Underrated Gems We Unexpectedly Fell In Love With

[@VivaLaVeritas1]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate that awesome indie developer that got Hollie's Vita back? Seriously, wow. Faith in humanity restored. What a nice dude. That's a real life hero. Also, really underrated game I love: Bastion. Everyone should have played it. Go and play it now if you haven't!

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I will once I beat .hack//G.U. Last Recode. I already downloaded Bastion. :D

[@ReillyQuizzle]

Bastion Metacritic = 89% PC Gamer = 92% Steam = 10/10 Sold half a million copies in the first year and millions more in subsequent years. I'm not sure "underrated" is the term you're looking for.

[@deathbykonami5487]

@@AlmightyPolarBear .hack// G.U. is an underrated gem and more people should play it. I have Last Recode as well and I love it. "SKEITH!!!!!!!"

[@Dave_ja_vu]

I would say Transistor would be Bastion's underrated little brother.

[@MrSlenderTrees]

Rob mentioning Nathan aging and having a bad back is making me acutely aware of my own age! I remember watching the episodes with Nathan's Park-orner when I was at uni! Still loving everything the channel is doing all these years later. Thanks guys!

[@stuartturner3517]

I got a Vita a few months ago and I would say it's an underrated gem of a console. Glad you got yours back Hollie.

[@aSinisterKiid]

Holly I've always respected you for your knowledge about the games you play, because you keep up with things like the composers and development team involved. It shows a great appreciation not only for the game but all the important people who had a part in creating the magic the keeps up enthralled in the experience. I always look forward to yours and Robs stories. I love your passion for gaming, it's contagious. Additionally, just wanted to say your makeup is bang-on flawless.

[@BiddlyBongDebo]

Good god, any further up her arse and you'd be coming out of her throat.

[@Incoherent-excitement]

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is my under rated game that I love. It came out around the time of Skyrim and I think just got overlooked and then the publisher went bust I think so any plans of a sequel went out the window. Shame, it’s a really interesting world.

[@ireneparkin3360]

Emma Jane I agree, if Skyrim was released at the end of 2012 instead of 2011, Big Studio 38 wouldn't have gone bust and we would be wandering around in a sequel.

[@ireneparkin3360]

bettergetdave it's not backwards compatible with the PS4 at the moment, but it may be in the future.

[@PlayStationAccess]

I LOVED that game, like Dragons Dogma it never got the honours it deserved at launch :( - Hollie

[@caspergustavsson4240]

I know I’m 4 years late to the party, but Prey 2017 is such an awesome game and I don’t think it gets nearly enough praise just because it ended being called Prey and people expected something else.

[@Social_sin]

This is why Rob is one of my favs! Jade Cocoon lovers unite, use your wiley UK charm and i'll use my Canadian politness to get them to make a part 3! Although you do need to play the full non-demo disc magic that is the OG Jade Cocoon.

[@nihilrix3495]

Rob you really need to play Jade Cocoon 1, if you liked the second one then you'll definitely love the first one. The soundtrack, the voice acting, the characters, the combat system, catching & raising your monsters, everything is phenomenal.

[@leemorgan8541]

The Jade Cocoon was the Cocoon "Mahbu" was traped inside during the first Jade Cocoon. Loved both games, great to see them getting some love. Rob please play the first Jade Cocoon, it's my all time favourite game.

[@marielyne3115]

"This War of Mine". I've played through every scenario and still do one at random every month or so.

[@jakebaigent7582]

Marie-Lyne sooo gooood. They have a new, more ambitious game coming out as well. Keen as a bean!

[@sun2shadow]

Jade cocoon 2! I loved that game, miss it so much. Really did not expect anyone to bring that up. Wow. Glad there was someone else out there that loved it as much as me 😀

[@wadud92]

Transistor. Brilliant game. Awesome story, awesome gameplay, awesome sound design. Brilliant. Everyone loves Bastion, that is what everyone talks about when it comes to Supergiant. But Transistor is in a league of its own imo

[@Szczauqa]

M Wadud i still listen to the soundtrack. Iiiiii woooooooonnnnt saaaaaveee yooooooouuuuu

[@wadud92]

Szczaqu Spine of the World is my personal favourite

[@devilgames2217]

M Wadud Pyre > all

[@Szczauqa]

DevilGames nyeeeh

[@RagnarokMic]

For me, it's Bastion all the way. I'm glad they gave Transistor away in PS+ one month, because it was my enjoyment of that which led me to Bastion, which was an instant favorite for me.

