Just showing off gameplay of ports of PC FPS games to the PS2. In the ones that have mouse support, I used the mouse with controller combination (I didn't feel like pulling out another Keyboard to use).

Honestly, these are all pretty good IMO. I know that's anathema to PC gamers to hear, but I still love the PS2 port of Deus EX, and some of the changes they made. It still has that amazing design theory of the original, and I've got a soft spot for it, because I played the PS2 version first.

Half-Life was an exceptional port for it's time, arguably the best PC to console port up to that point. It improved the graphics, added an extra two-player mode, and even has a hidden way to play the Uplink Demo. Add in full KB/Mouse support, and you have an exceptional port.

I don't own the PC version of NOLF, so I can't compare it, but when it comes to PS2 FPS games, I still really enjoy what it offers to the genre.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein didn't have any online play or two-player coop like the Xbox version does, but it does have extra levels from the PC version, and they added a really cool leveling up feature where finding secret areas in the game will give players bonus points they can then spend on upgrading their stats. It's a really clever addition that adds incentive to fully explore each level. Honestly, this is a great single-player port.

Soldier of Fortune is perhaps the most rough around the edges compared to the others on this list. Like NOLF, I don't own the PC original to compare either the PS2 or DC versions of the game to. Hoever, aside from the fun gore-factor, it's a solid FPS game, and I think the only instance I can think of of the Quake II engine running on the PS2. It also has some fun bot deathmatches as well.
