Lego Racers, Lego Island Xtreme Stunts, Cultures 2, Virtua Tennis 2, Football Manager (series), Praetorians, F1 06, Luminous Arc, Star Wars: Republic Commando, Blade II, Phoenix Wright (series)
My video game purchase policy is slightly biased towards games I remember from my youth, but also consists primarily of cheap pre-owned games. I end up with lots of underrated games. I spend quite a lot of my time on the Escapist trying to make people care.

Why thank you, I guess it is hardcore. Though I've never created a new profile so as to begin at Level 1 again so perhaps that's something I should next attempt. Sure it would be nice to play multiplayer on DR2 with another fanatic like myself. Also, just out of interest, I guess you've tried Infinity Mode before? If so what time did you achieve?ZZoMBiE13 said:Wow, that's hard core. I have done most of that, but never without using firearms of any kind. I always try to keep at least a few shotguns around for the survivors to use.Kroker said:
When DR 2 comes out hit me up for some multiplayer.
Im not going to make a huge list but i will mention one of the most underrated jrpgs ever made
Baten Kaitos (Gamecube)
Kind of a mixture between yu-gi-oh and final fantasy you choose your cards to fight with and make different combinations of cards with different elemental attacks. Its one of my favourite games on the Gamecube and one of the longest (you are looking at a good sixty hours from start to finish)The plot is incredibly good (And by good i mean final fantasy good) and it booast one of the biggest plot twist in a videogame to date but i won't spoil it so you can play it yourself and find out or just look on wikipedia or something.

The World Ends with You (DS)
Devil Survivor (DS)
Phantom Crash (Xbox)
Jet Set Radio [Future] (Dreamcast/Xbox360)
Shadow of the Collossus (PS2)
Sonic Adventure/2 (Dreamcast)
Psychonaughts (Xbox)
Monster Rancher 2 (PS1)
These are probably my picks for games that, while proably not overly underrated, don't get nearly the recognition they actually deserve.

Psychonauts certainly gets top honors, but I think a more underrated game would be the DS version of Spider-Man: Web of Shadows. Say what you will about the console version, but the DS version is like a cross between Metroid and Viewtiful Joe. And it's as good as it sounds.
