While many would’ve seen the PS2 as being dead and buried by now with Sony’s support fully backing the PS3, this year proved it to not be the case. With big titles like God of War 2 hitting the system, Sony’s oldie-but-goodie still has some life in it yet.PlayStation 2 Game Of The Year 2007 FinalistsGod of War II
This is the perfect example of what serious teamwork can achieve. It’s not just one element that turned the game into a masterpiece, it’s every element – the controls (perfection), world design (unbelievably creative), combat (exciting and challenging), and enemy selection (unreal) are just a few of the reasons why this is PS2’s best first-party release. GrimGrimoire
Classic RTS formula (armies of minions fighting other armies), a unique and inventive – and really fun – side-scrolling perspective, and a stellar collection of ghosts, monsters, and other dark creatures come together for one of the most original strategy games released in the past 10 years. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock
Guitar Hero III delivers in almost every way imaginable. The best song selection yet combined with unparalleled playability and a challenge for anyone from beginner to master makes this PS2’s definitive music game. A must-have for anyone who plays video games to have fun. Odin Sphere

But these developers, through undetectable mind tricks or merely a higher level of game development than most studios will ever achieve, have created a masterpiece that makes every action – every repeated action – an unparalleled joy to execute. Rogue Galaxy
Rogue Galaxy is a don’t-miss adventure. The combat alone is so engrossing and rewarding that it won’t be long before you realize that this is a game you just have to finish. You’ll love every part of it – the action-filled combat, the dream-driven plot, and every polygon of the gorgeous graphics. It’s not just one element that’ll consume you – it’s the entire package. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3
If you like the unknown, the uncharted – the places that few developers are willing to visit – Persona 3 is another chance to explore these things. The game’s backbone is its story is as outrageous as possible without being blatant or gratuitous. The story is also very entertaining and features a solid soundtrack, top-notch voice acting, and great anime sequences. And the PlayStation 2 Winner is...
