The most disappointing game on that list is Crash Banditcoot. Although I guess nobody could've anticipated how bad it would be since it was the first one that wasn't developed by Naughty Dog.

Also, GT3 and GT4 conbined sold nearly 25 million copies. Hopefully GT5 will be just as successful. :)

1.4 - I too gave up on GTA IV
After less than 2 weeks I was back to call of duty and Uncharted.

All GTA games are a bit overrated, and all Halo games are WAY overrated. Never had much fun with any of them.

I agree, GTA games get boring after a week of play. My 2 favorite open world games that I've played are Far Cry 2 and The Darkness.

Haha, yeah. This is about the same as going on to Gamespot or IGN, doing a mass search on game review scores and calling it the "Top Ten Highest Rated Games Of All Time."

News, my ass.

6 - well we can say this..
rock star knows how to make some good sequals..first it was GTA3, then Vice city, and finally San Andreas (probably the biggest game on the ps2) and the successor sold more than the predecessor

It's a shame to see how low the Star Wars Battlefront games are. Such great games should've sold better.

Well at least Grand Theft Auto sold and sell well, I've always liked the series. Even though GTA4 wasn't the ultra mega shining masterpiece people hyped it up to be, it was still a pretty good game to me.

10 - Well,
I think it's more interesting to see the top ten reselling ps2 (and ps1) used games of all time... And get a comparison to establish the real ones...

PD The battlefronts, both SW starfighters, SW legos, GOWs, acecombats, LOKs, soulcaliburs, ZOEs, wipeout fusion, both lethal skies, sled storm, arcana hearts, crimson sea 2, deus ex (and project snowblind), megaman collections, galactica, armored core 2, MVsC2, splashdowns, extreme gs (racing games) and the retro compilations not in the top ten? It's sad, they ARE (not were) some of my favorites games on my beloved and still alive ps2... And not including the JAPANESE exclusive ones: Macross, Tformers tataki, another century ep2, sega rally, sidewinders, kunoichi, rockman PBF, darkstalkers, Simple series 2000s, etcetera... And the EU exclusives Knights of the Temple I and II... And so on... Oh!! I forgot! Can someone determine the top ten pirated games of ps2 (Both physical and internet)?...
