i thought i'd be funny to own a complete collection of ps2 2d games despite this hooplah about SCEA's stance on 2-D games. I just need a complete list :o here's what i've found so far:
Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium
Culdcept
Guilty Gear
Guilty Gear XX
The King of Fighters 2000/2001
Street Fighter EX3
Super Bust-A-Move
Super Bust-A-Move 2
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Disgea

Activision Anthology
Intellivision Lives
Midway Arcade Treasures
Namco Museum
Romance of the Three Kingdoms VII
Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII
Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX
If Disgaea qualifies as "2D", then wouldn't the following games also count as 2D?
R-Type Final
Dynasty Tactics
Dynasty Tactics 2
Silpheed

Maybe if we can define how 2D and 3D are presented in this context, we might get somewhere.

well im considering 2d as using sprites for the main moving items in a game (characters for example) like in Xenogears, BoF 4, and Culdcept.

How about:
Gradius 3/4
Mobile Light Force 2
Then there's stuff in psuedo-2D:
Parappa 2
Klonoa 2
Dragonball Z
Fantavision
Dire 51

Damn right R-Type Final counts as a 2D game. It may have fancy 3D backgrounds and effects, but it's 2D to its core.
Here's the list I have so far. It can be found as a part of this article: http://www.geocities.com/opcfg2/2don3d.html
If anyone happens to see any games I don't have listed in any section of this article, let me know.

take out Parappa due to the fact that its more cell shading then anything else..plus Kalona is more of a 3d game with its worlds. the same with Pandamonia.

How does cell-shading effect whether something is a 2D game or not? Viewtiful Joe is the perfect example of a 2D cell-shaded game.
:P
If you are asking for 2D in general, and not specifically sprite-driven game, I'd say Contra: Shattered Solder and Blowout (which is available on Xbox and Cube as well). Both are side scrolling polygon-based 2D games.
