Wow, I'm late...
S.L.A.I. was a lot like Armored Core. And almost as good.

Anyway... New game- Grandia 3 (Not sure if you would call it underrated...)
Very cliche at times, but still a great RPG.

Earthbound (in America, anyway..)
Totally agree on E.V.O. too, I loved that game  :fred:
Arena Blast was a really underrated game for the PC. I loved it when I was 10 and still like to play it. It was my first FPS, so many memories =/

Also, FFVII was pretty good...especially compared to some other FF's.. *cough*X-2!!*cough*
On the topic of FF, Tactics is sometimes under-appreciated.

That's true. I don't think Earthbound and Grandia 1 were underrated. Still, Earthbound is good. Although I haven't played it, Dawn of Mana seems to be pretty underrated. Already out in Japan and coming to the US soon, everyone's already saying that it's gonna be bad. Yeah right. I think it's gonna be awesome. Why didn't anyone like Sonic The Hedgehog 2006? Is a little challenge too much for New School Gamers? I welcome the challenge. Show me a difficult game, and I'll play it.

I doubt that; EB sales are almost always over double the sales in Japan. Maybe the fanbase in America is just growing. If there were more games to be exported to the states, maybe the Japanese could actually start a stable fanbase for the EB series. With only a game every 10 or so years and with unleading games like the Smash Bros. series, it's not a surprise that the EB support isn't fantastic.

Please, can you edit your post?
Well, edit it when you get father into the game.
What party members did you pick?
My fav are:
Hawk (aka hawkeye)
Lise (aka Lize)
Angela
Title: Re: Underrated Video Games
Post by: RedKnight on May 24, 2007, 01:45:20 AM
Why should I edit it? It's true. The game is just odd compared to the others, as Duran, the Main Character I chose, cannot attack three times like a normal Swordsman. While in Legend of Mana and Children of Mana, you can, making it easier to fight off enemies. As for my whole team, it's Duran, Kevin, and Hawk.
Title: Re: Underrated Video Games
Post by: SirJackRex on May 24, 2007, 02:38:11 AM
Stupid.

Never Ever pick Kevin Duran and Hawk.

Unless you're willing to sacrifice good classes just to even out your team, I recomend you get a new team and start over.

See, the battle system gets more complex and fun later on, when you get your other party members.
If you haven't gotten your first member, I suggest you turn back, you're still very close to the beginning.
Get Clair, she's good. And Duran is pretty good, but he has his draw backs too.
Angela at final class for Rune Master kicks so much arse. And Hawk is a must too! But don't go light with him...he blows light.
The game is so complex later on, you have to save state just to make sure you made the right choice. (over exaggerating!!! but still sort of on)
Lise is awesome, she can take down tanks, she's a power house. But you need to know what stats too.

Betrayal at Krondor. I've never met another person who's played it, but in my opinion it is the best RPG. I would say Period, but I always feel like that is understating the power of the ., which is, in fact, already a period.

"Stupid"? That's rude. I don't think it's your place to tell me how to play the game. All my Characters have had they're first Class Change and I just got off of the Ghost Ship. I seem to be doing just fine with my current team. Going back on Topic, I think Final Fantasy Legend was underrated.
Title: Re: Underrated Video Games
Post by: SirJackRex on May 24, 2007, 05:00:46 PM
Hmmm.....I said stupid because th party has it's downers.

Having the hole group men limits your abilities in magic and healing, unless you want to sacrifice good classes just to not spend tons of money for healing items...but the mana beasts are tricky if you can't heal.
Genova is the worst though...

FFL was the original Secret of Mana. I think.
Title: Re: Underrated Video Games
Post by: RedKnight on May 24, 2007, 09:31:11 PM
So what? The tougher the game, the better. In fact, if I find a way, I'll record the battle with "Genova" just to prove my point. My point being that Magic is dumb and getting in your opponents face is the way to go. And it was Final Fantasy Adventure that was the first Secret of Mana/Seiken Densetsu. Final Fantasy Legend was called Saga in Japan.

Underrated: Shininf Force(heh)
dawn of mana(i really hated it, but it doesn't deserve a 5.1 still)
stella deus(awesome rpg tactic :'()
wild arm series


btw duran hawk and kevin is a pretty dam good team.(not saying it's the best but IT DOESN'T SUCK)

kevin is a good attacking,making him warrior monk makes him healer of the team AND can attack.

having hawk with his elemental jutsu AND attacking can be replaced by angela(ok she has a magic lv 3 that does 999,so what?will you always cast magic?)
angela sucks for attacking. hawk has the highest accuracy,making him an almost perfect accuracy

duran IS duran. elemental swords moon saber or leaf saber totally pwns. and anyway,he's the powerhouse,with lise.

so erm.. ''GTFO'' like you would say

anyway,another under-rated game might be final fantasy 8. many disliked it as well.

