Heroes of Might and Magic IV


I played it with my best friend for years, we both agreed it was superior to III.
Later I heard people think it svcks.

Rollcage. Perhaps not so much disliked as under the radar. It is my favorite racing game, even better than Burnout and NFS Underground.


This. Though i mostly played the second game. Very fun game. A shame that it, like G-Police and Colony Wars didn't survive. But atleast Wipeout did ^_^

For some reason I really like Sacred 2, the only thing that game is missing is a character creation. Other then that I loved the game, Diablo loot set, huge world to explore, decent music.

Dragon Age 2
Alpha Protocol
Dynasty Warriors series
Army Of Two (maybe not "amazing" but good fun)

And probably a few others I've forgotten.

I also love Sacred 2. Although the MQ is completely silly and incoherent, it's a great game; and the elven and human zones in particular are wonderfully atmospheric. There should be more games that have that level of silliness!

I thought Crimson Skies on the first Xbox was awesome. None of my friends got into it and it seemed that it should have gotten more attention then it did imo. They never came out with sequel so I guess not many people really liked it.

Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge is still the best flying game I have ever played. Apparently a new one has been promised by the creators. Blazing Angels 2 is the only flying game I have ever played that has come close to being as fun as Crimson Skies.

I LOVED CRIMSON SKIES.

*ahem* ...Excuse me....

And I'd have to add to the list Enchanted Arms. While the plot and some of the design choices were silly, I loved the battle system and the character management system. Both were very fun and unique.

Legend of Dragoon. I thought it was awesome, one of the best I've played.

And the other way around? Vagrant Story. Everybody tells me how amazing that game was, but I hate it.

Red Orchestra 2 - I consider it the best FPS game of the last 5 years, yet i've heard so much hate and criticism from other players.


I've heard that it's good, I loved the first one, I'm thinking about getting RO2 next year or sometime in december.

Prototype.

Having never played a 'superhero-sim' before, the game delivered on pretty much everything I was expecting. Disheartening, since GI put in a "Most Disappointing Games" list.


What? But Prototype is amazing.

I really enjoyed the first Fable game (I haven't played the others).
And why are so many people mentioning Oblivion, it's a great game.
I'd like to mention Morrowind and Daggerfall, most people I've met think they are ok/bad. Mainly because of graphics and animations (hurr durr)

Deadly Premonition. I`m playing through it again on hard because i love the game. It didn`t do great on original release and is pretty much a cult game but I just love lots of things about it, the humour, characters, dialogue etc.

Yeah, pretty good. I especially loved how those voice actors that read the religious texts sounded like they really believed it :lmao:

I tried to replay a year ago, but NPCs made three polygons? Even FFVII looked better :yucky:

Condemned: Criminal Origins


That and it's sequel are two of my all time favourite games.

Alpha Protocol. It had tons of issues, sure, from bad design decisions to bugs, but overall I still enjoyed it.



Alpha Protocol. It is flawed, but still quite underrated.


Alpha Protocol is a great game.


Oblivion is awesome and (in my opinion) much better than Morrowind, it gets too much flak. :(

I've always wanted to try that. Is it scary at all?
