View Full Version : Recommend a good FPS for PS2

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a good first-person-shooter for the PlayStation 2 console (it's the only console I have currently (or plan to have in the near future), so xbox or gamecube, or newer gen console games are no help to me).
I've tried the Medal of Honor games, and enjoyed the single player campaigns, but found the splitscreen multi-player lacking. Same goes for Goldeneye: Rogue Agent. Although the latter is currently my favorite FPS on PS2, I find it wanting in several key areas.
For reference, my number one favorite fps game that I've played on a console is Perfect Dark on the N64, and to a slightly lesser extent, the original Goldeneye (it was king in its time, and had superior single player campaigns, but Perfect Dark surpassed it in multi, IMO) Is there any game out there with comparable features to those older games? In particular, I miss the bots in multi, and the ability to play the campaign and/or challenge missions in splitscreen multiplayer.

Any recommendations?

Maybe... I really don't know any FPS games for PS2, I got one for X-mas, haven't opened it yet, check out Splinter Cell.

This might be as good a place as any to start. (http://www.gamespot.com/games.html?type=games&category=First-Person+Shooters&platform=7&mode=all&sort=score&dlx_type=all&sortdir=asc&sortdir=asc)

Half-Life one has great singleplayer. I don't know if it has any multi for the PS2, I'm only experianced with the PC.

Why not Half Life 2?

Why not Half Life 2?

I didn't see it in the list of PS2 games. But then again I only looked at the top of the list.

Half-Life 2 owns as well.

Call of Duty 3. (THIS OWNS MEDAL OF HONOR)
Call of Duty 2: Big Red One
SOCOM (Not really FPS though)
If all else fails, try the Xbox360. :p

All good FPS games suck in PS2. Sorry.
