Road Rash: Jailbreak for PS1.

Such awesomeness shall never be forgotten.

*sigh* EA are too cool to make a sequel for the Road Rash series.
I loved that game... And hated some of those other jerk riders... There was always that one that had t kill you, every time...

Mine would be "War of the Monsters" for my good old play station 2.
There were so many fun things about this game; Multi-player? Yep. Different places to fight that actually had different mechanics in each level? Yep. A fairly good roster of monsters to choose from such as King King, God-zilla, a gundam, a gigantic prying mantis, a tiki-lava-god and an electricity infused eye ball? Yep.

That game was so much fun... Though only a few people have actually heard of it...

No one ever mentions Zone of the Enders: Second Runner or Crash Team Racing.

Space Station: Silicon Valley for the Nintendo 64. It's a quirky little platformer/combat/puzzle hybrid where you take control of various robotic animals, each with their own special weapons and abilities. The game was developed by DMA Design, which would later become Rockstar North (yes, THAT Rockstar North).

Urban Chaos: Riot Response (Xbox, PS2): An FPS with a winning combination of badassery and a bit of camp factor thrown in for good measure. An American city has been overrun by the "Burners," a gang that apparently consists of nothing but foul-mouthed clones of Jason Vorhees. You play as a member of "T-Zero," a no-nonsense unit that's essentially SWAT on steroids.

Gameplay mostly consists of mowing down hordes of Burners, all of whom scream various obscenities about your family. Not only do you get the usual arsenal of pistols, shotguns and assault rifles, but you're also given a handy riot shield that doubles as portable cover and a brutal melee weapon. Moreover, every level has a few secondary goals that unlock better versions of standard weapons.

Since you're technically part of law enforcement, one secondary goal for every mission is to subdue a certain number of Burners using non-lethal force, usually via tazer or stun grenade (though you can still kill them with the tazer by holding the fire button down, which eventually sets them ablaze).

Fire Emblem for the GBA is my favourite game and still no-one I've ever met has played it or even heard of it through any other source but me or SSB characters.

Drakengard... apparently I was the only person to ever play it.

I actually remember that it had like 5 endings, one of them was actually a massive story changer, as for the other 4 it just had you fighting the same boss for different reasons. I thought that was actually pretty badass.

Socom 3. haha

I would have slept through "Black" if a GS employee hadn't pointed it out to me. The lack of multiplayer really hurt it but it was an outstanding shooter.

I've played all 5 of the Fire Emblem games released in the US.

Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean and its prequel, Baten Kaitos: Origins, both for the Gamecube.

Psychonauts and Grim Fandango have both been mentioned, but I'm going to add Brutal Legend in too.

Enslaved: Odyssey To the West and Heavenly Sword, both by Ninja Theory.

Awesome game. I still regret trading it in all those years ago.

I loved Psychonauts - but it seems like everyone's played it now. Giant's Citizen Kabuto blew my socks off. The cut scenes are hilarious - excellent comedic writing. I am obsessed by SpaceChem at the moment (Steam Sale).

The game I want to promote into the debate is the hugely underplayed Space Rangers 2: Rise of the Dominators [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Rangers_2:_Dominators]. It is by no means a perfect game. The text adventures are badly translated into English - but that just adds to it's quirky charm. If you liked Elite, but wished it has a bit of a story - and that the map was smaller - and that it had a mini-RTS with robots - and play-your-own-adventure-style text adventures - and puzzle games - and a bit where you manage a ski resort - and become president of a planet in a rigged election - and a hundred different lunatic missions and diversions - whilst trying to help rid the galaxy of three big-bad alien fleets, then this is the game.

Two of the greatest games of all time.
also, very important here: NieR (another game no-one has played)

OT: Mana Khemia is a great JRPG gem that I have only even seen one person even on the Escapist play. Neat level up system, good story, and the combat animations just look cool.

Darkwatch is an awesome PS2/Xbox FPS with REAL vampires and steampunk.

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, Quirky, good controls and combat, somewhat creative weapons, and humour and sex references all POURING from this PG game.

Kung Fu Chaos.

It's a 3D comedy fighting game making a parody of old school kung fu movies.
It got fairly bad reviews, but i think it's fucking awesome and hilarious.

Panzer Dragoon Saga on Sega Saturn!!!!!11111oneoneoneoneeleven

Hardly anyone got to play that because they hardly printed any copies! Was tragically released towards the end of the Saturn's life.

I know there are rumours of the original game code being lost etc, but I would LOVE to see a PSN/XBL re-release of this game; or a complete remake if Sega had the balls to do it. The game has so much kudos and praise lingering over it that a lot of people would buy it to see what all the fuss was about, especially when you have plenty of reviewers claiming it was a better RPG than Final Fantasy VII, which in RPG terms is akin to blasphemy!

It was fully voiced in Japanese with subtitles, even in the US/EU release, with voice actors well known to anime fans such as Sakamoto Maaya and Ishida Akira.

I know it's just never gonna happen, but a girl can dream... *sigh*
