On PCSX2 0.9.2, I can run FFX at a steady 40-45fps ingame, or 35fps in FMVs. FFX does have huge 3D environments, so I figure that there has to be some games that run really fast. If so, what are they, and are there any that I could get full-speed from?

Look through the Screenshots thread to get an idea. The problem with this question (other than the fact it gets asked at least once a week) is that no one really knows. The screenshots thread was created partly to help people figure this out for themselves.

In general:
- 2D and 2.5D games are the fastest running games. This includes games like Disgaea and LaPucell Tactics.
- FFX tends to run faster than most 3D games because the devs have a lot of love for it. It's the 'posterboy' for PCSX2.

Like barious said, the 2d games will run atleast double the speed of most the basic 3d games, try disgea and disgea 2, they both run on my ****ty comp round 25-40fps, depending on area's while ffx-2 runs maybe 19 MAX.

but if you want to really test what games will run at what, try res evil 4, as that game runs the slowest i believe on the emu, and im not sure whats the "fastest" game, but it would be any of the 2d games as there mostly all the same.
