The best games only you know about

Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars.

Point and click. PC, GBA, and very recently, DS.

From the makers of Beneath a Steel Sky, and the Lure of the Tempress.

I like Two Worlds, I feel like when I was playing board game Talisman when I was a kid.

Future Cop:LAPD
A nifty little game where you play a police mech that transforms into a hovercar.
Plus, I still have not found a multiplayer experience like it.

I loved Nox, but I only know one other guy who's even heard of it.

I only ever played the demo, and loved it.

For me, it has to be Shadowflare (very similar game to Diablo...and NOX) and Haegemonia: Legions of Iron

This to, especially after it appeared on the PSN! Memories!

Freedom Fighters. Sign if you lplayed it, sig n if you loved it.

It's hardly unknown; they made three sequels.

Okay, you're right. Though those sequels were not really advertised, as far as I know.
And it's not been the same since 1 and 2...

M.U.L.E. Old turn-based strategy game for the Atari 800 where you attempt to colonize another planet; I seem to be the only one who remembers is.

Get your hovertanks into the enemy base and send him home crying like a baby!
Bases. Tanks. Points. Crying. Beautiful.

Also, Jade Cocoon 1 & 2. Both are among my top ten RPGs.

I'm surprised Touhou is yet to be mentioned. For those who don't know, it's a top-down vertical shooter with emphasis on dodging bullets more than anything. Hard, and nearly uncompletable even just on Normal modes, but they're still fun and rewarding games with excellent music and artwork. It gets my vote for an awesome game that not many people have played.

C-12: Final Resistance.

Did anyone actually play this game?

Played the demo. PS1 gaming was dying out by the time it was released though so I never found a copy in shops. Seemed like an awesome game though.

Croc and the legend of the gobos
That game was pure gold!

:O
you're the only other person ive ever met thats played that game!

Also, Silver, and Syphon filter: the omega strain

I did too .

 

[Just_Karol]

Medieval, that game was so very awesome but noone I've met besides my brother knows about it =(

SIR Daniel Fortesque! Yeah that game was pretty class. I cheated to get all the weapons and Chalices, then I felt bad and got them the honest way straight after completing it!

I have a special place in my heart for Rayman 2 and Team Buddies (Anyone).
Also legend of the Mystical ninja for the super nintendo??

Tsugani: Atonement

Far out that game is amazing.

I miss it

it was on ps2

kudos for anyone who has played it

 

[UnearthedArcana]

Touhou

I fucking love Touhou. I have everything up to and including Imperishable Night, and it's the reason I bought a wired 360 controller (works great with a gamepad).

 

[matnatz]

Vagrant Story

Also, there are very few games in this thread that I haven't played. Croc kicked arse.

 

[UnearthedArcana]

I'll chip in again with Silent Bomber. It's a great PS1 action game where your character has these bomb-launcher things attached to his arms, and attacks by attaching bombs to enemies and detonating them.

Fuck yes, Touhou is awesome.

I will agree that the music in the Touhou games are amazing, most notably pieces such as Native Faith which are so complicated that they're practically impossible to play on a real piano (ZUN himself called it "piano hell"). The artwork, however, is ummmm...

Osu!

It's like Elite Beat Agents, but played with a mouse, and with way more songs. Also, it's free.

 

[Lenny Magic]

Warlords: Battlecry 3, the only RTS that is so entertainingly bad it is awesome. But what really makes it special is that it allows you to build everything right from the get go.

Alas no one shall feel its power except me and my brother.

 

[Napalm_Man]

Cave Story no one i know personally has heard of this game.
