Games you love but no one seems to talk about

[Squidbulb]

I'll go with jet Force Gemini. It's an N64 game made by Rare, and it's a lot of fun. The aiming doesn't really work too great but the game is still good regardless. It's a third person shooter about defeating cliched alien insects and saving some other aliens that look like the furry things from Gremlins (Or you can always shoot them).
Plus one of the secret weapons is a box of fish food. It does exactly what you'd expect.

Currently I have a almost unknown game in my DS that I am playing again after several years.

The Dark Spire. You don't get much more old school rpg than this without using real dice. You will almost certainly require the use of a FAQ to get the 3rd ending if not the 1st, and it makes Dark Soul's plot look dense by comparison.

You will also die way more than Dark Souls, and about half the time there was literally nothing you could have done to change your fate. Luckily you can save at pretty much any time, so getting ambushed by 30 mobs including venom dragons and cloud giants is only half as bad.

Of course your thief might screw up disarming a chest and kill/paralyze/petrify/purge buffs/drain mp you all anyways.

The Sabateur as it is the most stylish game ever.
add a flamethrower tank in the later stages and the abulity to steal uniforms and bash a nazi genrals brains out from behind him with a tommy gun and you have perfection. I think the exec who shut down pandemic deserves to be put out on the street.

You're selling the game short! The best part of that game was grabbing a stg44 by the barrel and swinging it at a Nazi's head like a baseball bat, and that was only the stealth option!

Is it wrong that I found the sound effect for that kill so satisfying? Plus sneaking up on a genral killing his gaurds plus him and then taking his uniform and destroying the base he was suposed to protect is always funny. the tanks in the game have the best physics as well as the treads bend over obsticals and act relisticly.

I don't hear very much about Beneath a Steel Sky, which sucks, because it kicks ass.
It's like 1984 with quirkiness instead of bleakness.
It features:
*A sarcastic robot sidekick
*A jukebox that makes a bunch of weird sex jokes
*More Freudian Slips than you could ever desire
*A figure by the name of "Mr. Cool"
*Some of the catchiest music ever to be in a game
*Some of the most amusing characters in videogame history
*Art and some direction by Dave Gibbons
*Robert Foster is great
*IT'S FREE

Plus a freaking dave gibbons comic at the start. the only downside is that the australian accents are just bad

 

[Andy Shandy]

never played off the record is that any good?

I quite enjoyed it, yeah. It was quite clearly made for existing fans to buy as well as it's full of references to the other two games. And the story is a little different, which I liked, so it wasn't basically just a pallet swap, with Frank replacing Chuck.

As far as I know, only one person on here know the game Gotcha Force, well to be fair it was a niche game so there weren't that many when it was release.

Bulletstorm. It's a bloody gem!

It's actually got a deep character intense plot that you wouldn't notice if you let the fact that they swear a lot blind you to it. Seriously Grayson's character is awesome and his relationship with Ishi is really good and is at times, a good exercise in his flaws as a character.

Yes the combat is really fun and you can kick things and shoot things and the shotgun is offically the best shotgun ever created. But it's a character piece primarily. A good one at that.

Also League of Legends. There have more people talking about it at least a bit on this site lately but hey it could always be better.

So they're nerfing Diana... Not sure if it's actually warranted or not because i'm one of those crazy people who didn't have an issue with her. However it'll keep the rabid "omg I died OP" people in line for an extra second. Then they'll die to Rengar once and shift the OP blame train onto him.


Now if you'll excuse me I need to try to get over the fact that Katarina's Death Lotus is no longer a destroyer of worlds... It only destoys half a world now ;_;

Yes she's better now but people should die in the thousands when I press that bloody R key! Not all get to 100 hp! I'm out of cooldowns and I just get focused down before my next W because Kat is damn squishy!

lol they should nerf darius first in truth.
OT: Phantom Crash great mech game no one seams to of played it, and its far inferior sequel is on the PS 2 instead of the X-box under the name slai(slay?)

Starwish
Its a flash game so its kinda to be expected.
Its music is good and its Rpg mechanics actually make a difference.

Lego Island 1 and 2, I really did enjoy them.

Mega Man ZX Series.

An underrated game series that simultaneously celebrates what made the Mega Man games awesome while innovating with special transformations, an interesting plot, kickass music, and a well done Metroidvania environments!

True dat, I played zx and zx advent to death. But for some reason no one seems to like them.

Although, i prefer the zero series, they had a much better story imo, and megaman zero 4 is my favourite megaman game ever.

OP: look at my avatar.

 

[Launcelot111]

999 is basically SAW but with less gore, an actually good story, and characters you care about.

This suggestion is a ...

That game is so good with all the little pseudoscience hints and the misdirections that the bracelets provide. And then it turns out that everyone has their secrets and all that just adds to the already awesome characters. And it's just a bonus that the puzzles are pretty good too. My only complaint is that the plot went a little off the rails at the end, but that doesn't change that more people need to play that game.

 

[Kopikatsu]

Metal Wolf Chaos, the most American game to come out of America. EXCEPT IT DIDN'T BECAUSE IT'S JAPANESE.\

Also the Disgaea series.

Can't blame you for liking MMZ more, that series has the best plot in the Mega Man franchise.

Also, FUCK YEAH BOKTAI!

Alien Legacy, an awesome city building space exploration resource management game from the dos era that has some of the best exploration incentives around.

It's strange that game got so little attention with all the space building fans that exist. It really should be on GoG.

It lacked replayability and felt like a very long tutorial, but the first playthrough was a great experience.

 

[Mr Dizazta]

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for the GBA. I never here anyone talk about or when I do it is usually negative.

 

[Poetic Nova]

The last one maybe not so much but I don't see people talk about it outside the Carmageddon forums.

 

[D-Class 198482]

Painkiller and Jaws Unleashed
and some Flipside, a HL2 mod

 

[natster43]

Custom Robo.
It is a pretty fun robot fighting game, but I don't think I have ever seen it brought up here once.

Have at it.
