak 1/2/3, Ratchet and Clank all of them , Viewtiful Joe (something else!!) , Prince of Persia 2/3 and Resident Evil 4 and Sly Cooper 2 .
