The Five Most Under Appreciated Video Games of 2014

Ray Porreca of Entertainment Buddha writes: "Be it due to a more niche genre, lesser known development teams and publishers, or having an unfortunate release window within the shadow of a blockbuster title, these games represent the best – and most under appreciated – video game releases of 2014.

Interesting list.

[HAMM3RofBUDDHA]

Freedom Wars!

[Kal-V3]

"For the Greater Good"

[SmokingMonkey]

I really want Transistor and Freedom Wars.

But the second I buy Transistor BOOM free on PS+!

[Lionalliance]

Freedom Wars is awesome! People need to play it!

[tacotruck]

It's great that people are enjoying Freedom Wars, although it certainly demands more attention than it has gotten. Hopefully PSTV sales will bring it to a bigger audience in the future.

[NotAfanBoyy]

Freedom Wars, like many PS Vita *exclusives* isn't compatible with the PS TV.

Freedom Wars does in fact work with PSTV.

Wolfenstein.

[WeAreLegion]

That was the one nobody expected anything from, but then everyone loved it, so they wouldn't shut up about it for a month.

[NeoGamer232]

Wolfenstein definitely deserved lot more publicity and sales. The 16+ hour campaign was spectacular!

[theshredded]

the evil within,wolfenstein,AC unity(yes),MGSV Ground zeroes & D4 are at the top of my list

[OtakuDJK1NG-Rory]

Freedom Wars was entirely Sony fault

[Inception]

And Bayonetta 2 and Fatal Frame V very low sales are entirely Nintendo fault.

[OtakuDJK1NG-Rory]

Fatal Frame V sales were on par with other entry.

Nintendo marketed Bayonetta 2 in US and EU.

Sony didn't for Freedom Wars. I have the game been playing it.

Geez u fanboys love getting defensive.

[captainexplosion]

Not sure why getting so many disagrees. You are entirely correct.

[ShadowWolf712]

Freedom Wars in an awesome game. If you don't play it, you're missing out.

[TM333]

I've been playing a little Freedom Wars here and there, and I'm constantly amazed. It looks amazing, has great gameplay, and I really dig the story. And, that humor...

[Scatpants]

Transistor is one of the best games I played this year. Not really getting into Freedom Wars though. Probably just not my type of game.

[LightDiego]

Transistor is great, i still need to play Freedom Wars, looks awesome.
I really liked Earth Defense Force 2025, it's another under appreciated game from this year.

[Inception]

Completely agree with the list. But it needs Drakengard 3, Valkyria Chronicles, and Deception 4. Those are also most under appreciated video games of this year.

[HentaiMasterRace]

Freedom Wars without a doubt.

[captainexplosion]

Ratchet and Clank Collection on Vita, Borderlands 2 on Vita, PvZ Garden Warfare, and Sunset Overdrive were all under-appreciated imo.

[DualWielding]

Neptunia Rebirth

[paul-p1988]

Freedom Wars is my favourite game of 2014, such an under-appreciated game on an much under-appreciated handheld!