[@deJanglez]

jade cacoon 1 is one of my favorite games of all times.

[@Krioux3]

First off, thank you Hollie for showing the Vita some love! I wish you guys would talk about it more often, the fact that a lot of games you buy online can be played on both your PS4 and VIta with cross share saving is so underrated! Second, I highly recommend that people look at the game Contrast, it was a surprise gem that I happened to play and adored it!

[@Leaglestalon]

you was speaking about car fighting type games I still have a great love for "vigilante 8" and "Vigilante 8 2nd offense". Both wonderful drive, battle type, game with story , characters with personality, 2 player battle, destructible maps..these I wish to this day could be remade to ps4 or even xbox..

[@CaribouKH]

Have to shout out Dan Bull's Mad Max rap: "When we hop in the vehicle I call shotgun.. that's not a metaphor, mate I've actually got one"

[@patdo777]

I'm always happy when Hollie mentions her love for the Vita because many people seem to have forgotten how good it is, including game devs as there are very few games coming out for it anymore.

[@Delta3354]

My underrated gem so far is Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.

[@amandarodden4816]

that might be the most perfect underated game ever.

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I still have to play that, I got it for my Xbox 360.

[@Yuri87]

The first Nier doesn't ever get any love. That's so sad

[@shaunking23689]

Jesús de la Fuente now that is a good shout

[@mulleolsen]

WE NEED A REMAKE

[@daanthedoctor]

I love it so much

[@jeffpasito8245]

Malthe Olsen *rolls eyes*

[@deathbykonami5487]

Played the first Nier, but it wasn't on the ps3 in the west The PS3 version was Nier Replicant and I believe that one was only available in Japan

[@nickbraet7493]

Nate is spot on with the John Carpenter reference! Dying Light is exactly his style. Nice catch!

[@drewkennedy5575]

The jade cocoons were, for lack of a better term, the pokeballs of the series. You used them for catching and I think housing your monsters.

[@akminds52]

A video came out, it was underrated, now a remastered video is out. Kudos PS Access. :P

[@davidmuzzall375]

Dave Mad Max was SO GOOD totally agree on it being underrated gem, i was so obsessed with that game I 100% cleared the whole map in a week and now I’m one trophy from the platinum,

[@iamdark1988]

Oceanhorn reminds me of a Net Yaroze title. Rob's choice is perfect as I've recently finished Jade Cocoon 1 after having it since release.

[@original4934]

Dying Light and Mad Max blew my expectations away.

[@Thehulksterbeast]

Daniel Phillips who would have thought zombies and parkour would be so good

[@FootballClubDavid_WI_USA]

How was the FPS climbing up walls? Was is like (poor) Mirrors Edge Catalyst and Titan Fall 2? Or was it what those games mechanic should have been?

[@seiimeiigaming]

Jade Caccoon 2 is the reason I bought another ps2 after not having one for years. Best game ever. Rob knows what's up 👌

[@BigCowProductions]

Breath of Fire 3 is mine. Some more hardcore RPG fans may know of it, but it is definitely underrated.

[@kjs9008]

funny coming from a guy like me who usually like's dark brutal games like the soulsborne series and salt and sanctuary or epic fantasy rpgs like skyrim, but I actually quite liked Fat Princess Adventures. It made me laugh quite a few times, it had somewhat of a character creation/customization, and fast paced action combat. It did okay with reviews, but I still think it is underrated, and I definitely didn't expect to like it as much as I did.

[@PlayStationAccess]

There is something to be said about trying new games. Picking up something that you'd never normally considering 'your thing' can be tricky or off-putting but if you enjoy it it's like opening up a whole new world. Good on you for giving it a try! - Hollie

[@dominiccampbell181]

Jade Cocoon sounds like a Playstation version of Pokemon, but with a more in depth breeding section.

[@Meowten]

Earth defense force is what made me buy myself PS2, PS3, and my PS4. And I mean you probably haven't even heard about it.

[@kazzIsTheName]

I really loved playing Jade Cocoon 1 back in the day. I Remember Hating the second game because it is so different from the first.

[@CallumMyers1995]

Gravity Rush 1 & 2, SteamWorld Dig 1 & 2, The Metro 2033 games and Catherine are great games that deserves more love :) p.s I said this before the video got deleted re-uploaded

[@mononophoenix2752]

Yeah, gravity rush is amazing.

[@lewisconnor919]

Callum Myers The metro games aren’t the most popular games ever but they are very Highly rated. Metro 2033 got 8s and Metro last light got 9s. And hopefully Metro Exodus gets a lot of Tens. It’s going to be a battle for game of the year this year. God of war Red dead Redemption 2 Metro Exodus Monster Hunter World And there is also Vampyr which might be a surprise.

[@CallumMyers1995]

Lewis Connor yeah I was thinking about how Metro doesn’t get as much attention as COD or Battlefield so that’s why I think it’s a bit underrated. Also Titanfall 2 was underrated

[@DJAB87]

Love the gravity rush games to death. Been a fan since it was originally on Vita. It's so clever how the game lets you manipulate gravity to fly everywhere. Also Kat is a precious treasure. 😉

[@jaxnotreal]

Lewis Connor God Of War won’t get GOTY, it’s good but it’s not GOTY worthy

[@HigherPlainGames]

Shadow Hearts (all of them), Live Wire, Devil Dice, Remember Me and El Shaddai are my picks 😀

[@Ragefat]

The Shadow Hearts series is so good and so underrated.

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I am glad Shadow Hearts is getting more attention. :D

[@deathbykonami5487]

The reel system takes some effort to git gud at, but when you do it's so invigorating Not to mention the transformations were ahead of their time, and we really need a remake of the whole series (even 3 even if it wasn't as good as the first two)

[@rawesome1000]

i love these videos cuz it just feels like they are hanging out in my living room while im doing the dishes n random house work.

[@Shade23]

Jade cocoon 1 is phenomenal, one of my all time favorite RPGs. I didn't even know there was a 2nd one.

[@evildrganymede]

I thought Mad Max was brilliant - the story was good, the characters were good, the world was amazing, the combat was great... really loved it!

[@kayce851]

Mad Max is definitely a good PSN freebie, but it's a mediocre title. It has a pretty bad case of Open World Syndrome. The problem with Mad Max lies in how few ways you can interact with the game world. They came up with about 5 different things for you to do in the world and just dotted the landscape with those 5 things 20-50 times. For other cases of OWS, see Mass Effect Andromeda, or the Patient Zero for OWS, Assassin's Creed 1.

[@evildrganymede]

kayce851 gee, thanks for pointing out how wrong I am for really enjoying a game that you don't like. I don't know where I'd be without your words of wisdom.

[@kayce851]

It's an alright game. The car combat and upgrading the Opus is pretty fun. The fisticuffs were essentially ported from the Arkham/Shadow of Mordor so they were solid if not a little stale. I'm not saying you're wrong, I had some fun with the game. I'm just calling an egg an egg. I don't like seeing open world games that don't put enough focus on content and interactivity. If Red Dead 2 was as sparse as Mad Max I'd take a bit of a dump on that too. I'm just warning others about what they're getting into. It's nowhere near as bad as original Assassin's Creed (which was a tech demo more than a game).

[@evildrganymede]

Well they were asking what our favourite underrated gems were. I agreed with them about Mad Max and I really enjoyed it myself - what you think are its flaws didn't affect my enjoyment of it. But I don't think it's even really an open world RPG - games like Fallout or Skyrim (which I think are open world RPGs) are different beasts to games like Assassin's Creed, Shadow of Mordor, and Mad Max - so I think you're trying to put it in the wrong box to start with and then criticising it for not being that.

