- [QUOTE="nini200"]The King Of Fighters 2002: Ultimate Match[/QUOTE] Yep can't go wrong with a bit of KOF, although Hokuto No Ken and Sengoku Basara are very good.

I also think hokuto no ken is a great game. But i think the best one in the ps2 is Street Fighter Alpha III, featured in the alpha anthology.

[/QUOTE] I loved that compilation very nice although I hear the Japanese version is better. Also just another suggestion but what about World Heroes Gorgeous?- Please wait. Quick reply will be available shortly.

well... im not really a world heroes fan, but i quite liked the first games back in the 90s. I dont know the "gorgeous" one yet, maybe ill try it
Recently i played Capcom fighting evolution, and contrary to the critics, i found it very nice, cause it has the trademark gameplay of the capcom games, and very good graphics. imo, its another exeple of great 2d fighter for the ps2.

Capcom vs SNK2
Marvel vs Capcom 2
Tekken Tag Tournament
Tekken 5
Soul Calibur 3
Samurai Shodown Anthology
Darkstalkers Collection

Capcom vs SNK 2, and the SF Anniversary collection (for SF Alpha 3 and SF3:TS) for me. KoF 2002 was another favorite of mine as well.
Was Garou MotW ever released for the PS2?
