Now that's just sad.

The Jumper series is amazing. The difficulty scale is definitely harsh, but the level design is pretty mych one of the best I've seen. There's no actualy homepage for the games, the developper only has it on his site.

Freespace 2

Anyone remember Monster Hunter Freedom Unite? It is now unheard of now that MH3:Tri is out.

I always liked this game for SNES, called Uniracers, you would be a unicycle of your color of choice, and race against a white unicycle and do tricks 'n' shit. The only problem was that there wasn't any multiplayer, so you and a friend would basically see who gets the best time.

LostMagic for the ds

Based on its sales numbers, I guess not very many people know about a little DS game called The World Ends With You. This is a tragedy. It is arguably the best JRPG this generation, and one of my favorite DS games. And I'm a DS fanboy.

Essentially, it stars the angsty whiny emo boys that everyone knows and loves/hates, but instead of being Spartan soldiers or space pirates or whatever, they're everyday teens who lived in Tokyo. The problem: they're dead. However, they have a chance to regain their lives by playing a mysterious game managed by an order called The Reapers. The story has its stupid annime/JRPG shit, but its still one of the better stories I've ever seen in a game.

TWEWY takes place entirely within a single neighborhood in Tokyo. Instead of having a huge overworld to explore, you will get to know every patch of ground and every item shop. And guess what? This is a good thing! Players build up relationships with shop keepers to get access to better stuff. As the game goes on, you will overhear the everyday struggles of random people progressing. Landmarks become old friends and monuments to bitter struggles. The world is like a puddle has no bottom; you can cross it in seconds, but it's extremely deep.

The most remarkable aspect of the game is the gameplay itself. The player controls two characters at once, one per screen. Essentially, the same enemies are on both screens at once, and you get to fight them in both places. The top character is controlled using either the D pad or the face buttons, and attacks using long combos while protecting themselves by blocking. The bottom character is essentially a mage, who can use up to six of the hundreds of the abilities in the game per battle. He is controlled using the stylus, and has to switch between evading foes and using powerful abilities. This is all very confusing at first. However, the game lets the player slowly ease into the system, and even lets the computer control the top character if necessary. And at any time outside of battle, the player can switch difficulty settings. In short, this makes a single highly original combat system rewarding to both noobs and RPG freaks. Grinding isn't necessary, but you will do it anyway. Because combat is that awesome.

The game's presentation is the DS at its best. Characters have fairly detailed 2D sprites, and the scenery is something you've never seen in a video game. The enemies resemble living graffiti, and are a marvel to look at. The game also has an impressively large and high quality soundtrack, and consists of some of the only J-pop songs I've ever not hated.

The game also has a surprisingly high amount of replay value. The regular campaign is a sweet 20 hours, but it is easy to more than double that. The game is divided into about twenty chapters, and every chapter contains secret items, bosses, weapons, etc. Plus, the tin pin slammer minigame is a good distraction, and is worth checking out.

If you are a fan of RPGs, buy The World Ends With You. If You are a fan of original gameplay ideas that work, buy The World Ends With You. If you are interested in a game that truly has its own character, buy The World Ends With You. If you are an organic being, buy The World Ends With You.

I wuv this game.

tl;ar (too long;actually read)

Shit, I almost forgot about this game and I owned and beat it with the alternate ending. Sad, isn't it?

Virtua Fighter 5

Every time I ask someone about it, they say that they've never heard of it. However, when they try it out, they fall in love within 15 minutes. It's one of the best Fighters ever made, period.

Not only that, but you can get it new for $20!

Did you collect eggs in that game and explore a prehistoric landscape and fight other dinos? If so I fucking love that game. I've forgotten the title because I played it when I was a lad.

Crysis is not that unknown, but none of my friends have even heard of the game.

Tenchu Z, such an awesome ninja game. Liked all the blood when you back stabbed someone... Like a fountain of joy

The Neverhood, awesome puzzle game, just some part are boring as hell, ie when you need to walk all the way to somewhere to get something for another place really far... Lot of walking.

Megaman 64... I love 3d megaman, why they didn't done more of them?

I think you're talking about Nanosaur. Link

Super Mario RPG. How many of you actually own the real cartredge?
Mario Is Missing (SNES). Don't... Judge Me.
Popeye 2 (GB). Fun Platformer.

Contact, for DS. It's an awesome game, and I don't know many people who have played it.

Pokemon all the way :D

marc ecko getting up that game gave me some kick ass memories..the game had a lot of replay value and the game had some funny characters.. I think it was the first graffiti game for the playstation 2 that actually did sucessfully well in the video game market.

There's too much content in that little cartridge. The best remastering of a Mario game, ever.

Urbz:The sims in the city for GBA...

It was freaking awesome, a good sims, on a good portable console... had good amout of humor and good gameplay...

No comment

i-Ninja, Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars, Feel The Magic XY/XX, Link's Crossbow Training (Granted, this one isn't that unknown, but it's not exactly on the forefront of anyone's mind), and geist.

I do ;)

Also I seriously dig Gitaroo-Man, and Space Channel 5. Basically any good rhythm game.

Siren games, or.... simply old schooled survival horrors that are dying.

i-Ninja, Gitaroo Man, Half-Minute Hero, Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble, Way of the Samurai series and a lot more. These are the first ones that come to mind.

Worms 4 Mayhem, I still love playing that game with my brother, it deserves to be on Xbox live market place!

Spyro The Dragon, Muppet Monster Adventures, Toy Story 2, They are all very addictive and fun and nostalgic.

Hitman, Seriously with blood money you had so much choices on how you want to kill someone that who could hate it!

Crash Bash was a fun game to Co-op.

Grabbed By The Ghoulies, People say it's Rares worst game but it's really fun.

Oh, and most underrated game evar, MW2, WAY TO UNDERRATED
No just joking, More like way to over rated.

So yeah, My long list.

Armored Core series for me

also, Medievil was the BOMB!!!

I guess I'll say Tropico 3. It is complex, original and really funny. Yet a lot of people ignore it.

Spyro and Crash are pretty common, actually. The first few games in those series were great, but then they started to... Suck. Just like Sonic.
Katamari is kind of well known (if you owned the PS2), but most people haven't heard of it. It rocks.

Im not to sure if its well known or not but here goes nothing.
Legend Of Dragoon on the Playstation 1.
i completed it in 117 hours. nobody else in my family beat it :P
