9 most overlooked and underrated games of June and July

EX: "Video games are an expensive hobby, particularly if you're a cash-strapped college student who enjoys Modern Warfare 2 marathons and World of Warcraft raids as much as Friday night pub crawls and weekend fraternity parties. Understandably, as a result, it's necessary to be discriminatory when selecting which titles are worth dropping $60 bucks on. More times than not, these games end up being the high profile projects, the ones that are not only top-tier in quality, but highly popular due to rave reviews and tons of marketing."

Persona 3 -- definitely overlooked. My gamestop had two copies.
Singularity -- overlooked. Don't remember seeing one ad for it.
Limbo -- Eh. Too early to call. Looks awesome.
Naughty Bear -- Thought it sucked.
Toy Story 3 -- Too kiddy for my taste.

MxShade5030d ago

A few decent games on here, but nothing that screams buy me except, maybe, Persona 3 Portable.

raztad5030d ago

P3P = 93 on metacritic. It is a must play, recommended even if you played the PS2 version.

killyourfm5030d ago

To me the most glaring is Singularity. I'm constantly amazed at how fun and imaginative this game is, and stunned that Activision left it to die.

SeanRL5030d ago

You're stunned that Activision let one of their games die, really?

Baltis5030d ago (Edited 5030d ago )

Limbo looks hot to me. It does. Style and animations are very slick. But even if they weren't, everyone would swing from its sack because it's 2-d and people think anything retro, simple and throwback = epic!!!!

It's absurd to think this way but this is the mind of the delusional, one dimensional gamer. It's like that one game where you play as a condom in a woman's vagina. Everyone is swinging on that games sack and it's stupid. For what? Why? Because it deals with a taboo topic and it's 2-d, throwback/retro. Gamers are predictable.

MMFGaming5030d ago

The one where you're supposed to shoot sperm and keep HIV from getting past you?

That game was actually kinda addicting, haha.

Lavalamp5030d ago

Persona 3 definitely deserves more recognition. I'd also like to add Blazblue: Continuum Shift to that list. I think it'll slip under a lot of people's radars when it's released later in the month.

I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.

EvertonFC64d ago (Edited 64d ago )

Fantastic game,.so underated

Cacabunga64d ago

Yes great game spec ops! Since the time we’ve been asking sony to make one:/

Auto Modelista.. a PS2 capcom racer!! A blast to play and great graphics!
Maximo!
Rival Schools!

LordoftheCritics64d ago

Spec Ops: The Line was super dark.

Incredible story.

SheenuTheLegend64d ago

all the games in the above list are bang on. this is the only reason we need backwards compatibility and physical presense of games for the upcoming future, no matter what.

Yi-Long65d ago

Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.

melons65d ago

yes! incredible rain effects; so good to drive along in rain with your Spotify playlist blaring

Skuletor64d ago

I really wanted a MotorStorm using the same engine, Driveclub is easily one of the best looking games on PS4 and I'm surprised they didn't even give it a PS4 Pro patch.

ravens5264d ago

Yes indeed. May just install it on my PS5. You know, physical copy and all.

monkey60264d ago

I adored Driveclub and the Bike expansion. I also loved Motorstorm. Evolution shutting down was a crime

Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.

Skuletor64d ago

I have quite a few of these. Timed licenses suck.

Terry_B64d ago (Edited 64d ago )

wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.

Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
