Name some underrated games that everyone should play

[Burrito With Legs]

I was thinking about how there are a lot of great games that get overshadowed by big titles like call of duty or battlefield. What are some great underrated games?

Here is my list:

Ico
Kirby: The Crystal Shards (have not played Return to Dreamland Yet)
Cave Story
Pokemon Snap
Yoshi's Story
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
Sonic Generations
007 Nightfire
3D Dot Game Heroes
Alan Wake

Edit: If anyone cares, I was thinking of starting a lets play channel where I play underrated games

Goodness, you hit the nail right on the head. I actually read the Alan Wake novel and I really enjoyed it. Also, Pokemon Snap is one of my favorite games. Add Street Cleaning Simulator to that list, though.

Run Like Hell.

Seriously awesome scifi/survival horror, great Mass Effect-esque setting. Way before its time. Unfortunately, it flew under the radar since the development was rough so the story is way better-done than its gameplay.
