Tristan1138 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Throughout my gaming, in my childhood i played a lot of games that i hear almost nothing about while on the internet years later so i wanted to list games i feel are underrated or obscure. Please, feel free to post your list. Kingdom Under Fire The Crusaders Mech Assault 2 Lone Wolf Crimson Skies Road to Revenge Metropolismania Dead Mans Hand Area 51 Perfect Dark Zero The Saboteur Heroes of The Pacific ATV Offroad Fury 3 These are games that come to mind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightstream88 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Eternal SonataDark SectorDust An Elysian Tail Blade KittenBig Mutha Truckers(gamecube)Second Sight(Gamecube) Lost Kingdoms 1 & 2(Gamecube)would Baten Kaitos Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean count? about what I can think of right off hand and maybe was going to post Okami, Viewitful Joe and Killer 7 but think those might be fairly popular. don't know about Killer 7. and probably Legend of Spyro Trilogy and Heroes Tail. And Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog would probably fall in the underrated category. Edited December 7, 2015 by Nightstream88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegirlruka Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I think the Katamari games would qualify as obscure and the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy would qualify as underrated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soniq Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Gregory's Horror Show, Gitaroo Man, Metal Arms: Glitch in the System & Dog's Life on PS2. Most games I want to list are only obscure and/or underrated by today's standards, but were actually pretty popular and well known back when they came out. I would also have added The Mark of Kri to the list if it wasn't for the re-release on PS4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristan1138 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Perfect Dark Zero is not underrated or obscure. It kinda is underrated i didnt get it when it released so maybe that swayed my thoughts on the game being known or not. After reading all the comments and looking some of these games up, it looks like i got a new shopping list of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeabagMcFrag Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 ObsCure despite the ironic name is rather obscure, didn't find many copies of it in shops until it released on Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugoslav_Jelash Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Well, I don't know if these games (from my list) are obscure or underrated, but I rarely see them in discussions. Me? I like(d) them; some more, some less, but they're all good if you ask me. So, in no particual order, some old 'n' new games here: True Lies Warlock Stargate Outland Infinite Undiscovery Star Wars Episode I: Racer Sine Mora Deathsmiles Red Faction: Armageddon Lord of the Rings: The Third Age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenShaka Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 For obscure I'd say Hunted the demon forge, man that game it's obscurus. And for underrated: Outland, Rage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
