Great But Forgotten/Unknown Games

[Drakul]

Did you ever have a game you thought was great when you played it but no one else seems to have even heard of it?
This is a thread to talk about them, spread the word and show what makes them so good.

It can be any system but, ideally, anything previous to the current gen for the sake of reawakening any memories people have about the games.
Try not to focus on games like Chrono Trigger or Sonic 3 because everyone knows those games.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had a game on the PS1 called "Tomba!" in the US or "Tombi!" in the UK.

It was a great game. It was a Platformer RPG-like game with fully animated and voiced anime style FMV.

It was bright, colourfull and unique. You would do quests like clearing the fog or finding a 1,000 year old man and gain points for doing it. You would upgrade your clothes and weapons to make fighting enemies easier and gain new platforming abilities like dashing or sneaking.
The game played with a side scroll view, mostly, but sometimes you had top down sections.

I was slightly creeped out, when I was younger, at the "Mushroom Forest" area of the game. There were these giant flowers everywhere with creepy (to a kid) clown faces on them and you had these mushrooms you could find around the area and eat. If you eat a certain type of mushroom, they'd go into hysterics and just start smiling and laughing but if you got the other type of mushroom, they'd look sad and start crying and whining. It was just really creepy to me.

I'd really like to play it again but it costs upwards of £60 ($98) for it on eBay (It's £39.99 for a modern day game) with one guy wanting £149 ($240) for it. So it'll be a long time before I ever play it again.

Hogs of War on PS1

I just remember renting this like 10 years ago and it being a lot of fun. It was an RTS sort of a cross between Worms and Final Fantasy Tactics. And you played as pigs.

[Bad Company]

Street Rod, Wings of Fury, Battlechess, Fire Power (amiga).

I had Hogs if War on the PS1. It was actually a lot of fun. I remember ther being rumours of a new one coming out last gen. I don't think it ever happened though.

They should update the graphics, maybe throw in some new content and definitly put in an online mode and put HoW on XBLA/PSN.

Don't know how unknown this is but I feel like it is fairly underrated. Easily one of the best games for the Gamecube. The story was great as was the gameplay.

[Drakul]

Silicon Valley was fun in the small amount of time I played it on the N64. I think that's another game that goes for a high price on eBay.

Eternal Darkness was great to. I've no idea why they haven't made a sequel. One of the Wii U might work (Pretty sure Nintendo are involved in it).

I was originaly just going to post Kula Word, but then I got thinking about some other PS1 games that I like that would fall into the "Forgotten/Unknown Games" topic.

Yessssss


Eternal Darkness was great to. I've no idea why they haven't made a sequel. One of the Wii U might work (Pretty sure Nintendo are involved in it).

Also awesome. Nintendo own the trademark, Silicon Knights did the game. They apparently have no interest in doing a Nintendo only game right now though.

Best one here and yes, it's coming to XBLA :heart:

But:

Deadly Premonition, ActRaiser, Superfrog, Arabian Nights and Skool Daze off the top of my head.

The best story for a video game Ive seen. It would even be an outstanding story for a legit horror movie. The creatures are very disturbing and actually tie into the story as to why they are what they are. The story goes through the history of the prison and the island its on and the connection it has to the main character you play as. Also the game has three different endings based on the choices you make in a game and the game also plays a little different if you are taking the psychotic route.

[Drakul]

ActRaiser! Fantasic.

I played Skool Daze on some Spectrum site. Was cool.

Two more games I really liked are Stunt Race FX, my first 3D racer:

Same company who in the future made the Grand Theft Auto series and yet their first console sandbox game ends up being on a Nintendo console of all places. Story has it the reason why a Nintendo console never got any port of a GTA game is due to Rockstar hating how much demands and changes Nintendo wanted instead of leaving them alone.

I'd put Psychonauts and Okami under the category of forgotten games when it comes to actually buying them even though both games got rave reviews from critics and gamers.

Downhill Domination for the PS2 is one of the greatest racing games I've ever played. Spiritual successor to Road Rash with BMX instead of motorcycles and crazy tracks.

By that same token, the original Sled Storm was amazing.

Also, my first thought usually goes to....

<iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-Fl3ZwERMgE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Skies of Arcadia, though I never owned a Dreamcast and instead played the GCN port, SOA Legends. Despite a borderline Mary Sue protagonist and a villain that almost makes Sepiroth look deep by comparison, it's one of the most memorable RPGs I've ever played. And it's unfortunately nearly completely forgotten.

Not forgotten and not great. It is a good game up until the very, VERY end, after you kill the final boss. The final task afterwards nearly ruins the game. It is one of the worst sequence of events in video game history. Not talking about the Chrysler Building either.


I'm talking about the part where the thing chases you down the inside of the ship and you have to make about 5 decisions correctly without having any information at all. It is almost purely luck, and if you make one wrong decision, you die and have to fight the entire final boss fight over again, which takes around 30 minutes. There is a telephone that lets you think you can save the game, and if you try to use it you find out it is dead and the beast comes and kills you, you don't even have a chance to escape. Then there is the part where you have to blow up the thing in the boiler room, but it is so ambiguous that you might not even know you're in the right room. It honestly took me about three hours to complete this part, and it probably made me more frustrated than I ever have been in a video game. I know it took my friend longer and he had to look at a guide because he probably never would have played it again otherwise. I know he liked the game up until that point and now he hates it more than any game ever.

Since jamesdiesel started it, I've been trying to remember a game that was I think on PS1, but might have been early PS2 - it's a RPG where you play music to cast spells - I think the name is something like Shadow Hearts, but I know that's not right.

LOL at the "Low Battery" light being on, because that was ALWAYS the case - You could buy brand new batteries and within 5 minutes that light was on, and this was before rechargeables were really out there.

The game is about the sun being blocked out by a big block, then the big block rains down little blocks which the buddies use to build weapons and whatnot.
Best multiplayer game ever IMO

LOL yeah. I rarely used the batteries. Usually it'd be plugged in a wall or in the car.

I still have the system, but the battery pack is long gone, lol.

i dunno why but when i see snes and nes game boxes/cases posted up here a part of me gets all retro-excited. like the kid in me is all SWEET, SNES GAMES. like nowadays i just go buy games and don't give a shit and go home and get on with playing it but back then it would be all "WE NEED TO DO THE REST OF THE SHOPPING NOW" and i would stare at the bastard case and instructions all day, dying of anticipation. they even smelled different/awesome.

This was amazing. It was the only point and click game that I ever got into. Got it through the Scholastic book store. Lost it and bought it again I loved it so much.
