Grimfandango. It's a point and click adventure game written by Tim Schafer, that should be every hipster gamers wet dream. It was so good, my freaking dad loved it.
Also battlefield 1942. I only hang out on this forum so maybe it just doesn't get mentioned much around here. I was amazed by the amount of crap you could do in that game. I was really hoping battlefield 3 would be like battlefield 1942 except with bigger maps and breaking stuff physics. I was disappointed.

Original War... An absolutely brilliant RTS with a great branching story, quite unique game mechanics, cool soundtrack that I can still remember after all these years, even the graphics aged quite well... The voice acting is painful to listen to, but in my mind, it just adds to the atmosphere 
Yeah I thought Penumbra was creepier by far. I preferred the story and setting more and thought they cranked the scarinessMatthew94 said:
Penumbra was awesome, Greenland is such a cool setting for a horror game, you know you're all alone whereas in Amnesia I was thinking if I could just jump out the window I'd be fine. For some reason it always remind's me of "The Thing". And the story is awesome
Vanquish- literally the best single-player shooter ever released, for any platform, and one of the best games of this current gen. No love?
Vanquish, I know it's generic and doesn't do anything even remotely new, but I've always felt it did those things right, and I'd much rather take an old idea done well than a new one done poorly.
I've had it so long that I really can't remember where I got it. Dune is a great book series. So we have an RTS based on it, made by Westwood... What's not to love?unstabLized said:

Oh man, I forgot about that game! It was really well done. Excellent music and humor. I think it didn't quite get enough attention because the gameplay, while fun, was a bit different. In shooters you shoot guns, in RPG's you (generally) swing swords, in racing games you drive cars, and in Stubbs the Zombie you...roll your head at people. Fun, no doubt, but different.Scrustle said:
I always hated how little attention that game got. It was like the Ninja Gaiden of shooters and everyone just saw it as a robotic take on Gears of War. Damn, damn shame.Dr.Panties said:
Anyways, for a game i'd wish would get more attention is the Serious Sam series. Especially with how everyone complains about modern shooters being so slow and boring, I'm amazed people don't flock to that series like it's the last good meal on Earth.
Ok I couldn't decided which series to pick, so here's both of them:
Ratchet and Clank/Jak and Daxter
Seriously, these are my two favorite franchises of all time and they usually don't get very much coverage. I know a lot of people like them but, aside from the recent HD re-releases, no one's even mentioned them outside of nostalgia trips.

The Mega Man Zero series.
I'll admit, there isn't really much to say about the games. Despite having semi-open worlds, the four games might as well be as linear as Half-Life and the upgrade system is flexible but isn't flexible enough to garner discussion or create drastically different character builds.
However, the series might as well be the best action anime simulator ever. It marks lots of the check-boxes and avoids the major cliches that are present within every genre of anime. And on top of that, the story brings up interesting points and there is an overwhelming gratification in flinging oneself around and slice every enemy in your path.

Sins of a Solar Empire has cult love but is almost never brought up in mainstream strategy game discussion. Fire Emblem used to be cult but has grown more and more common.
Resonance of Fate. I really wish Yahtzee would do a review of it. It is not like other JRPGs. I could cosplay as the main characters and no one would be able to tell.
Cool, how far in are you?[/quote]Hazzard said:
what in the world gave you both the impression that nobody talks about kingdom hearts? It's still one of Square's most popular series, minus of course the non-numbered titles, of course I don't share those opinions
That game was pure awesome. I really need to dig that out again and have another run with it.krazykidd said:
