Top 5 Most Underrated Games of All Time

Gaming Irresponsibly writes, "Over the years, we have seen some great games. Most of us will always remember the big ones; Ocarina of Time, Metal Gear Solid, BioShock among many others. But each year, some great titles fall by the wayside."

indigo prophecy & eternal darkness are awesome!

..adding.. shadows of the damned & killer 7

[christheredhead]

i haven't gotten around to shadows of the damned yet but a definite yes to the remaining 3. most of the time the underrated games are the best games.

[Rchillis]

Shadows of the Damned was pretty good

[Fade_Walker]

I'm playing Shadows of the Damned right now. I don't know if it's my type of game yet. Needless to say though that Johnson is hilarious.

[nopunctuation]

Mirrors Edge was terrible.
Heavy Rain was better.

Only complaints really. Replace those with Demon Souls and LBP2 (cant convince any of my manly friends to play that).

[Venoxn4g]

How can LBP2 be underrated? it sold 1.45m already..

Mirrors edge was quite good, but I didn't like monotonone feeling, if it had a little bit more variety it could be allot times better..but sequel could improve that..

can't say anything about demon's souls because I didn't play it, but heard only good things..

and Indigo for me was better than Heavy rain (my opinion) ..for me it had more immerse story and I do like mystical things more than detective story..

[nopunctuation]

1.45m i not enough for such an innovative game. But the real reason I call it underrated is because whenever I bring it up with my gamer friends, they dismiss it thinking its a kiddy game and they are too old for it. I wish people could see otherwise because the game has so much more to offer when you look beyond the cute exterior.

[Ducky]

Having friends who have poor tastes in games isn't enough to justify a game being 'under-rated'
=p

[thrashermario]

vanquish

[Fade_Walker]

Granted that I did finish Vanquish in four hours, But it was the most action packed four hours.

[Rchillis]

I never played vanquish. I might have to check that out.

[SamPao]

its just awesome! I call it a gameplay masterpiece! never played something like it, its too short, of course, I finished it 3 times. but its great

[Hicken]

Legend of Dragoon deserves to be on that list.

[ReservoirDog316]

Kane and Lynch 2.

Yeah, I loved it. Not perfect but it must be the grittiest game ever.

[acemonkey]

shadows of the Damned and Enlaved

[Fade_Walker]

I picked up Indigo Prophecy on a whim when it first came out...worth every penny.

[CrimsonSaber]

off topic of 2k+ game era.
1.Jet Force Gemini (N64)
2.Battle Tanks Global Assualt(N64)
3. Army Men : Sarges Heroes (N64)
4. HD Remake by THQ of any Wcw Vs WWF from that time frame with current roster of wrestlers today
5. Remake of i cant remember the exact title of the real Red Faction (Sopots army) First Person Shooter style . Now those are long forgoten games that are underated

[NayThin]

Under-Rated or Under-Appreciated?
Both very different ideas.
I am going to guess you mean Under-Appreciated because all of the aforementioned games are mostly, very highly rated.
Fix title, please.
Also, you should probably add Bionic Commando. Or Spartan: Total Warrior.

[Lord_Sloth]

Chaos Legion
Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain
Tenchu Z
Monster Hunter
Resonance of Fate (If you're a true RPG fan you'll love it)
Dark Sector
Omega Boost
Evil Zone (Seriously, no1 even knows what the hell this is but it was awesome!)
Ehrgeiz
Drakengard

Overrated games
Call of Duty
Gears of War
Sports titles
God of War
Street Fighter IV
Halo
Half Life (yeah, I said it)
Portal
Mortal Kombat
Lords of Shadow (This game fucking sucks and you all know it! It's an embarrassment to the Castlevania franchise)

Notice that Portal, Half Life, and Mortal Kombat aren't BAD, just not as awesome as every1 says. Also, CoD fans just troll me to the point of detesting the game. "You don't like CoD!? You just suck at it! I'm a hardcore gamer because I play Call of Duty and not another fucking title!"

[zerocrossing]

Playing Resonance of Fate now and loving it!.

Evil Zone, I remember that game but its almost as if it never existed, nobody else seems to have heard of it =/

Omega Boost, Awesome game! Cost £50 compared to the average £40 when it came out over here though but so worth it.

Odin Sphere should be on the list of underrated games too, I love that game. Z.O.E 2 is pretty underrated, I know mostly everyone who's played it loves it but still its barely acknowledged, Blood Will Tell: Dororo, Its based on a old Manga and there's a Movie for it that was made a couple years ago too, If you ever see that game get it! Its awesome!

I agree with most of your overrated games too, Though I do like Half life a lot, I thought Lords of Shadow was a great game, but not a great Castlevania game...

singularity

[Venoxn4g]

actually it's one of the best shooters this gen for me :) great game.. I would like a sequel! :)

[r21]

A-freakin-gree.
but it was published by Activision aaaaand they are still stuck on CoD.

[Dakidog]

I clicked this article because of Indigo Prophecy...great game and that's why quantic dreams got my money for Heavy Rain(another great game).

Grandia needs more love!

[StrongMan]

Warhawk?

[Zechs34]

I actually think Blue Dragon was treated unfairly and very over looked, especially by Mistwalker's masterpiece Lost Odyssey. (The closest thing to a real Final Fantasy this gen by far)

[tiffac]

Eternal Darkness is the only title I didn't get a chance to play ^^;;

Indigo Prophecy could have been great if it wasn't for the later stages of the story where the hero became an X-Men. lol!

Mirror's Edge is the last FPS I played on a console. I wish we can see more of Faith in the future.

Lost Odyssey was awesome I actually cried during a couple of Kaim's memory stories. Truly a masterpiece.

Disgaea I'm still a fan I plan to get D3P for the PSV and D4 for the PS3. :3

[tarbis]

Valkyria Chronicles is one of those underrated games.

[Picnic]

Jet Set Radio / Future (DC / Xbox)
Luigi's Mansion
Outrun 2

[Dakidog]

Rival Schools!
