Some sections of Devil May Cry are jawdropping with the scenery and eerie soundtrack. A game which looks good (but not as stunning as DMC) is Grand Theft Auto 3 - great playability and one of my best games of all time. I just love going upto people in the street and smashing them to a pulp with a baseball bat. I enjoy playing GTA3 quite a bit as well.
Also try Tony Hawks 3. Looks good - compare it to the Dreamcast version of TH2 which is the next best thing and you'll see that the PS2 is the king of the consoles.
If you REALLY want to see what the PS2 can do though you'll have to wait until February and get Metal Gear Solid 2 which looks the dogs b******s.

i treated myself to a PS2 this year, and for £260 i got 3 games 2 off a list they had and one off the shelve i picked Zone OF The Enders, Red Faction and Devil May Cry, and let me say DMC is abosolutly amazing, i've always liked capcoms games but this is the finest they've done to date.
Try Time Crisis 2 (needs a light gun but the old G-Con 45 works so you don't have to buy a new one) It plays exactly like the arcade version. Avoid Pro-Evolution Soccer and GTA3 as the gameplay is good but the graphics are crap. James Bond: Agent under Fire looks quite promising although I have only just started it.
Try Grand Turismo - the graphics are amazing although the gameplay can get a bit limited after a while.
Alternatively, SSX Tricky is the best snowboarding game around.
Pro Evoultion Soccer
Gran Turismo 3
Grand Theft Auto 3
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3
Devil May Cry
Jak and Daxter
Metal Gear Solid 2 pre order on www.play247.com for £34.99 inc delivery.
Yeah Metal Gear Solid 2 is the nutz. I've only played the demo which came with Zone Of Enders and my mate was blown away.
Could be best game ever.
I really enjoyed GTA3 the sheer size is a bonus and although I've only just finished the story mode I've only completed 35% of the game. Plenty of mini-missions to do.
Graphics wise I have to agree on Devil May Cry...so stylish.
My fave games tho are:
NBA Street
Resident Evil Code Veronica
Pro Evolution Soccer
Grand Theft Auto 3
and Silent Hill 2...creepiest and most atmospheric game on the system.
devil may cry graphics wise.gta 3 for sheer fun.the big test is gonna be metal gear 2.shame its been delayed for two weeks though.
check out state of emergency next friday,its basically gta 3 but without the driving.