[@kayce851]

I'm not at all comparing it to a Bethesda game. If they were trying to make Mad Max: Skyrim it'd probably be great because Skyrims come along so infrequently. Mad Max is a victim of being the 25th game of this type in the last decade after The Arkhams, Assassins Creeds, Farcrys and what have you. This is a genre that has been done to death and is in dire need of innovation. I'm not going to give Mad Max a pass for being decent in a stale genre. They should've put way more emphasis on what made Mad Max unique, the car combat, and way less on punching stuff (I felt like I spent 90% of my time in combat punching things). More enemy vehicle variety, more vehicle combat options, like boarding to disable enemy vehicle parts while AI drives the Opus, more vehicle weapons with loadouts for give/take strategy to produce a deeper system that wasn't just remove armor, harpoon wheel. Combine this with more scripted and meaningful unscripted vehicle combat (besides caravans) and we'd have something. Or they could've done something other than what AC/Arkham/Shadows of Mordor did with combat to make it feel more fresh (Horizon did a good job with this).

[@benjaminsheppard5149]

Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess for me. I will never understand how people can't love it. It was the best Zelda game hands down.

[@amandarodden4816]

benjamin sheppard: Sorry dude but how is twilight princess underated? its got top tier reviews everywhere.

[@benjaminsheppard5149]

Call it personal experience from being surrounded by friends who kept saying how horrible it was. Utter idiots all them right? I loved it.

[@amandarodden4816]

Yep, u probably should get new friends lol. Its a great game.

[@SkateAndLive1]

Steambot chronicles has to be my most loved underrated game, never met anyone who’s even heard of it let alone played it! You play this guy who wakes up on a beach not knowing who you are/where you came from/where you are etc. In the middle of this war, and as you progress you start gaining access to these steambots which you can customise and fight other steambots! This game was so good, anyone who reads this has to check it out since it was a solid 15 out of 10 when I played it

[@Taylorcarmad]

My underrated game is Gladius for the Ps2. Dispite being released in 2001 it’s still my most played game today and the sole reason I play my ps2 more than my PS4 today. The story is a bit meh and the quests aren’t much, but the combat is fantastic. It’s a turn based game with a grid and facing system, swing meters, class and different types within these classes. In fact, I’ve got so good at the game over the years I have to apply cheats to up the difficulty or purposefully hinder myself on playthroughs. This was the first game I got into because of my dad about thirteen years ago and I know it inside out, every move, every swing meter, I have my set gladiator school of 16 (there’s a limit of twenty but why get what you don’t need). I’ve played the last of us, all mass effects, halo, Star Wars battle front 2 (the ps2 version of course), numerous final fantasies, the new xcom series and horizon zero dawn to name a few but nothing holds a candle to Gladius for me, and probably nothing ever will.

[@eskimoking37]

I can’t believe Jade Cocoon got a mention! Amazing!

[@virus640]

Vagrant Story. No else I know knows it even exists, and I've only heard it mentioned here and on a "top 10 square games that aren't final fantasy" list

[@D_2_da_K87]

Candlejack brilliant game.

[@SKBoa]

Man I really loved Jade Cocoon back in the day, the first one is definitely the better! Most underrated for me... hmm... maybe Galerians for the ps1, I dont know if you can call it underrated, but it is so damn well made, but almost no one knows about it :/ Also: Ronin Blade, the spiritual successor to the Onimusha series, was a great game. I loved it as a kid, but no one seems to remember it.

[@stuartbishop95]

Summoner on PS2. Fantastic story with some great twists, and a pretty satisfying combat system. Sequel was pretty good too.

[@DanFarrell98]

Starhawk would be my pick, it had an awesome multiplayer and it was just so fun to play. Also the 2 Prototype games

[@xarrox123]

Madmax looks amazing! Played heaps of Jade Cocoon 2, great game! Played the demo of JC1 over and over as well. Seemed nice but there where always higher priority games. Nathan's parkour was hilarious. :D Also, love Holly's story of her vita, so happy she got it back!

[@jakebaigent7582]

Also rob, you need to play jade cocoon 1. It's one of the best rpg's on ps1 with cutscenes by none other than Studio Ghibli, long before ni no kuni.

[@rhisccth4094]

Jade Cocoon! Love it. Now Ideally want to dig out my PS2.

