Is the PS2 the most dominant console of any generation? The PS1 wasn't as popular, but it also had weaker competition.

Previous Results:
Day 2 (SNES): Yoshi's Island
Day 3 (Genesis): Sonic 3 & Knuckles
Day 4 (Gameboy): Pokemon Gold/Silver
Day 5 (Gameboy Color): Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare
Day 6 (Game Gear): Ristar
Day 7 (N64): Perfect Dark, Conker's Bad Fur Day, F-Zero X (TIE)
Day 8 (PS1): Metal Gear Solid, Vagrant Story (TIE)
Day 9 (Saturn): Panzer Dragoon Saga
Day 10 (GBA): Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
Day 11 (GCN): Resident Evil 4
Day 12 (PS2): TBD

My Vote: Finally got into the Microsoft consoles. Think I'll go with Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. I expect this to be a less-popular topic, thanks to Xbox never being GameFAQs' favorite brand. What's even the biggest RPG on an Xbox console, anyway?

Steel Battalion but I dunno if that's actually true, it just stands out to me as something that hasn't been replicated before or since.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay

Game looks insanely good for the console it was on. Not sure what other standouts there are, Project Gotham Racing 2 doesn't quite hold up to Gran Turismo, Halo is amazing but technically not exceptional, and I think Half-Life 2 was on the original Xbox but that feels like cheating.

The biggest exclusive RPG is probably either Lost Odyssey or Blue Dragon. It's gotten a lot of multiplatform stuff in recent years for... some reason.

Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is what came to mind

Butcher Bay and PGR2 are also excellent choices

You are all forgetting a little game called Skyrim as far as major RPGs are concerned! Also The Witcher 3.

On the poll, just your reminder that MGS3 ran terribly compared to every other game on the poll. I love it but the PS2 version did have technical issues.

Anyway, for this one I will suggest Black.

To answer the question in the first post, the PS2 was definitely more dominant than the PS1 in that I wouldnt say the PS1 had weaker competition as much as less competition. The N64 was more popular than both the Gamecube and the Xbox and had the highest selling game of the generation. PS2 is right up there, the only console that might top it in terms of dominance is the NES.

Yeah, it really sticks out among the four on the poll, and I'm wondering if a lot of people just didn't play it on its original hardware.
