Underrated Video Games

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, even though it's a quick beat, why does every one hate it?

That is actually the first game that came to my mind. Most of the other games mentioned here aren't really all that underrated.

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.

Vagrany Story (AWWEEESOMMEE) Jak and Daxter trilogy, Okami, FF X-2, Super Mario Bros. 2 & 3, Donkey/ Diddy Kong racing

I came up with another one... If you can consider it under-rated.

Elite Beat Agents- If you haven't tried it, you must. It is so awesome.

Turok, can't remember which one, but one of the ones for N64, and WCII, it was shadowed by it's child, WCIII, although it wasn't ever underrated....

You know, I think that America has the larger Earthbound fanbase now. People were actually sending threat letters to....Earthbound guy...for a while, I think.

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.

Well, I dunno, I can only go by what I read...I think Mother 3 was the last from him though.

Do you even know what underrated means?

I don't think he does! 

Command and Conquer: Renegade, and Mechwarrior 4: Vengeance

Harvest Moon. Great game but no publicity.

You're joking, right? It had a huge following, and not just an underground following, the games are very popular, plus they have tons of ads in nintendo powers.

Legend of Mana

Seiken Densetsu 3.
I'm in love with that game.  And TMNT Super something heist, for genesis, that game was fun! 

Wow, I have mind reading skills.  I was just about to reply with Seiken Densetsu three.  It is so great.

I couldn't get into it.

I couldn't get into it.

really? It was like a mental drug, I couldn't get enough of it. And when I got to a hard part, I trained my party up. I couldn't stop.

I thought it was pretty good, whoever did the translation did a great job too. I still prefer the Snes original, but 3 was kool.

I can never get myself to play very far into it. =/

I was about to beat the game...the crystal desert, but then I just stopped playing...I don't know why...

And yeah, the translations were great. No engrish.

I'm playing Seiken Densetsu 3 now. It's not the best of the Mana Series, but it's alright.

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

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.

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.
