1. KillZone
2. Medal of Honor: Frontline

Killzone, one of the best games of all time? You haven't been playing many video games have you?
Here are some simple reasons why this should have never gotten out of Beta testing before some big changes happened (under the guise that the game is, as you claim, "nearly flawless"):
1) Helgeist coming down the stairs, passes me, and then turns around to shoot
2) Helgeist coming down the stairs, falls through them (I'm not kidding)
3) When a model dies, it does so in the most bizarre fashion possible
4) I launch a grenade from my assault rifle into a group of Helgeist, they all proceed to fall down, towards the place where the grenade hit, rather then being repelled by it
5) One of my teammates is being shot in the back, he proceeds to ignore it for another 10 seconds before returning fire
6) Helgeist comes up to me, stands for 30 seconds facing me about ten feet away, does not return fire
7) Helgeist repeats "Pinned down!" three times in a row behind cover, even when no one is firing at him/it
8) When NPC characters move they look like they were animated during the first season of South Park
All of these points I noticed in my first half hour of playing it. Yes, this is being nitpicky, but these game makers are supposed to be professionals. This game should have taken a bit longer.
Now don't get me wrong, this game really does look amazing. I think it is one of the best looking games I've seen. But it's not very good otherwise. It's a shame, really, it could have been something special.

Well it is PS2 we're talking about here. If you want natch-accurate ragdoll models go somewhere else where the processing power accomodates it.
Indeed there are AI quibbles abound, but look beyond this, and it is seriously immersive, even with said faults.-

hey Jm, how are the Brothers in Arms games? never played them?
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity - snatch.
Killzone has far too many bugs, repetitive gameplay, and terrible AI to be "The best FPS for PS2" personally, this doesn't touch the original Red Faction or even Project Snowblind.
"Teh" is simple "teh" best typo ever.
Project snowblind was crap, and wway too short. Red faction was cool but doesn't have the graphics that Killzone has. Even with it's bug I like the game
shareGraphics don't mean squat you dweeb.
BUY MY MUFFINS YOU STUPID *beep* http://imdb.com/title/tt0384537/board/thread/56435861
1. Medal Of Honor: frontline
2. Killzone (besides teh glitches sweet battlefield mode)
3. Call Of Duty 2: Big Red One (call of duty 3 is gonna kick a$$)
4. Call Of Duty 1
5. cant make up my mind I bought Brothers In Arms 2 but the graphics sucked
what is Red Faction about?
'Black' is the best FPS on the PS2. Granted it's short but you keep coming back to it. (it would have been nice to have a multiplayer or online ability too)
I love Red Faction too.
POSSIBLE SPOILER WARNING!
I agree that Killzone is the best FPS on the PS2. I use to own both a PS2 and Killzone and I thought it was a great game. I own an XBOX 360 now and I have played many games over the past decade and a half on many different consoles, most of the games I've played are FPS's and I still think it's the best FPS out of all of them I've played. Infact, Killzone is my favorite game to date. I admit that there are a lot of bugs in it though. The AI can be pretty stupid at times, sometimes when you died your body would dance around on the ground, sometimes in the campaign mode I noticed that when you looked at an ally, his face would change from being detailed to not detailed, some graphical glitches here and there too. But overall Killzone has what I want most out of a FPS.
It has realism, although it takes place in the not to distant future, they made it feel and look like a realistic future. It has sweet realistic weapons that are all projectile based, no lasers or plasma weapons(I hate plasma and laser weapons). It has superb animations, when you reload, vault over low objects, climb and climb down ladders, sprint and melee, it looks absolutely great and realistic. It has great controls and options, I love how you can program any action to any button, I also love how you can choose if the crouch is toggle or hold. Great multiplayer and great character models for enemies and allies. It has great audio, from the orchestrated music to the gritty noises of gun fire and everthing inbetween. The graphics aren't the best by a long shot, but they do something other games like Killzone with near perfect graphics don't accomplish, they accomplished giving the game a gritty real war atmosphere.
Something I didn't like about Killzone was how the story started off great but through-out the game it went down hill. It started off that you were a grunt Captain fighting against the Helghast that has invaded your colony planet. Then the story got epic, suddenly the fate of the entire colony rested solely on your shoulders. I didn't like that at all. I preferred playing as a common soldier, not an epic hero. This is just my opinion. My reasons as to why I love Killzone. I no longer own it or own a PS2 because I wanted a variety of good games that the XBOX/XBOX 360 have, not just one great game(even if it is my favorite game).
Yeah...
Black it is actually!
Alpha, baby...
*beep**N' ALPHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Black it is actually!"
man i was hoping someone would say that
but in their defence they posted about a year before black was released
That's when you know you've found somebody really special. When you can just shut the *beep* up for a minute and comfortably share silence- Mia Wallace
other than Black, my memory's become a bit blurred for PS2 FPS knowledge. i'm sure there was one really standout case i just can't remember.
