Most Underated Game Yet (POLL)

lol, no votes for lair so far.

I have to say Heavenly Sword and Lair.

I think the game is a masterpiece and while I can understand that if you total up the hours it takes to complete that it's not very long, the game is more then good enough to warrant several playthroughs. I've already beaten it three times and I still load up chapters just to play for fun. Stunning production values, voice acting, combat and graphics make this a must buy and a must keep for me.

Lair is also grossly underrated in my opinion. While I won't say it's game of the year material, I don't think it's "poor" either. I never experienced the issues most people had with the controls and I found it to be a solid game. Being honest, I could see why people hated it because you shouldn't be forced to use the motion control. I bet the game would have done much better had you been given the choice. Either way, I like it but an option would have been nice.

The Ratchet review still baffles me, but I'll refrain from commenting on that because I haven't beat the game yet. Still, it's an awesome game and a nice departure from the dark, gritty, war torn games of today.

HS. Since the amount of time being six hours.

I own it and it's one of those games that will never leave my collection. We all have those games.

Heavenly Sword is amazing... I'm glad I picked this game up. The facial animations are so beautiful and stunningly realistic, and gameplay awesome, and just high production values all around.

It may be short, but it is so much fun to play... I'll never get tired of blowing up that giant army with my cannon. :oops:

But I liked chopping people up with Nariko and shooting them in the nuts with Kai.:D

You said it all man.

It's Folklore by a long shot, I felt like I truly got my money's worth with that game yet the masses don't seem to be picking it up. The storyline is AWESOME, graphics are gorgeous, and omg the Folk designs. The game has a certain Tim Burton vibe at times and it's also by Kouji Okada who is also the father of Shin Megami Tensei, and I'm a big fan of the SMT series. Not to mention Sony hasn't been advertising it in the States in the least.

Heavenly Sword would be second, whoever says it's a GoW clone obviously didn't play either games. I actually had to frame watch in the middle of battles which is something I haven't done since DMC3. GoW I and II are awesome games but I'm sorry, the combat depth in HS blows it out of the water. HS will more than likely make me jaded for voice acting and facial animations in every other game from here on out as well. It took me about 7-8 hours to get through but it was well worth it for the story alone.

I think they all suck except Ratchet and Clank.GreasyFetus69

Yep.

depends on what site you look at. Ratchet and Clank got tripple A from everyone i know of besides gamespot.

folklore appears to be a hit or miss, ign loved it, this site didnt like it nearly as much.

so far i feel resistance was under rated. i defenetly feel it deserves a AAA i bought it a month ago and reciently beat it.

With the choices, I don't believe any are underrated. Ratchet and Clank and Heavenly Sword: everyone seemed to like. Folklore: I can't say everyone liked it, however, I've yet to hear anything bad about it from people that own it and have played it. Lair: not underrated. The right word would be misunderstood (Out of these four games, Lair's the only one I own and I love it).