[@wuebboltc]

I picked up Aegis of Earth: Protonovus Assault about a month ago despite knowing nothing about it. I fell in love with it -- it's a genuinely great game. I even got the platinum for it! Can't understand why I've never heard anyone talk about it before....

[@themarchinggoblin8294]

Chris Wuebbolt yeah man it's great! It's kinda hard for me cause I'm colourblind. Picked it up like a year ago dead cheap. Still not beat but it's great

[@jakebaigent7582]

Literally never heard of it but now I've put in some research it sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.

[@flyingthund3rgod943]

[@rhysmyatt5136]

Deju vu anyone? Mine was the getaway, it may of gone over shadowed by vice City but having a gta game in London was amazing.

[@jeremyroberts8822]

Rhys Myatt dang I forgot about those games I remember I played a bunch of the sequel getaway: black Monday

[@kws2534]

I don't have a game but a series: Legacy of Kain. I loved ALL those games! Soul Reaver 2 was the absolute favorite and still has one of my favorite and best HOLY HELL ending ever. I'd kill for Square to release the entire series in one collection. I don't even care about remastering them to run in 1080p or anything like this. I just want to play this criminally underrated gem of a series! ...except maybe Blood Omen 2. Even I can admit that one was a bit rough.

[@mappybc6097]

kws2534 Great shout out. Hands down the best characters and story that Amy Hennig has ever made. Funny thing, I just recently finished Shadow of the Colossus remake, and my first thoughts were about how incredibly awesome would it be to see The pillars of Nosgoth, The tomb of the Serafan or the Spectral realm in general, remade with the same care and passion.

[@AdrianVillagomez1]

I would love a remaster for current gen consoles. One of my all time favourite series I own all the figures, loved those games.

[@kayce851]

Yes. Yes. Yes. This would absolutely be my answer too. I adored the series, a great story from Amy Hennig, and perhaps the best early voice work in gaming from Simon Templeman, Micheal Bell, and Tony Jay. You're right about Blood Omen 2, there were some interesting ideas in there, but man the execution was clunky as hell (skip that one folks). It's a shame the IP is more or less dead (though Nosgoth came out on PC, it wasn't originally designed as a LoK game and has no narrative). I'd love for there to be a revival of the series. As cool as it'd be to get remasters, I simply don't have time to replay an old game like that when there's so much good new stuff. I have a few games I bought months ago, still in plastic, waiting for me to finish God of War.

[@RagnarokMic]

My all time favorite gaming mythology, so crushed we never got a proper conclusion for Kain as we did Raziel.

[@garciahotspur1914]

Shadows of The Damned!!! I love this game bruv like so much😍😍😍😍😍😍!!!

[@GlasgowMick89]

Yeah that was awesome. Platinumed it too, which you need to finish it 3 times for the difficulty trophies. Wish they made a sequel because it was going somewhere at the end.

[@evirobtion]

Good choice. I also like Lollipop Chainsaw and Killer is Dead.

[@deathbykonami5487]

Garcia F*****g Hotspur is an absolute badass

[@jornsyy]

I recently bought 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors and Virtues Last Reward from The Nonary Games series on sale and fell in love with them. Still finishing all 20+ endings of the latter game and am still enjoying the ever expanding story.

[@timothyharris3870]

u really must try Jade caccoon 1 I had the same demo u had but it's went and got it. loved it

[@timothyharris3870]

I had to have itafter the demo, found it in thrift store,

[@MarcelArtsCW]

Mine is still "Alundra", got it from a resale shop ages ago and played it over and over. Oh the nostalgia. It was my jade cocoon 2 (which I also owned, but didn't enjoy it as much as Rob)

[@stevenendersby8442]

I actually played Jade Cacoon 1 and it was absolutely nuts.....truly.

[@daanthedoctor]

Original NieR deserves more attention!! That's the only game that's made me cry multiple times, and I've played some pretty emotional games before. Also, the characters are all amazing and unique.

[@chrisk4706]

YES ROB! Jade cocoon 1 and 2 were amazing.

[@SuperBeardWill]

Finally someone who actually knows and likes jade Cocoon! Definitely play through the first one Rob, only thing I don't like about jc2 is the slightly childlike cutscenes you can't skip. Other than that I've invested many an hour into these and can't recommend them to people more

[@KizaHayes]

Yonder: Cloud Catcher Chronicles for me.

