PS2 games that still hold up today?

Picked up a slim PS2 at a car boot sale with no games. Want to build a small collection of stuff that's still fun to play now, not just nostalgic. What would you start with?

Gran Turismo 4, God of War 1 and 2, Silent Hill 2, Metal Gear Solid 3 and Kingdom Hearts. On a modern TV get component cables rather than the composite ones that came in the box. Makes a bigger difference than you'd think.

Burnout 3: Takedown is still the first thing I'd buy, it plays as well as anything modern. Then Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, Ratchet & Clank (2 or 3), Jak 2, TimeSplitters 2 and SSX Tricky. Persona 4 if you want something long. Katamari Damacy if friends come round. Get a memory card before anything else, you'd be amazed how many car boot PS2s come without one.
