Great games that passed you by

[Jumpman]

Yeah but you knew that before the game was even released. :P

Metroid Prime and Ico were both awesome so screw you all.    Star Wars Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast is something I recently started playing despite owning it since it came out.  Not bad at all.  I\'ve also been playing a lot of Dreamcast games recently as a lot of them have been made available to me as of late.  Most of them are rare hard to find shooters so it\'s not so bad in my opinion.  Just yesterday I picked up four games I\'ve actually been curious about and have been pleasantly surprised with each including Beyond Good and Evil for the Cube, Metal Arms for the Xbox, Kung Fu Chaos for the Xbox (for party purposes) and Medal of Honor Infiltrator for GBA.  

Damn, I have too much to play these days.

I cannot help that I am correct 99.9% of the time.

As for ICO, I fail to see what the fun was in babysitting some girl who only spoke in "crazy bitch" language. Yes, the game was gorgeous but the gameplay was just downright boring.

I just thought the whole game, the joy of playing the game anyways, was all very subtle and very beautiful.  I\'m not going to explain why here, I\'d rather just link to my review so I can be lazy -- http://www.intensity-magazine.com/reviews/26  I also felt similar about Metroid Prime, but for entirely different reasons as listed here -- http://gamingtarget.com/SectionViewer.aspx?ArticleID=602&SectionID=742

Final Fantasy Tactics for the GBA... What a gem that game has turned out to be thus far...

Project Eden.. I was interested in it first, then when it got closer to release other games looked more interesting.. And when it finally came out I had completely lost interest in it (and it didn’t look that fun either).. but after several months I got to test the 20seconds demo.. with co-op play! Since I had almost no other co-op games at that time I ordered PE the same day.

Damn its a fun co-op game (if you are into that kind of slow paced puzzle solving type of game), very underrated.

Off topic: You do know that when you say something like this on a forum, people who haven\'t played the game might think it\'s bad. And yet you know (or at least I\'m pretty sure you know) that a lot of people think this is a fantastic game. This means that there are overwhelming odds that someone who buys the game will like it.
Do you really want that on your consience, to have perhaps persuaded someone through your writing from buying this game, a game that he/she would most likely enjoy playing?


Don\'t take me too seriously, I\'m mostly just joking.


On topic: I\'ve yet to get Ico and Ratchet and Clank. I would like to get them some day, but I doubt I ever will.

Yet another first. I just happened to pic this game up for $7 because i was always interested in it too and then lost interest after revs came out. So with such a low price i had to check it out. The controls were a bitch at first. Now im kinda getting into it. Not too far, but interesting.

well finally got ratchet and clank for christmas along with
dark cloud,final fantasy,star fox adventures,
Iam still  looking  for the first fatal frame I pick a copy of ico but
I heard it was to short

I played little bits and pieces of both Medal of Honor and Red Faction 2 and enjoyed both a lot.  I\'m thinking of stopping by to see if I can pick up used copies somewhere.

Also I\'d like to own Socom, never played that one though

Gotta love her.

Anyway yes it is short, but for the price you could probably get it for now id say its worth it. (cant wait for ICO2)

RF2 is a great game. Met my expectations. I just wish that its multiplayer was online. The multiplayer alone is awesome. The story isnt that profound but the gameplay is fun, and can get semi difficult.

Socom, I rented it and only played it for a half hour.  I guess I was really busy that week or something.

Games I\'ve let go by and wish to pick up in the near future :

Fatal Frame
Kurushi (was IQ Remix even released in Europe?)
Parappa the Rapper
Dancing Stage Megamix
Oddworld : Abe\'s Oddysee
Pikmin

I fell in love with Kurushi and Abe\'s Oddysee when I went through the very first PSX demo disc (Europe demo 1), again. Too bad they\'re pretty damn rare nowadays, it seems, Parappa even more so!

ICO is simply one of the best games ever. I had a friend crash in at my place some nights back, and at about 1am, I suggested we take a look at ICO. We stopped at about 2:40am, when she got grabbed by the ghoulies for the first time. Great for getting female friends to enjoi games with you.

I played this game called Pong. It was like great and stuff. And I was like wtf and it was like shut up dude and I was like wow you can talk and it was like yeah and I was like ok then I\'d better stop and it was like yeah and I was like like being byatchslapped byatch and it was like yeah. So yeah.
