Sorry to mooch off your thread but can anyone tell me if it's worth getting KOTOR 2 for the xbox? I had it on PC and loved it but it wouldn't run that well.

Birthright: The Gorgon's Alliance, such a great game, and such a shame that there's no sequel.

You want to talk old games (or games that just look like they're old but are in fact open-source)? Take a gander at my collection:

- The entire Europa Universalis series (EU, Victoria, Crusader Kings, and Hearts of Iron)
- Railroad Tycoon II (the Platinum edition's available cheap on Steam)
- Simutrans (open-source Transport Tycoon-type game)
- Patrician 2/3 and Port Royale 1/2
- Airline Tycoon First Class (a little gem from Germany)
- Capitalism II
- Caesar II (Plebs are needed! And the game, from 1995, is still the series' best)

SWAT 4 and Freelancer. Freelancer is a special game, I'd kill for a squeal.

I quite liked Rainbow Six Vegas 2, wasnt very popular but its a very solid shooter.
Terrorist hunt ftw! I love Rainbow six vegas 1+2.

My top 3 games are Lost Odyssey, The Darkness and Saints Row 2.

I have my favourite 360 games listed on my profile, but i didn't play many games that weren't mainstream on platforms before the 360 because i wasn't adventurous enough and I didn't have the cash.

Age of Wonders 2 is some good turn-based strategy fun, if you're into that kind of thing. I've sunk a lot of time into it, anyway, but it isn't extremely well known, so I'm guessing you haven't played it.

Saint's Row 2 is fun and underrated
Sly Cooper (short but sweet)
Dead Space
Okami

That's all I can think of for underrated titles

Space Empires IV
Star Trek: Armada
MageSlayer (good luck finding it, though)
Empire Earth
IL-2 Sturmovik 1946
Dungeon Siege

They're not exactly obscure games (with the possible exception of MageSlayer, which is from around 1997) but I had fun with them, and maybe you will as well.

Hey cheer up, I'm sure someone will squeal for you

sorry, just had to, it's a compulsion
Typing of the Dead! That's a good game, plus it helps to avoid making a fool of yourself

So obscure and awesome eh?

T.R.A.G.-ps1

Ape Escape 1&2-ps1

Powerstone-Dreamcast

Megaman Legends 1&2-ps1

Dino Crisis-ps1

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex-PS2

Some may be a little japanese for your distinguished Anglo-Saxon tastes but they all brought something new to the table and are still fun today.

inFamous is a good game but everyone KNOWS of it already. T.R.A.G is a good example of what I'm looking for.

American doesn't mean Anglo-Saxon :p

Ghost in the Shell and some others are fine, I'm just really tired of the digimon and legend of dragoon typecasts.
