Top 10 Most Underrated Games

5) Front Mission 4

Front Mission 4 is a tactical roleplaying game featuring huge mechs called wanzers. If you think that titans in Titanfall seem powerful, then clearly you have never piloted a wanzer! Front Mission 4 was the first game in the series to be released on PlayStation 2 and one of the last iterations in the franchise to be completely tactics based. (The latest entry, Front Mission Evolved, is an action-oriented third person shooter that feels like a completely different game). Front Mission 4 did not sell or review well with critics. It has a 75 rating on Metacritic and sold just slightly over 500,000 copies worldwide.

Front Mission 4 is extremely complex which is what makes it so interesting. There are countless customization options from simply changing the color of your wanzer to changing various body parts for it like your arms, legs, or body. There were a ton of different weapons including sniper rifles, machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers, melee weapons, shields, and more. You had to carefully consider what to equip on your wanzer as weight was always an issue. You couldn't just load up everything you wanted; your wanzer had to have the proper legs and chassis to support that weight.

Front Mission 4 was definitely a must-own for any fan of games or anime with mecha in it.
