What was your best two Playstation2/ Xbox game from way back then and why?

Mine was Def Jam: Fight for NY. The fact I could customize my fighter to learn 3 different fighting styles where each combination is not the same was great. Plus interactive environments, taunts that vary, ability to pick objects and special finishers based on the environment (train, crow office).

Next was 007: Everything or Nothing. Single player mission was alright but where I enjoyed it was the multiplayer missions that I could do. Rappels, split screen where each person was needed to pass a stage (not nowadays that it's all ROFL I EZ OP with mah grenade launcher) and great soundtrack.

So that's my favorite games.

EDIT: I wonder why Riot didn't just move this thread from Gameplay and Balance rather than delete it and make me redo the thread again :(.