I'm not entirely sure about this, but I think the two Eureka Seven games on the PS2 are underrated. I think those games are awesome though. If you like Surfing, Flying, Fighting, and Giant Robots, you'd like that game.

the only thing is that Limit breaks seemed rather random.

Final Fantasy VIII wasn't that bad, but it wasn't the best. While it did provide a challenge, I didn't like challenges when I played it. It's story was somewhat unique though. Going back on subject, another underrated game is probably Mega Man and Bass, but I'm not entirely sure about that. That game was awesome.

Betrayal at Krondor. I've never met another person who's played it, but in my opinion it is the best RPG. I would say Period, but I always feel like that is understating the power of the ., which is, in fact, already a period.

I have it, and it is really awesome. I think it's REALLY underrated for being a really great RPG.

Threads of Fate
5 pages of posts and yet nobody has listed Threads of Fate? You gotta be joking! Every gamer I talk to has never heard of this game DESPITE the fact that it was done by Squaresoft! I mean WTF! Common! As many people that follow around Square, you mean to tell me that almost the entire fan base missed the release of one of their games? The character's, music, and story are awesome! How often do you get to play as a selfish, tomboy princess wanting to take over the world or a quiet, pure hearted boy who can transform into the monsters that he's defeated? If I'm not mistaken, the game is out of print(not made anymore) but it's on PS1 if you want to try finding it at a Game Crazy, GameStop, or where ever. If you find a copy of it, BUY IT! It seems to be a rare find. ^-^;

Final Fantasy 8
God, I hated the junction system! You could never use any good magic unless you wanted your stats to go down because you always had your good magic junctioned to your stats! Although I recall junctioning Death to my weapons whenever possible, which owned. ^-^; Why do I feel it's under-rated? Because everyone hates on it because of the junction system. The story was great and seeing Rinoa and Squall together was kind of cute. The dancing scene is a perfect example of that.

I'm guessing that's because it never really took off. Hence, the not so common Threads of Fate disk. I'm a lucky owner of the game. Pick it up on ISO if you can ever find it. A USB controller similar to PS1/2 controllers run about 10-15 USD at a Wal-Mart. Great if you d/l games a lot! ^-^;

Phantom Brave isn't underrated, neither is Makai Kingdom or Disgaea.

On that note I really didn't like Makai. Way too short and lacked the same type of soul as the other NIS games.

although the one thing that sucked, is that they tried to come up with something ''new'' so they were like ''oh okay guys, let the hero carry a girl'' but damn that was stupid. even more damage when you bash the girl into the ennemies compared to that Katana...

I belive that the monsters are THAT ugly because of the fact that they(the dq8 team) wanted to keep the originality of monsters(dq1) EVEN if akira designed them on DQ8

Actually, most of my favorite games are the ones that don't get a lot of recognition.  On the Dreamcast were two RPG's that I loved - Evolution, and Time Stalkers.  Evolution and Evolution 2 were re-released together under the title "Evolution Worlds" not long after the Gamecube came out, but the first game was drastically cut down in size.  The battle interface was really simple, but the attack animations were completely awesome.

THESE GAMES ARE ALWAYS ON OUR MIND AND IN THE COMMERCIALS. THE GAME DEVELOPERS WERE ALWAYS ADVERTISING THEIR BIGGEST GAMES.

SO HOW ABOUT SOME GOOD GAMES THAT WE THINK THEY DIDNT REALLY ADVERTISED OR MADE A NEW SEQUEL?

POST SOME GAMES THAT YOU THINK THAT ARE GOOD BUT YET,

Here is mine:

the game is widely respected as one of the greatest PSOne games ever
I fail to see how it's underrated.

also, SquareEnix has repeatedly stated that there will be NO sequel to Legend of Dragoon.
I agree with this motion.
If they tried to continue milking the game, it wouldn't be as amazing as it is.

Oh hell yes. Chrono trigger is way better than this game. But i think this game should get good credit too
for a unique gameplay.

Betrayal at Krondor - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betrayal_at_Krondor

Now, it's not actually underrated per se by reviewers, but practically nobody I know has played it, so it classifies as underrated in my books.

This thread fails because:

Underrated means something that didn't get the attention that it deserved. Therefore, Mario RPG and Castlevania are not underrated.

Overrated means that something got more attention than it deserved. Unfortunately, the topic isn't about overrated games.

Mystic Quest is not in the "Final Fantasy Universe". Square just slapped the Final Fantasy moniker on it to sell more copies.

Legend of Legaia sucked ass.

Post by: Holkeye on September 11, 2008, 01:12:58 PM
I didn't say that, but since you want to get into a tiff on the subject, Circle of the Moon wasn't underrated. In fact, it's considered by most to be the best GBA Castlevania.

