It couldn't quite match PS2 graphically but I feel it could hold its own as in remaining respectably close, not that many PS2 games look better than Soul Calibur IMHO.

It is undeniable though that the PS2 was harder to develop for than the DC (and GC/Xbox). With that, we can praise the architecture of the DC. DC developers could more easily reach peak performance for the games.

I still wonder though, if DC has been supported longer, how far could it have been pushed. Even consoles that are easy to develop for tend to advance graphically over time as tools, engines, and rendering techniques get better. PS2 did eventually pull ahead, but it had a lot more time to advance. Considering the DC is earlier tech I find it impressively competitive.
