In an age where most video games tend to get ported or remastered at some point, there’s a dizzying array of PS2 games that still haven’t been released on modern platforms, even if they were released on other platforms at the time. In a couple of rare cases as well, they’ve been available on PC at some point but are now extremely difficult to find and make work, or have been delisted entirely. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at 10 PS2 games that are regrettably stuck on old hardware.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 reviewed by Chris Reed on Xbox Series X, also available on PlayStation 5 and PC. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a terrific third-person shooter with a compelling story, loads of weapons that are a blast to use, and a healthy variety of enemies to use them on. It once again borrows many of its ideas from the Gears of War series, but they’re good ideas, and Space Marine 2 does a fine job of making them its own. And while the Operations PvE mode that accompanies it doesn’t currently offer enough to keep me coming back, the deep customization options for your Space Marine do look promising if it’s supported in post-launch updates as planned. Besides, when you’re eviscerating aliens on planets as pretty as these, it’s hard not to leave satisfied.

Behaviour Interactive’s Dead by Daylight world is expanding with a narrative adventure by Until Dawn developer Supermassive Games. Called The Casting of Frank Stone, the horror game plays much like the developer’s Dark Pictures series and is a similar length as well as its 14 chapters go by in a handful of hours. While it doesn’t break a ton of new ground, it’s a satisfying extension of the universe that will appeal to Supermassive’s existing fans, even if the ending is bound to be divisive.
