Vietcong- Played it for years, one of the best on-line multi-player experiences I had. and it got a freaking 6.9...

What's yours?

Also Enclave..

Far Cry 2. Secretely it's an awesome game. Hilarious too. Just look at it like a cheesey action cartoon that takes itself a bit too seriously.

Otogi and Otogi 2. It's basically if you took devil may cry and replaced all the immature/trying too hard stuff with Okami. Amazing atmosphere. And Otogi 2 has one of the coolest-looking final bosses of all time.

I was such a big fan of the first Far Cry because it had a simple compelling 90's action story..But Far Cry 2 didn't have a story..It had an opening, then I just felt like a small kid with a gun that someone forgot in the middle of Africa..

I tried to enjoy it, It had potential but I just couldn't finish it..

That actually sounds cool, never heard of that one. I'd love to read about it, got a link for me?

Unreal Tournament 3, it had a wealth of characters and stages. Plus it combined the raw violence of Gears of War with the frantic pace of a FPS. And I loved the Warfare mode.

Two Worlds.
It has its faults, but most of them are aethetic. Hell, after playing so long, the bad dailogue is no longer apparent.
Plus you can actually join the bad guy in the end. (Though neither ending is canon in Two Worlds 2)

You will make me smile if you know where that screen shot is from. And of course, Freelancer, blah blah blah, fanboy, fanboy, fanboy.

 

[hidekipooj]

Not a favorite but the most recent one that comes to my mind is ''Ghost Trick'' on the DS

 

[hypovolemia]

I don't know if they are actually underrated, but I'd pick Odin Sphere and Elite Beat Agents.

Edit: And although I'm still pretty much at the beginning, Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors.

My only problem with Unreal 3 is that it took a game called "Unreal" and gave it "realistic, gritty brown graphics" Beautiful none the less but it pulled me away from the game. I loved 2003 and 2004- the Sci Fi design brought out the best of it (I think).

Played it, Indeed it has flaws but I understand you completely

Would that be Streets of SimCity, perchance? It has been a life age since I've played it, but I think my memory is still moderately good.

If it is, for sure, that game was fun and most people never have heard of it.

Otherwise, my thought is Final Fantasy Tactics

Here's the metacritic page for Otogi 2 - you can really start with either one since they basically just have the outlines of a plot anyway

Mirror's edge!

I completely agree.

I'd say Izuna Legend of the Ninja, I've never heard anyone even mention it but it's pretty awesome.

I've never actually played that one, but any game that lets you basically create your own free-form spells is awesome in my book haha.
