Guitar Woman "Jet Set Gemini" might be the most awesome idea for a game I've ever heard

Codiekitty Is "underrated" defined as "not quite as popular as FF7" or something?

Musashi!

Brave Fencer Musashi is underrated in my opinion. I remember when it came out most only bought it cause it came with a demo of FFVIII


It's a really fun game.

Also the first Grandia of course.

One of my favorite games of all time but never got much of a following.

Then you're not going to the right places.

The PSX games fluctuate in price, but I've seen times when Silver Star Story was going for, like, $80 complete. Right now it seems like Eternal Blue is going for that much and Silver Star is $40.

GameFAQs has a lot of reviews for it, and only four of them (I didn't count individually, just scanned) gave it less than an 8. Most are 9s and 10s. It's almost universally praised by game magazines, like GameInformer which had that dumbfounding line about how its cliche, by-the-numbers story was refreshing.

I haven't played it, but I have it on good authority it's actually terrible, generic, and tedious.

MetalMilitia Oh, I have one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codename_Eagle

Don't know why this game wasn't more popular. Although I only ever played it in a LAN so chances are it had horrible networking or something.

Jeff The Ninja Horray, a thread i can get into

- Thousand Arms. One of my top 5 best RPG's for the PSone, and i dont know why i like it so much.

- Columns. The only puzzle game to rival tetris in my mind.

- Lunar(any game in the series excluding Dragon Song). Just because no one i know has played them

- Tobal no1. Why the fuck did i sell this game. I missed grabing that dude with the tail and swinging him around.

- WWF In your House. Ultimate Warrior.

- Rhapsody a Musical Adventure.

Zomboid Aww that brings back memories. I remember some really dumb translation errors that I don't see how they could have missed. Stuff like "this is a mell of a hess!"

Grislygus My copy would never go past the water dragon boss fight.
Feb 28th, 2008 02:01 PM
Emu Now I want to go play it again. I never did beat it.
Feb 28th, 2008 02:01 PM
Grislygus We'd MST 3000 that shit all over the place, man. Good times

The shitty dialogue was the best part!

Roggs Crimson Sea 2 - PS2

Psi Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy - PS2

These are the two big ones that come to mind for me. They're innovative and fun, but I don't know anyone else who's even heard of them.

Grislygus My friends and I would play that whenever we got bored. And when we got bored of that it was straight to Ace Combat.
Feb 28th, 2008 01:13 PM
Zomboid LoD kicked ass. That was one of my favorite games at the time.
Feb 28th, 2008 01:09 PM
Grislygus I also disliked FF9.

I got to the second disk and realized that I didn't give a flying fuck about anything that was going on. Of course, I loved Legend of Dragoon for the timing/combat thingamajigger, so my personal taste is admittedly pretty fucked in the head.

Magreaux I always thought E.V.O. was pretty darned underrated.
Feb 27th, 2008 11:09 PM
King Hadas I think Bloodrayne is a pretty good one especially considering you can probably pick up a copy of it for less than five bucks (I got mine for 2). The synopsis on the back of the box smells of Anne Rice but the games not like that at all, there's alot to love here. Gameplays kind of crude, not broken though, and the graphics are pretty bad by todays standards. Its not a great game but its a pleasant surprise.

Girl Drink Drunk Because it takes, Diff'rent Strokes to move the world!

Emu Guitar Woman you and I are just on two different wavelengths entirely!

DuFresne Ha, I bought Final Fantasy 9 used for a few bucks about two years ago and have yet to even pop it in my machine. It just looks kind of bad and uninteresting.
