I\'d go with silent hill 2
it\'s 1 of the best survival horror games ever, arguably the scariest.
takes full advantage of ps2 sound which u can\'t really appreciate unless u have speakers, it\'s got graphics that are up there with the best of them, n arguably the most unique because of the grain effects. multiple endings, which dmc/mgs2 didn\'t have
and most places don\'t even consider it a game of the year candidate for some reason.

This is why I don\'t think it deserves game of the year: http://www.psera.com/bin/showreviews.cgi?id=7

Everyone is entitled to their own opnions but I too found that review a little harsh.
I truly enjoyed Silent Hill 2 and beat it with one of my buddies and throughly enjoyed the entire game but found only the ending is where we were a little dissapointed.
We then went to gamefaqs.com and discovered even more of the story then we were aware of. Truly amazing story and a quality game.

I don’t even recommend playing the game a second time through so obviously the five different endings mean as much to me as dust on my computer screen. From such a high profile title, I expected a lot more. I tried to keep the game very low key in terms of previews and such, but I just can’t get behind something that is called a game and behaves much more like a film. It could just be the jaded gamer in me striving to make an appearance on my gaming habits in general, but I feel the game really is fairly boring to play, but a lot of fun to watch.
WTF?!... this game gets my greatest respect. I dunno what kinda poor excuse of a review that was but Silent Hill 2 come out to be everything I expected.

I\'d have to go with Poy Poy(most underrated).
The only thing more fun than throwing stuff at your friends is throwing stuff at your friends in a video game.

You can write a better review simply because "maybe u just 2 scared to play and just like to watch over some1 elses shoulder"?
W-w-w-w-what?!
Your own words speak for themselves. There\'s no need for me to counter that, you just made a fool out of yourself.

I explained why it was poor, can you explain why it\'s good?

When you need the story explained to you, there\'s obviously a SERIOUS problem that needs to be dealt with in the game.

I agree with Ryu. I found Silent Hill 2 rather boring to play. Too much running around and exploring and not enough action. I also agree with his statement that its more like a movie then it is a game. The dark and moody environment is great and and all but without good and exciting gameplay, its meaningless.
-
I agree with Ryu on general principle because he is like my g-d. I worship every single letter that he types. Even better! His letters form words, which then form sentences!
Those sentences tell ideas!! It\'s genius, I tell you!!
*big wink* ;)
-
hahaha meji. I just hope those words dont go to Ryu\'s head. He might imitate Vince McMahon and start a "Kiss my ass" club. Believe me, you don\'t want to see him pull down his pants, its not a pretty sight. :eek:
-
Go ahead kiss my ass. ;)
-
LOL, "meji puts on chapsticks" HAHA jk. :clown:
-
Shin - Haha!!
Ryu - Pucker up, big boy. Yer ass, not my lips!! ;)

wow I havent posted in so long, don\'t know why I stopped in the first place. It feels good to be back in the forum mix.
-
I haven\'t posted here in a couple of weeks either. Forums loads too slowly when I\'m downloading mp3s. :)
Um... so, how \'bout SH2, eh?
-
How did we get from talking about underrated games to kissing ass? Oh my..:eek:
lol.. I too, think Poy Poy is an underrated game. It\'s hella fun.. I\'ve rented it numerous times. :)
-
I also did not like Silent Hill 2.
It was WAY to repetitive and slow moving.
Parts of the game were GREAT, no doubt. But generally it dragged. It is worth saying that it could have been a awesome game if a few things were different.
And it was not under-rated, it got a TON of hype.
As for under-rated, for PS-2 I think
Wild Wild Racing - Better game then some of the reviews, and its a fun (dirt) racing game.
As for the PS1:
I think Star Wars Jedi Power Battles is GROSSLY Under-rated. This game got RIPPED. It might not be the best graphics (although for the ps1, I thought they were fine) and some of the camera angles were not always the best but the bottom line is that game was F-U-N. Especially with the 2 player co-op mode. Me and my 7 year old son had TONS of fun playing this game together. We beat it like 3 times through, and STILL dig it out from time to time. All the star wars series haters out there need to get over themselves.
Ok that’s it.
-
I think the Temco\'s Deception series is pretty under rated. It\'s an excellent series that has lots of stragety to it. Then again I\'d also have to add Legend of Legiaia one of my favorite rpg\'s ever.:fro:
-
Vib Ribbon gets the title of most underated game
-
Ryu\'s review is good, but I still love the game none the less. I\'ve playe dthrough 6-7 times, it may be boring to some but it lies in your taste in interests. Please don\'t go around degrading a review which Ryu puts hours into, it\'s just not respectful.
Back on topic, the most under-rated game of my choice:
Okage: Shadow King
It\'s traditional, relies on humour as opposed to graphical lust. Storyline is very easy to follow with some young and adult humour, good mix all around. Like any RPG though, battles can become boring and repetitive.
-
Hmmm... "Survival- Horror" isn\'t my genre. I rented the game to give it a shot, but played it for only 30 minutes and got bored. Too much running around with a stick, lol. So I played GTA 3 and Silent Hill 2 remained under my couch somewhere.
:)

Gunstar Heroes
Probably one of the best games ever. Treasure really needs to make a 128-bit sequel.
-
I like the review Ryu but I disagree with some comments.
I think Silent Hill 2\'s plot is meant to be complicated and hard to understand due to the nature of the game. Its in its specification. The game is basically f**ked up. Well thats how I found the first game anyway.
