Everytime one of these threads pop up, I will say the same:
Too Human
I don't care if the majority of people hate it, I like it. So there.

i have been intrigued by that, my friend was telling me about the control system which does sound kinda cool! that is a definate one to look into.

The control system can be weird and hard to get used to, but I found it really easy to use. The game is really enjoyable, there are parts in it that will make you mad, (such as the impossible task of getting through any of the levels beside the first few without dying.)Once you get past that though, it is really nice and enjoyable. I just picked it up again the other day and played around for a bit.

Oh ya, the upgrade system is endless, not even joking. I just found out some more upgrade options the other day that I never knew of before.
Ya, I pretty much praise this game.

Because, idio... I mean people, got there hopes up and than thrashed out towards a game that failed to meet their ridiculous expectations, from being so over hyped... Thats why.

Sorta like Halo 3.... I fear I have said to much

Crackdown if you can find it for $19.99
N+ will challenge you for a long time on XBLA... and might frustrate you

Maybe not strictly underrated but rather niche and fairly unknown, but basically anything by Paradox Interactive, e.g. the Europa Universalis and Hearts of Iron series. So amazingly good.

I agree in every regard but unless you a hard core strategy player their games will probably frighten you off

True, but that should be obvious to anyone checking them out out of curiosity. So yeah, if you consider empire building fun but find Total War's strategic system to be lacking in depth, go for Paradox. Conquer the world, but watch out for pretenders, be prepared for peasant rebels and keep an eye on your trading opportunities (or just check the ledger every year and adjust your autosend priorities accordingly).

Or if you're big on wargaming, try their Hearts of Iron series (there's a new installment coming out soon, I know I'm gonna buy it). Pick and choose cabinet ministers, direct technological research, ensure the safety of your supply convoys, keep track of your most experienced field marshals, set up strategic bombing campaigns, launch V2s and deploy your infantry, motorised infantry, mechanised infantry, mountain infantry, marines, paratroopers..... I'm going to stop now before this soapboxing becomes a strategasm.

One of the best games to ever exist, and no one know about it, had to be Cyborg Justice.
It was on the old Sega and was amazing. Two players would walk around with customized robots, destroy other robots by pulling off limbs, blasting with lasers, then put their limbs on your body or build them back together to destroy...

Honestly, what is more fun than that?

has nothing to do with being underrated, but battlefield 1943 from XBLA and PSN is both cheap and loads of fun
