I'm looking for games that while not have known great success had undoubtfully merit for being...i don't know inventive, ingenious...i guess what i'm trying to ask is this: alot of you must have a game or two you feel didn't have the attention it deserved. Got it? confusing? give me your feed back and help me augment my ps2 library

'The Thing' is a game that pops into my head when reading about underrated games. Really great, atmospheric game.

OKAMI. Greatly recieved by critics but virtually nobody bought it, this single-handedly brought the destruction of Clover Game Studios, R.I.P.

Without a doubt Okami was the most fun I had on my PS2, hands down.

Okami is an incredible gaming experience. I picked it up for $20 CAD, new. I can't believe that nobody has been buying it, yet games like Mario Party 8 are selling off the shelves.

Mafia...I liked it a lot, but I am also a really big fan of mafia movie so I guess I might be inclined to enjoy it more than most people.

I agree with all of the above posters, but I have others that need mention.

Kya (wonderful action/adventure platformer), Disaster Report (a unique gaming experience), Raw Danger (same as Diaster Report), Indigo Prophecy (very intriging puzzlingmystery), Marc Ecko's Getting Up (great action/urban brawler), Psychonauts (very surreal action/adventure platformer and funny too), Klonoa 2 (one of the first PS2 games I belive, it still holds up very well), Cold Winter (great story driven FPS), Rogue Trooper (great action game that got no attention).

Gladius. This game looks quite boring but once you play it for yourself its actually very fun. The beginning is kinda slow but later when you get stronger and encounter those massive battles where you can have like 7 gladiators on a team, the gameplay get exciting.

Bully wasn't underrated, it was all over the place. It's a great game and it definitely deserves a sequel, but by no means was it underrated.

Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit was a great game imo. Great how it felt like you were inside the game, watching a movie, but still playing the lead roles at the same time. I think it didn't get the attention or recognition it deserved. The game felt a bit short though...

Good game still!

Shadow of Rome

While it is not the greatest game ever, it's odd to see almost no buzz about this game considering just how violent and fun it can be at times. The storyline is a bit lame and the sneak missions all but kill the flow, but the missions and arena play isn't half bad and for a used game it can be found relatively cheap. It's psuedo rare.

I can't be modded for the following pictures, can I?

shadow of rome

chariot race

tiger fight

quicksand

You're absolutely right about this game. It's bloody violent fun,but the sneaking missions detract too much fromthe awesome "Gladiator-esque" arena fights. Also it's true that it's hard to find, it took me 3 months to find a used copy.

Siren definitely has a creepy atmosphere, but the gameplay feels broken at times. The controls should've been tuned up a little bit more before the game's release.

Predator Concrete Jungle is a great action game that is really fun to play. It doesn't matter if you're a fan of the predator or not, this game is sick. Sick as in awesome, and sick as in gorey as hell. It was really underrated, especially on this site, but it is at least worth renting.

My picks:

Transformers: Hard as slag but just as fun

Mobile Suit Gundam: Federation vs. Zeon: Now fight as Zeon or the Federation and blow the living pilots out of other Gundams

Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII: No, I don't think this game is the masterpiece that FFVII was, but I don't think it deserves the hate that it gets.

You've heard the "Beyond Good and Evil, Psyconauts" crap, and yeah, they're good games... but they're still talked about.

God Hand on the other hand, is a great game nobody talks about. BUY IT.

I loved the atmosphere and imagery. I also liked the way that it encouraged you to play through it multiple times.

I would go along and say Okami should have sold way more than it did. That was a great game that it seems few actually bought. God Hand was another Clover release that I found really fun. Sure, the targeting system was kinda rough(as in, didn't exsist) but it still was a blast to play, and as someone said...few people even talk about it. I know I had a great time with Psi-ops, but I don't know how much it sold and such...so I can't say if it was undersold or not. Indigo Prophecy rocked as well.
