The only game I can really recommend right now is NHL 2005. Yeah, if you like hockey, it's one kick ass hockey game. Not as good as NHL 2004, but it's better than NHL 2K5 in my opinion. Plus, since there's no real hockey

, it's a great way to get your hockey fix.

Another one to try is Athens 2004. No better way to relive the Olympics than by playing them on your PS2.
Sorry, I can only really recommend sports games, more specifically hockey games.
