I never got to play Earthbound, to my great distress. I only listed games I own and can safely list from personal experience.thiosk said:a good portion of this list are not underaprecited, and actually are quite well-remembered.Arcane Azmadi said:SNES

but you missed Earthbound. Silly
Oh yeah, ZoEII was FANTASTIC, but I listed the original because I felt II was appreciated enough and the first game gets a bit of a bad rap (admittedly II is MUCH better). On reflection I probably should have said both.Calax said:...
Why has only ONE person said Zone of the Enders II: the second runner?
Sure the dubbing sucked but it's the best melee mecha game I've ever SEEN!
Only because no one could find it to buy it. I loved the first one on the SaturnArcane Azmadi said:Fighting Vipers 2
Valkyria Chronicles makes me jealous of PS3 owners. That game looks so good. Anyways, for me I have to go with Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg. The single player was annoying and frustrating, with puzzles sometimes revolving around doing something to utter perfection before they could be passed, but the multiplayer was actually a lot of fun. Playing with 3 friends was great, especially when someone found an awesome egg, and everyone started grabbing at it to hatch it.PrimeSynergy said:Otogi Myth of Demons
Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict
.........and VALKYRIA CHRONICLES!
Defiance is under rated.TheDoctor455 said:The entire Myst series. The entire Legacy of Kain series. (except for Defiance)
Chrono Cross ruined me on card based games.The_Oracle said:I swear, it's like only a few people properly appreciate Baten Kaitos/Baten Kaitos Origins. Look, I'm not saying they're sacrosanct like the Zelda and Mario games, and they're not game-of-the-year titles, but what they are are deep, creative RPGs with a pretty original story with some twists you will not see coming, in addition to solid gameplay and fantastic music pieces written by Motoi Sakuraba himself.
More info on Baten Kaitos [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baten_Kaitos] for the Gamecube and Baten Kaitos Origins [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baten_Kaitos_Origins], the prequel, also for the Gamecube, can be found on the links I've attached. If I may be so bold, you owe it to yourself as a Gamecube owner, if you are one, to give Baten Kaitos the consideration it deserves. Peace out.
Dude.Janus Vesta said:Damn you. I came into this thread to say Oddworld. Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus were the best. Munch's Oddysee was good, but the controls were kind of awkward. Stranger's Wrath was great. Though the giant talking chickens kind of killed the feel of Oddworld. And Stranger's Wrath wasn't on Mudos like the first three were.Amarok said:You sly dog, you just mentioned it! Any bets we placed would be moot!Indigo_Dingo said:Anyone want to bet on how long it takes Psychonauts to be mentioned?
Anyway, I nominate Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus, maybe the other two are good too but I never did have an xbox so I wouldn't know.
But those two games blew my miiiiiind. Unique story, challenging (and at times frustrating) gameplay, and controllable farts. What more could you want in a game?
I'm going to have to agree that Space Station Silicon Valley was greatly unerappreciated. It was by far one of the best games on the system and to this day there's nothing like it.army-88 said:Alright, so I'm sure there are plenty of games out there that pretty much nobody ever played but you, but did you ever love them. What are some of the most underappreciated games you've played?
I'm going to say Silicon Valley for the N64. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one to ever love that game but it is completely amazing.
I LAN all the time. It's definitely not just the Swedes.Sugarfluff said:I agree, I would always opt for Dark Crusade whenever me and my friends would play LAN (do you other people say that too or is "LANing" just something we swedes say when we bring our computers to a friends place).SL33TBL1ND said:Really? I liked Dark Crusade much more for the for the multiplayer and I liked Dawn of War 2 much more than the rest of them for the epic story driven csmpaign.Christemo said:Heroes of Might and magic 3-5. best turn-based strategy game of all time.
Titan Quest. Best RPG of all time (single player most of the time, but it has online play and a map editor).
Dawn of War: Soulstorm. Best of the DOW series, but it was not very well known and DOW2 has ruined the entire franchise.
I haven't played the entire DOW2 campaign yet but the multiplayer sure beats the previous games, if with a bit of balancing issues.
As for a favorite neglected game Diablo 1 (I played this game far after its release so maybe I just missed the tide but it was an awesome game that next to none of my friends have played)
