Great Playlist, I would've put games like Chaos Legion, Nanobreaker and Rygar into a list like this, still great job 👍

[@spahr001]

Actually been playing Rygar. Great game that seemed to have received the attention it deserved upon release but has disappeared from peoples consciousness over time.

[@brooklynbred1460]

Just downloaded rygar

[@GrumpyCat97]

Chaos Legion is a button smasher, so nah

[@Elhombre36]

By this point I was convinced I was the only person on the planet who ever knew of Chaos Legión and Rygar 😂😂

[@TeeMac1987]

Great video! Fatal frame series is super underrated., I never see them on no videos 😢

[@GlairGullwing]

Great list, and I mean it! (re)discovered old games that I never got to play as a kid

[@DarkSideCaster]

Love this list. Helped me develop a nice wishlist on some of these gems I’ve either never played or finish.

[@EsmeAmelia]

I love how your obviously AI-generated script told us what year every game was released TWICE. It was so nice of your AI-generator to make sure we don't get lost.

[@ryandavid1277]

Lmfao beat me to it

[@satanamogila9251]

It's not AI

[@Lanporto]

its SO IMPORTANT to know what year the game is from! we must heard which year its from, otherwise is unplayable. atleast was a good list, with some NOT underrated games lol... but ok..

[@kingapri8794]

Very good bro. Be on your toes!

[@Vagabundox333]

Hater , at least he make a good video it not that easy even with an Ai .

[@brooklynboiprod]

I'm happy you chose Rez, Killer 7, Dirge of Cerberus and a couple of others that I've had

[@EsmeAmelia]

The person didn't "choose" anything. It's an AI-generated video.

[@Re-PhantomZero]

​@@EsmeAmelia wow then Ai has a good taste, now i love Ai even more than i already did.

[@upi6132]

I see in list "god hand" - and click like ❤

[@Dronedudevideo]

As an Xbox fan i always got bullied and people said: buy the system with great games so i got a PS2....Man PS2 era is so good. Why did Sony never pushed for backwardscompatability some of these games would do so well even now 2024

[@wolfshield2499]

GOD HANDDDDDD!!!!!!!!! THE JOYSTICK CRUSHER, BUT I LOVEEEEEED THIS GAME 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@sesshonuyasha]

YEAH ! That was my 1st hard as nails game that humbled the crap outta me

[@therealmaskedheel]

...how is Shadow of Colossus underrated? It's on a lot of Best PS2 Games of All Time lists.

[@Silvertongue8]

Exactly what I was thinking, Okami also, not exactly underrated

[@simiuciacia]

@@Silvertongue8 sadly it had poor selling numbers

[@Silvertongue8]

@@simiuciacia yes I completely agree,

[@carlospandette8001]

Not to mention a remake of the game on PS4 and a very dedicated fanbase like Nomad colossus who is even credited in the PS4 remake, not underrated at all.

[@carlospandette8001]

@@simiuciacia Doesn't make it underrated.

[@blaykerietman6965]

such a fantastic list you made, these all look insane, some i definetly will play now

[@MebbIraq]

Shinobido way of the ninja. Best ninja game on the ps2💯

[@billcox8870]

I'm watching this to see if you're going to list, Wizardry tale of the Forsaken land. That is a beautiful RPG on the PS2. I still have that in my collection and a functioning PS2

[@RemoWilliams1227]

You should get a free mcboot memory card that takes an SD card and load games on it so if your laser fails. My stupid CD laser went out so I ripped my games and transferred to the SD card (little more complex than that but doable as long as you have a pc) and boom back in bidness, plus faster loading.

[@billcox8870]

@@RemoWilliams1227 where would I get that? I have never heard of it

[@Massobliteration]

@@billcox8870 Search about OPL on PS2 my friend. You can also load games via ethernet share (SMB) for better loading speeds and compability. Any question you have just ask bro.

[@glenhayman8722]

pretty sure this is an AI created video, but the nostalgia was worth it

[@alanshaw6451]

i picked up on that.

[@redneofox]

Yeah, the "writing" is AI for sure.

[@ThisMyhandlenow]

Tell him to stop using AI and dislike this video. We don't want ai generated videos

[@alegomanYTPs]

how do people know? to me this is a human making a video well

[@trueflood323]

@@alegomanYTPsthat’s so sad you can’t hear and clearly see this is ai. You know they have celebrities talking in ai too..

[@LinkSergilBelmont]

Great video. Really wish Capcom remaster and port God Hand to modern platforms.

[@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253]

Sadly they can't. They won't risk porting a game about an awesome guy who casually shames his enemies and makes fun of the facts they are fat, short or are women. Them no-fun mfs on social media will go crazy. Way more trouble then it's worth for CAPCOM image-wise. Making fun is a big no-no these days, you see. That's like if Rockstar suddenly remastered Bully.