[@dakotatownsend1193]

Hollie's reference to a master-ball is the first time I've ever heard PA mention a Non-Playstation title directly. I LOVE playstation, but I like to see they play\have played other things. I understand not focusing or highlighting anything but playstation; and, I respect the continuity. I understand representing a very competitive company; but, I really do think using a competitors work\ideas\mechanics as a comparing and contrasting tool would simplify things. As well spoken as everyone on this channel is, I think in certain instances it makes more sense to do a quick nod than it does to write up something long-winded and witty. Much love, happy to be subscribed

[@GameRaider3223]

Ty the Tasmanian Tiger is mine. It was a cartoony platformer that rarely left my console. All the different boomerang types made the combat really enjoyable.

[@legit_khajiit]

Cat Quest! Fell in love with it pretty early on - it had terrible cat puns, references to the Elder Scrolls, and some great gameplay and solid story. I know some people found it a bit too grindy and repetitive at times but I really enjoyed the pacing. Really hoping it comes to PS Vita.

[@der_teilnehmer9946]

Does anyone else have the feeling that e.g. Rob and Hollie have been beginning to talk a bit more like Dan? Concise phrases, deep kind of voice, going down at the end of sentences, staccato style punchlines... Seems to be quite infectious! 😁

[@xqwrtz3000]

Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits. No idea why, I loved that game. It wasn't the deepest RPG I ever played, but the story and combat style were compelling. Compelling I say!

[@mrcoldmiser]

I initially passed over oceanhorn because I didn't care for the art style from the images on the ps store, but seeing gameplay of it here and Holly's vouching for it means that I'll be making room on my memory cards to download it! I can't believe that the composers for Romancing SaGa and FF worked together on the music for it! I can't wait! :D

[@PlayStationAccess]

I didn't really think much of it either but someone suggested it for one of my livestreams and I just loved it. I hope you will too :D - Hollie

[@ChocolatierRob]

Omikron: The Nomad Soul. An early game by Quantic Dream featuring David Bowie. No other game out there lets you go to underground David Bowie concerts while exploring a distopian city buried under an ice age in a parallel world. It had some serious janky issues but I loved it all the same. Originally they asked if they could license some of his songs for the game but he told them he'd rather write some new ones for it and he created the album Hours. A truly unique _very_ early sandbox game.

[@masterfulsnowelf2840]

I still have Jade cocoon 1 and Legend of dragoon. I will never part with them, they made my childhood.

[@Glitch_Ash]

My underrated gem: Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus :D

[@dien00b31]

Louise Butler this Game is the reason I played Final Fantasy VII and that is my favourite game ever since then. Dirge of Cerberus made me a gamer again, after a period of puberty ^^

[@michaelwarden7761]

The Monster Rancher Series! Loved the Monster generation from any CD or DVD. Every music or movie purchase was doubly fun as it meant I had a chance for another monster type.

[@jeremybds1901]

Friday feature: characters who balls'd it up or got a weak dismissal when WE WEREN'T IN CONTROL!

[@seansmith3624]

Downhill Domination is my masterpiece on PS2

[@HectorPunch]

Back on the PS1, Monster rancher 2 was my underrated game that I fell in love with. So many hours of my childhood!

[@ladymoniquevonmolendorff5304]

My two fun, underrated, go-to games are Blades of Time and Shadows of the Damned

[@Crampsam]

I know it’s not a PlayStation game but most underrated game for me has to be Alan Wake. Fantastic story, impeccably creepy atmosphere, fun gameplay, lengthy single player, tonnes of replay value, great dlc. Near perfect game

[@thebossman222]

Okami was mine from the ps2 era, saw it for £20 in a now defunct HMV store near London, very much an impulse buy and loved every minute of it

[@darkenddragon_-7606]

Darksiders is very underrated.

[@lowerclassbrats77]

DarkEndDragon_- Absolutely

[@Incoherent-excitement]

Really liked both Darksiders 1 & 2 and looking forward to the 3rd coming in December (I think).

