Psychonauts, Beyond Good and Evil, Shin Megami Tensei; Nocturne, and Killer 7.
All not everyone's cup of tea, but fantastic games in my eyes.

No Jet Force Gemini? That game was one of Rare's best, and nobody ever got to play it because it wasn't advertised very well.
Eurgh... Jet Force Gemini was horrible. And no... no opinion for you!!

Grim Fandango?

Hearts of Iron 2
There's a sequel to Hearts of Iron?!

I loved Hearts of Iron 1..

Other than that, Okami. No, it did not sell well. Just ask Clover, a now dead studio. But hey, they turned into Platinum and instead gave us Mad World and will give us Bayonetta.
I bought Hearts of Iron, Hearts of Iron II and it's expansions Doomsday and Armageddon at Big Lots for $6. Even came with a medal that looks to be from the military but isn't, it has their logo on it.
Also I just now learned there is a third game in development. http://www.hoi3.com/ looks to be great with a simpler learning curve and 3D graphics.

Saints Row 2. It sold a decent amount, but for its quality it should've moved a lot more copies.
Quality and Saints Row 2 are two words that NEVER should be seen togheter. Sure it was fun and stuff. But it was glitchy as hell and was in bad need of some polishing

On topic, Psychonauts

I actually thought Psychonauts was kind of overrated (dodges incoming flames)
Someone who agrees with me, It was a good game but not this golden tresure people make it out to be.

Other than that I'd say Tales of Vesperia, but it's poor sales are only outside of Japan because it still isn't relesead in Europe ans in North America it wasn't that well advertised. Also Ico,Shawdow of the Colosus,the .Hacks and No more Heros. Maybe Legend of the mystical Ninja

Yep. Pretty heartbreaking this didn't sell very well. Incredible game.

Out of those I'd probably vote for Chronicles of Riddick. I guess people were sticking to the "Games based on films = shite" rule that is often so very true and missed out on a great game.

I really enjoy Psychonauts (still haven't finished it though), but I also think the Red Faction series tends to get overlooked. I recall people making a big deal about destructible environments and vehicles in the Halo franchise and I thought, "Wait. Didn't Red Faction do that several years ago?" then I went back to blasting Sopot's dogs.