But seriously, here are some of my underrated games, and I'll tell you a little about why they're underrated:

Wild Arms: Alter Code: F (PS2) -

  This game was actually panned by most critics as being stale and not very well done graphically. I was a huge fan of the original game, (the rest in the series sucked pretty bad,) and to see the magnificent story and soundtrack fully realized in 3d was wonderful. It's one of the few console RPGs that I can actually play the whole way through without getting bored.

Dark Law: The Meaning Of Death (SNES) -

 While it was only released in Japan, Gideon Zhi of AGTP put out a translation of it a while back. It's technically an RPG, but it has a lot of interactive adventure aspects, pushing it up to the next level of entertainment. A lot of people don't like it, but I find it strangely addictive.

Fusion Frenzy (XBox) -

 Critics hate this game. The whole mini/party game genre is usually looked down upon by them, and most of it is justified. I have some great memories of playing this game with my old band in hotel rooms though, and sometimes I wish I could get everyone together to play it again. I never played the sequel, but I've seen some horrible reviews for it as well.

Extermination (PS2) -

 Before the days of Metal Gear Solid 2 and other 3rd person formulaic shooters, there was a game called Extermination, where the hero is roaming the halls of an abandoned military base in a violent snowstorm. It was kind of rigid storywise, and these days I don't even think someone would develop or produce this game, but it was pretty sick when it first came out, all those years ago. I think it was the first PS2 game I bought, actually.

Hoshigami: Ruining Blue Earth (PSX) -

 Hoshigami is a tactical strategy game, in the vein of FF Tactics and Disgaea. This game was excellent for its time, utilizing such features as chained attacks, and the ability to literally bounce an enemy back and forth on the battlefield with a succession of attacks. It was very heady stuff at the time, but NIS games came along and rendered it irrelevant.

Solar Jetman (NES) -

 Ahh, Solar Jetman. The tales of a space-age treasure hunter trying to amass wealth on a variety of planets. Complete with independent ship and jetpack controls, planetary gravity, and insane difficulty.

Jackal (NES) -

 Konami. Jeeps. Four-Way Rockets. Power Metal Soundtrack. I need say no more.



Title: Re: Underrated Video Games

Solar Jetman was F*CKING MENTAL. Did anyone actually finish that (apart from me)?
Title: Re: Underrated Video Games
Post by: modern algebra on September 11, 2008, 02:09:17 PM
Anyway, this thread is exactly like http://rmrk.net/index.php/topic,17320.0.html, so I'm merging them.

Also - another underrated game is Baroque, for the Wii. It's a roguelike and incredibly frustrating and you hate at least the first half hour, but it gets to be a lot of fun I think.

While I'm not saying you're wrong Anski, I have to agree with Holk on everything minus the Legend of Legaia part... 

Super Mario RPG is far from underrated as well, it's actually very well received..  Anyone that owned or has/had a friend that owned a SNES pretty much agrees that it was a great game..

agree, but i dont see it to be underrated.
Also, warrior within. I've seen many sites which put this on like the 3rd worse game (out of 10-to be precise, i saw 4 such sites) or sometimes the 5th or so.

Just because it changes the pace and all. Its bloody, has action and lot of "nudity". I mean, ok, if you don't want to play it atleast dont insult it because it is friggin awesome.
Also, if everyone is critisizing the new style it brings, then you're sure gonna hate Prince of Persia 2008 (though i think making each enemy boss like is 'coral')

YES, YES, A THOUSAND TIMES YES!

I think Final Fantasy 7 is fairly underrated. Cloud is a very deep character who has a very good hair do. The 3D graphics are supreme and they beat most of the other games at the time.

I think that the story is underrated and it should get more publicity.

I really liked all the Tales series, even though Symphonia was the only one that ever got American attention. Destiny 1 and 2 for the ps1 never really sold where I live, and even Symphonia has a minimal amount of understanding players these days.

Other than that, I'd have to say any soccer game ever made, since Americans seem to think football is life. I'm an exception.

Plenty of PS1 games were really underrated, but are really good.

I'll have to say King's Quest eventually. It was popular in its day, but when I mention it at school, people just look at me weird and change the subject.

Great game was great, I beat that when I rented it and got the best ending though, so I saw no reason to buy it.

Magical Starsign is probably one of the best RPGs on the DS and it's so underrated it hurts

That's because it isn't very good.

Ive actually beaten FF:Mystic Quest twice. I'd say its lived up to its role as a beginners RPG; what do you guys think?

I hated it. It was completely linear, and it had enemy stations on the map, which is a horrid way of leveling up.

I don't have it. I don't have a lot of games for my Xbox actually. I play most of anything that's cross console on my roomates PS3. He buys everything when it comes out. So, for as long as I'm here, no point in me getting it too. :)

Jet Set Radio is a whole lot of underrated. I loved the concept they did for the first game and still love it, just wish they did more of it and ported for the pc.