[@destinyrebound9497]

Great video 🔥

[@im__CrazyBoy]

I'm here only for God Hand, what a gem GOAT game 😢

[@gabrielgirardi4993]

That game was so good, very unique style. Definitely my top 3 for ps2

[@nancyhoffman4784]

Interesting list some I already have thanks for sharing the memories😊

[@klutch_fr969]

The bouncer!!!! I’ve been going through ps2 game lists for 3 days now trying to find the name of that game. A friend of mine let me hold his copy in Jr. High and I’ve been trying to play it again ever since!

[@mr.bulldops2459]

godhand is one of the best games of all time nice shout out

[@aurelia555]

I may sound crazy. But there’s this one mystery game I’d play in like 2009-2012 ishh. It come out earlier than the time stated I believe. The game started off as a mystery through a town. Where you could collect coins and other items in the game. You’d have to ease drop in on conventions and then quest for whatever was next. I believe there were like rat like creatures like the ones in Geronimo Stilton the books. I wish I could find it now that my boyfriend and I have a ps5

[@AssassinofHighgarden]

I highly disagree with Shadow of the Colossus and Advent Children being "underrated", but solid list! I'd have included Radiata Stories, which I rarely see anyone talk about

[@GoodfellasX21]

Ive always wanted to see Drakan: The Ancients' Gates on one of these underrated games..instead I see mark of kri witch had a crazy huge ad push and shadow of the colossus that was critically acclaimed and beloved. Maybe I'm the only person to ever play it!

[@GemQuest]

Stay strong, brother. Us Draken enjoyers are out there.

[@Danusko]

I've played Drakan at PC and Ps2, and still dream of a new game or a remake.

[@derekmoore1612]

Drakan the Acient Gates is my all time favorite underrated game... Fantastic

[@someordinaryduck]

I'm here for you brother lol

[@theShinypaladin]

You forget sphinx and the cursed mummy

[@thelastofitskind3034]

Wow so many great games here 👏 🙌

[@BuTTuRzz]

I wanted to point out that while he said Way of the Samurai 2. He actually showed footage from at least 3 different Way of the Samurai games. 1 and 2 are on PS2. 3 and 4 are on PS3. You can pick up ports of 3 and 4 on steam also.

[@JusticeInGaming_JIG]

Lifeline reminds me of Parasite Eve. :)

[@user-qf7vo6id1d]

I really like Okami, I once played it on Wii with no completing the game. And I once again try this on Aether Sx2 ,I failed plenty of times when I was supposed to draw a dragon at tutorial then I gave up but I need try it again

[@Screamlover91]

the best chapter names ever

[@davidczarco]

" The thing" game was so goooood IMO . I've been trying to replay it

Have you ever played Extermination for the PS2? It's very good and it's similar to the thing.

The dog Life game was new to me I’m going to try it out😀

[@TwoGendersOnly]

Yes okami is great if you can get past the hour of text and verbal gibberish at the beginning of the game.

[@agent5758]

marc echos getting up is a real hidden gem

[@hadiferlan3760]

I guess Steambot Chronicles is the most underrated game ever exist because you DIDN'T even put it in your underrated list.

[@graymars1097]

i’m a simple guy. I see a long video with “ps2” in title, I click & subscribe ❤ let’s watch

[@budwilliams5667]

Psychonauts was never underrated if it's considered a cult classic

[@jiraiya0698]

Great video. Thanks

[@EsmeAmelia]

You're praising an AI-generator there.

[@christopherrobinmarriott7218]

Freedom fighters is GREAT! But I believe the MOST underrated ps2 game is " Combat elite: ww2 paratroopers". An isometric third person view shooter. It's one of my favorite games. Ya the targeting system is...difficult to master but once you do it's actually a pretty fun game that takes you the woods/ local farmland to the city, searching for nazi soldoers while traversing dilapted& bombed out buildings having to listen for falling artillery that will turn you into a fine mist if you don't run for cover. Solid game

[@Malamockq]

Thanks for the suggestion, you convinced me to try it out!

[@user-nc8yk6wm6r]

I remember playing the warriors with my little sibling... What a great times.

[@HollowRick]

I played through that with a friend a few years ago they still holds up to this day

[@Jamato-sUn]

Thank you! But some chapter names are incorrect like Ico and Oni.

[@santacatarinagames3191]

[@bradleymcavoy3432]

I would put Shadow of the Colossus as a top tier game, I suppose it is “underrated” but it is in my 15 PS2 games list at Least!

[@Re-PhantomZero]

Nice list, people ate saying you used Ai and that's absolutely fine by me, do another one.

[@makinjica]

Hi , are those game in video presented via Emulator ?

The longer you watch the video the more you can tell its AI

[@acetrigger1337]

There's quite alot of small mistakes and typos in the script, description and timestamps... leading me to believe that this "human" is reading and relying heavily on Ai-Generated content.

[@brandoncalhoon5033]

Kessen 2 still one of my favorites of all time

[@kaiserrino8774]

**Shadow of the Colossus is widely regarded as a masterpiece** and still puts into this list. There is a lot of games on here, which are held in high regards. You haven't really put much thought into this video. This smells like copy & paste and/or AI to me.
