Soul reaver 2 lives rent free in my head since the day I saw my dad play it when the game came out.

Mind-blowing that this ran on PS2 hardware. Still some of the most fluid and natural animations ever.
Excellent choice.
Truly breathtaking.
Soul Calibur III.
Awesome game, loved create a soul.
It's a tie between which of the two I've played more MGS2+Substance or Monster Hunter.
I wish I could say MGS3, but I know I've played a lot more of MGS2 Substance - even the stupid little mini games lol.
Lot's of awesome games on the ps2.
Would say: MGS 3, RE4, ZOE2, FFX, AC0, FM4.
Front Mission is so good, criminally underrated franchise Square did dirty.
Sonic Mega Collection+ because I think it might be the last time Sega released an unaltered port of Sonic 3 with the original music. That soundtrack slaps so hard!
I really can't pick just one, but the whole LoK series was fantastic, I also loved DMC3, MGS2 and MGS3, Shadow of the Colossus... I could go on

PS2 was peak and there are so many beautiful choices.
But, I'll be honest, it's easily Grand Theft Auto Vice City.

You lift weights? I lift joints!
Vice City was peak GTA experience. Just driving around wrecking shit all set to a killer radio soundtrack.
Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando
Sheesh there's just way too many to narrow it down to my "favorite" so I'll try to give two interesting answers rather than just listing all the ones I enjoyed most.
Way of the Samurai is the PS2 game I'd like to see remade most out of all the games that haven't been remade already. It was jank but the combat had a lot of hidden depth, and the story could be changed by so many small compounding choices. It has insane replay value. Also the soundtrack is fucking great. Same composer as Tenchu and it shows. I've been whistling "Brutal Heart" and Tamagawa's theme to myself for years.
The PS2 version of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed I think is baffling better than its PS3 counterpart you're meant to like more. It has a lot more content than you'd expect for an inferior version made for a dying console, they absolutely did not phone it in. The PS3 version I think has a more cohesive story with a lot more fluff trimmed though and it feels more like an original modern Star Wars entry whereas the PS2 version feels like its firmly stuck in the discarded extended universe where all the non-canon stories die
