Im really looking forward to the third game :D |

| Oh, I'll join in the Dungeon Keeper and Beyond Good and Evil love. In the sad "liked by critics but sold like poo" category, I recently finished playing Okami and Eternal Darkness, both of which were fantastic but will probably never see sequels (DS doesn't count for me, boo). |
| Dynasty/Samurai Warriors series haha They are just my guilty pleasures of mine :P Seriously speaking though, the Disciples games by StrategyFirst on PC were awesome and sucks that they got overlooked by many gamers. :P |
| Viewtiful Joe. Just cool. |
| Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World Threads of Fate Final Fantasy IX |
 |
| Command and Conquer Renegade. Horrendous single player, but playing online with fifty other people at the same time is truly awesome. |
Confucius say man who stand on toilet is high on pot. |
| Wild Arms 2 |
 |
| I liked Dungeon keeper and also UFO:Enemy Unknown / X-COM Defense I do not remember what title was used for PC, I played it on Amiga back in the days. |
 |
| The Saboteur I fucking love this game. |
| Final Fantasy IX - my favorite game of all time and prolly one of the most hated and downrated Final Fantasy games of all time. Seems the change in direction from cyberpunk fantasy to steampunk fantasy wasn't liked by alot of people. Okami - one of the best games of last gen. Sadly it didn't appeal to lots of people which made studio clover go bankrupt. Really a sad thing as Okami was one of the most original games of last gen with a special story and great new game mechanics. |

Seems the change in direction from cyberpunk fantasy to steampunk fantasy wasn't liked by alot of people. Basically, the fandom was taken by Final Fantasy VII cancer who didn't get Final Fantasy to begin with. With IX they went back to what made it good for the first time in years. They never should have changed directions toward Cyberpunk to begin with. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| I'll be unoriginal to start with and mention Okami. Then there's also other games which it seems nobody even noticed, like Battlezone, Incoming, Heretic and Primal. Strangely enough I was trying to find out what game I played ages ago when the PS2 was released, found out it was Shadow of Memories and then read this today and see it in here. Damn coincidences. |
lifeaspect said: Final Fantasy IX - my favorite game of all time and prolly one of the most hated and downrated Final Fantasy games of all time. Seems the change in direction from cyberpunk fantasy to steampunk fantasy wasn't liked by alot of people. Totally agree. That and FFVII are my 2nd favourite FF (can't decide which, both behind VIII though) Seasonreaper said: Primal. Wow, I've never met anybody else that's even played this game. It came as part of my PS2 package, and I thought it was amazing. Haven't played it in a while though, I'll have to dig it out sometime. |

| Shadow of the Colossus. It was highly acclaimed by fans of Ico, but other than that it never really got the fame is deserved. |
| Shadow of mother fucking Destiny. Seriously, Shadow of Destiny is a brilliant fucking classic. |
Mindcrime said: Shadow of mother fucking Destiny. Seriously, Shadow of Destiny is a brilliant fucking classic. AKA Shadow of Memories. Same game ;). |
| san fransisco rush 2049 for the N64. wings. on cars. in the future. oh, and did i mention battle mode? GUNS. on cars. in the future. hell yes. |
porkypink said: Touhou Project. Every single person in the world must know this! And it needs to be promoted as an actual game not a doujin That game induces nightmares. A series that definitely doesn't get enough love is the Tales of series. Its depressing to see that it goes under the radar in the US when a new one is released. The only one that I know has a lot of recognition here is Symphonia. feder said: Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World Monster raising and lack of love for the original cast is what kills the interest in the game for me. |

| I actually really loved Super Mario Sunshine, at least they were trying something a little bit different with Mario, and I actually thought that it worked. It would definitely have to be one of my favourite games but a lot of people just forgot about it. And c'mon, how cool was having a jetpack propelled by water? |

frostReturns said: Banjo Tooie is the only shit you should smoke. YES. |
| ♥ |
| I have to go with Killing Floor. Despite how the press gave it mediocore reviews I enjoy that game very, VERY much. |
| My default answer to this question is always, of course.. King of Dragon Pass. I know I harp on it, but seriously, a fucking brilliant game if you can get a hold of it. |
 |
| Well my favorite underdog and wish that it was actually was more successful would be Mirrors Edge and a close 2nd would go to the Saints Row Series. |

| Dungeon Keeper was AMAZING! But for my vote I'm gonna throw Sacrifice, not so much underrated, but seriously underplayed. |
| Heavenly Guardians- PS2 |
Well one thing I've learned from this experience, is that a princess is still a princesss even when she is naked. |
| Shadow of the Colossus |
        |
| Timesplitters. Not that underated it's just not as big as it deserved to be. |
 |
| Probably Gadget Racers for the PS2. http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/driving/gadgetracers/index.html |
| Vampire Night, oh man it was so fun. |

My friend downloaded it after reading a LP of it. Its a pretty interesting game that i would definitely play if i owned a PC... Syb3rStrife said: Shadow of the Colossus How is this underrated in any way? Almost every critic loves it and it is on all kinds of top lists. I myself own and love it as well... but i don't think this is underrated... As for me I would have to go with Dragon Warrior Monsters, which, now that i look at it, got stunningly mediocre reviews. |

| Okami: Best game ever that no one bought. Armored Core: I can understand this though, Not everyone enjoys tweaking the balance of their mech and finding it's sweet spot in it's center of gravity......BUT THEY SHOULD! |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Odin Sphere - yeah, this game has its fanbase, but it also catches a lot of flack for various reasons. It is, however, a fantastic game. Also, Zelda II. |
| Pro Evolution 2010. Most people hate it but i love it |
 |
| Here are some games which I consider to be underrated: Shinobi (PS2)- Sure, its not a very faithful remake to the Sega classics, but its still a damn fun and challenging game at its core, IMO. Power Stone 2 (SDC)- It takes everything great from the 1st game and improves on all of it. If the series had continued with some sequels, I'd say that it'd be a worthy rival to the famous Super Smash Bros. series, especially since it has its own twist by allowing you to brawl on a 3D plane rather than just a 2D one. Jet Grind Radio (SDC) and Jet Set Radio Future (XBOX)- There is a certain weird-ness and obscure quality to these games, but one thing is for sure: They are both fun as hell. Its a shame that we couldn't ever get another sequel in this series. =( Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword (NDS)- Its a pretty fun and unique Nintendo DS game. Its a shame that it didn't sell better, but I suppose that's probably most people this generation who don't own an XBOX360 don't care about Ninja Gaiden (going by its signficiantly lower sales on the NDS and PS3) unless its the NES classics which are available on the Wii Virtual Console. There are some other games that I consider to be underrated, but I might just post them up later. |

I didn't think AC4 was underrated. Looked at the reviews just now and was shocked to find out critics were of mixed opinion. It's downright awesome, probably on my top 5 PS3 games. Also, Valkyria Chronicles. Not too many people I know who play know this game. But again another masterpiece. Within my top 3, easy. |
| RuneScape. Older people devalue RuneScape, saying it is a game for children, but it is one of the best games I've played so far. |
