Default Most Overlooked Games.

What in your oppinion is a game which whould have more recognition. IMO a game that is REALLY overlooked is Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare. I've never seen any threads on this game on any website's forum.

Rayman 2 was pretty overlooked, but an exceptional game.

Rocket, Robot on Wheels(N64) The awsome platformer nobody played. except me.

Mischief Makers (N64)- One of the most fun platformers I have ever played.

Pokemon Puzzle League (N64)- Not many people played it because of the word Pokemon.

Rayman Advanced- Amazing graphics, fun gameplay

Pokémon- Stereotyped by the TV show...IMO, a video game "hall of famer"

Body Harvest-I don't care what people say. That game was FUN! All the guns, bugs to kill , oh it's a marvelous thing!

Harvest Moon 64-More addictive than crack. I remember playing it for like 10 hours the day I got it. Although my wife still never had a kid...wonder if my character wasn't...well, ya know

Jurassic Park on the SNES. Very cool game, can't save though, which sucks.

Hey, i've got Rocket: Robot on wheels, it's an excellent game. And even better is the fact that it's the developers very first game (sucker punch).

Another overlooked game is body harvest, great fun from DMA.

The Longest Journey (PC)

Its not funny how good this game is. It won the best game that no one played in 2001 (gamespot). If only more people played it, its really cheap too.

Anyhow, I don't think RayMan 2 was overlooked it just came out in a good year for platformers.

But Mischief Makers, now that was a game. I thought no one else but me played that game. I even made a screen name for it, even though no one knows it.

Skies of Arcadia was also a very overlooked game, heck the only reason I found out about it was because I was in desperate need of a new game and I had all the games I wanted for n64 and DC at the time.
