Top 10 Most Underrated Games
8) Alan Wake
Alan Wake is probably one of the most well-received games on this list in terms of review scores (it has an 83 on Metacritic) but based on the fact it was supposed to be one of the biggest blockbuster titles for the Xbox 360, it still qualifies as underrated. For a game that took over five years to develop, it didn't sell all that great. According to numbers from VGChartz, Alan Wake only sold 600,000 copies in North America and about 1.25 million copies worldwide. Not bad, but not what was to be expected from the game and not what it should have earned. This game was good enough to fulfill expectations and should have sold much better than it did.
Alan Wake provided 360 gamers with a much-needed breath of fresh air from the constant FPS releases. Alan Wake focused on story over combat – something games rarely do anymore. The story was full of interesting twists and turns and gamers could easily relate to the main character who was just an everyday dude.
Alan Wake was also one of the first video games to use a live action miniseries as a way of promoting the game. The six episodes of “Bright Falls” have received millions of views on YouTube.
Hello? Where's Psychonauts?
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness and Sky are all severely underrated; One of IGN's reviewers gave a poor review of the game which demoted the initiative to play the game, however why is it a fact that so many other people who have played this game, criticized the IGN reviewer and loved the game? It's because it's so good in every aspect.
PMD explorers of sky was the 2nd best pokemon game to me dude its super cool for me atleast
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. The most underrated video game of all time, it's literally the best RPG I have ever play, for countless reasons. An underrated masterpiece.
Kay ham ahase game dounlod nahi kar sakte he.......
The SNES Shadowrun was better than the FPS Shadowrun. It was significantly closer to the tabletop game
I disliked that Adam Wake basically had a final boss about as difficult to deal with as the normal enemies. It was still a decent game, just the final boss was a real let down
Dragon's Dogma is terribly underrated. You literally can't trust the reviews, because most of them are made up. No fast travel, too hard, and nonsensical story are just some of the lies being told about it. I'll admit there are some flaws, and no multiplayer just doesn't make sense, because the foundation for it is there. However, it's still one of the best games I've played.
Unfortunately, Capcom made a jerk move by making Bitterblack Isle non - downloadable. The only way to purchase it is to buy the Dark Arisen addition, and that includes the original game. Then they advertised, "Includes the original Dragon's Dogma" on the box like it's a good thing. The game was being dished before Bitterblack Isle was announced, and this definitely didn't help. Also, Bitterblack Isle is worth buying (unless you already payed full price for the original). It adds much needed difficulty and some cool boss fights.
I heard a rumor about a sequel. I don't think it's possible, but I hope I'm wrong.
Just recently finished replaying LoD. Nostalgia plays a big aspect into this game. Looking back it was fantastic, now its somewhat painful to play. It was a product of its time and like many other games it did not age well while still others did.
LoD is a best RPG besides FF. every RPG fan will loved it
Lost Odyssey is a truly amazing game. One I've played and replayed numerous times. Has a great story with characters who are engaging and believable. The Thousand Years of Dreams gives good insight into the memories of Kaim and each story is amazingly well written.
LoD!! AMAZING Game!
Lost Odyssey is the most mature JRPG in terms of story..i think i will go back play the game again
Legend of the Dragoon was my FAVORITE game (besides Jet Moto and Twisted Metal 2) for PS1. Challenging, tons of side quests, great soundtrack, great gear, superb plot line, unforgettable boss battles. Loved it through and through. Im glad you're giving it the respect it deserves. Thank you.
Shadowrun was a great game
