So, I was buying a used game today - Shadowman 2 - and I was thinking to myself, "I loved Shadowman 1 for the DC, I hope this game is just as fun." Which then caused me to ask tis question to you guys.

What do you think are some underapreciated games?
or even games that you like, for whatever reason, that really no one else liked
I know these questions are tired and old, but play along anyways. beigesmile.gif

My list -
Shadowman (DC).
Good adventure. Good story. Excellent and creepy sounds. Not too hard. Good length too.
You are this guy who's littel brother is killed and you get "cursed" to track down several serial killers. Part of your curse allows you to travel back and forth between the living world and the dead world.

Another one was this tank game called Wild Metal (DC).
It was slow as hell and not very exciting (ie: fast), but I played it all the time. Mediocre 3D graphics hurt the initial wow factor for most people I would imagine. Still, I loved it.

More to follow....

~lol, i'll admit that Shadowman 1 for the dreamcast was one of my favorites - a sleeper hit, a game that i played through several times without being bored; i wish i had the opportunity to play the PC version, for i was informed that the visuals were superior for its time.. ^^.

for my choice, i would have to say that there is a game for the ps2 that completely enchanted your's truly...the name of this title is Kya, Dark Lineage & i'll post a link below..

Kya, Dark Lineage

this game, though unpopular with the mainstream, is worth playing...the concept, story, graphics & play mechanics were all well presented & it was delightful to play ~ i enjoyed it, at least.. ^^` but like i said, within an industry where many eagerly await the next great mainstream "testosterone~murder/death/kill sc-fi/army" cliche' promoted games ~ Kya will most likely follow shadowman's fate, as a sleeper hit..
