I love the NES for bringing consoles back after the crash and mostly for its first-party & Capcom titles. I love the SNES for its library, which was the largest & most diverse of its time. I love the Dreamcast for its uniqueness, but I've thought about it a lot lately and I still think the PS2 was the best of them all.
These are the games I owned and enjoyed on my PS2. We will probably never see a console and game library as good again.

This port from the Dreamcast was a great sequel/remake of the unique Genesis game and was an excellent 3D interpretation. If you are one of those people who hate swimming in games, stay far away from this one.
Completely stupid vampire light-gun fun!
This was basisically Sony's attempt to have a Zelda game on their console, but hey, why not throw in a city-building sim while you're at it?
Beautiful, abstract musical rail shooter. Like a cross between Panzer Dragoon, Tron and a Harmonix game.
This one's on my Obscure Classics list and it's a a weird one where you control a little girl with a posessed scarf that can reach out and pinch things and stretch them. One of the few releases on the PS2 by the great Treasure.
Another reworking of the Zelda formula, but this time into an incredibly intimate puzzles & platforms escort mission in a giant, empty castle. A true classic with incredible atmosphere.
In some ways this game feels like a first attempt ar DMC with its locked camera hack-n-slash gameplay.
One of the best plane combat sims I have ever played and the first one I ever saw that tried to tell a story. I burned through a lot of hours out of replaying the single player missions and had a lot of fun in the dogfight modes playing with friends.
Koei takes the same Romance of the 3 Kingdoms & Dynasty Warriors characters and puts them in a great real-time war strategy game with some interesting fantasy elements including magic attacks.