[@logiclunacy606]

Foxy you can't judge a game based on 5 minutes of playing

[@cholohd32]

Gryzor, Summoner 2, Etherlords 1 & 2, Moonstone, Crazy Cars 3, Sid Meirs Pirates Gold, North & South, Croc, Sly Cooper, Shining the holy Ark, La Purcelle Tactics, Medievil & many many more

[@linusah]

you dont tweet for a lost item Holly, you call costumer support.

[@BrutalBarracuda]

Go back and play Jade Cocoon 1 Rob, its great! Better than 2.

[@takatacheroki2624]

Here's mine: *"Bastion"* courtesy of Origin Games. Gameplay is great, story is intruiging, art is unique and beautiful, and the soundtrack is wonderful (especially one song in particular that gets a special rendition at the credits). Also, things change depending on what you do; the narrations, the events, and the ending. It's impossible to hear all the narrator's different lines in one playthrough, and what's awesome is that after you beat the game once, you can play through again and keep all your items and experience for the second game. You don't have to, but it's there as an option. All and all, I was expecting an 8/10, but Bastion gets a solid 10/10 for me.

[@Danmarinja]

Mirrors Edge: Catalyst is such a fun game that I don't understand the hate for. Also I understand Hollie's pain, because just yesterday I lost my wallet on a bus, except that has my money and ID and way too much stuff I need daily.

[@vee1766]

Mad Max DEFINITELY belongs there, it's a true gem and is absolutely gorgeous, one of the most screenshot-able game i've ever played. I would add Technomancer, a sci-fi a-RPG develloped by (the infamous) Spider which got bad reviews when he came out (it is rather... unpolished) but is actually VERY enjoyable and has a great story and setting.

[@jakebaigent7582]

My pick would be Rain, an indie style game that came out alongside Journey. It's haunting, beautiful and involves a really interesting and unique mechanic.

[@BigCowProductions]

Don't normally be that guy to comment on looks, but you are looking wonderful Hollie. You are more vibrant and the not-so-much makeup suits you better. Also, good pick! I liked Oceanhorn.

[@daytonax6984]

Heavenly Sword. It was in my PS3 bundle. Very underrated game that I thought should have smashed the charts. Beautiful looking game, great story, brilliant cast and acting, fighting mechanics spot imo, the use of motion control when shooting arrows aaaaaand Andy Serkis. I doubt it will get a remaster, but if it did.....

[@Betogunner22]

Metal Gear Rising Revengeance!!!!!

[@toter80]

Love that game. Only metal gear game I have ever played. (Please don't hate me)

[@HC_Constance]

One of my favorite underrated games is Blackwood Crossing. It's beautiful and emotional and no one ever talks about it! I love it! It's a great game.

Have to agree with dave Mad Max is a great game to play, not the greatest game ever made but so hard to put down and not get sucked into the amazing world!

Great choice Dave Mad Max is definitely an overlooked gem.

Underrated gem.... I'd have to go for the misadventures of tron bonne. Flipping loved those servbots. Training them was fun in minigames. Good mix of puzzles and action. I really must play that again!

I adore that Nathan's pick was Dying Light! That is truly a wonderful title, with so much to do, and such a good story; the scares are real, the tension is thick, and the payoff is gold. I have played that game multiple times, and recommend it to anyone. My pick would be be The Suffering on PS2. Gorgeous horror game so full of lore that you NEED to 100% it because you actually want to know what brought you there. Dialogue is good, inner monologue is better, and the antagonists feel interesting and original. Any time I mention this game as one of my favorites, it's rare that someone has actually played it. The disc is still inside my PS2, waiting to be played again, and I consider it often.

No mention of Suikoden yet? This series was awesome! No other JRPG contained nearly as many playable characters to recruit into your party and choose from

Mine is The Banner Saga. It fascinated me so much I finished it in two day and bought the sequel right away.

Battalion wars or Custom Robo for GameCube. I absolutely loved the games and need to get them back one day since my GameCube collection of 121 games got stolen :(

Mad Max was a lot of fun. The car progression system was great and I'd love to have more car centric RPGs

Any Suda 51 game. Good Lord I love that talented and bizarre madman.
