Heroes of Annihilated Empires. It's a PC game that was made in 2006 and I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who ever played it. It's a good 'B movie' RTS/RPG hybrid game. 

Here's the wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heroes_of_Annihilated_Empires 


Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines was awesome, the only major bummer was the insanely long loading time + bugs.

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines
I've given this game to people who'd never heard of the Wold of Darkness and they loved it.
<3

Hell yes - Bloodlines is still one of my all time favorite games, even with all of the bugs. Everything about it was brilliant and no part of it ever got boring.

Also, i hate to admit it, but the haunted house levels, especially the hospital, scarred the shiz outta me!


Stubbs the zombie is another fantastic game that always seems to get overlooked. Such a brilliant sense of humor.

Also agree on the freedom force games. Pretty damn decent.

afaik the community is still patching and modding this game still today... fixing bugs and introducing new content and the like... and i also had about 10 'fraidy pee's in the haunted hotel level

such a good old game

Valkyria Chronicles PS3. I only know one other guy besides myself who has this game and although a lot of gamers HAVE heard of it, it was criminally under-appreciated on release. It's still probably my favourite PS3 exclusive game (yes, even over Uncharted 2)

You can make that two other guys soon... I have VC coming in the mail.

Virtua Fighter 5 and Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing would be the great but under appreciated games in my collection at the current time. The former is a very in depth fighter but not many play it. The later is my fav kart racer on the PS3 (yes, better than ModNation Racers and possibly Blur too) but many dismiss it due to the Sonic branding.

I've been meaning to get that for sooo long. I finally just ordered it about a week ago, but then had to cancel something in my order and had to cancel the entire order. Now that you remind me I need to order it again.

Yeah, I didn't care to much for Valkyria Chronicles.

I'm up to the fifth area/stage/level/whatever but it's been gathering dust for a few months now

It's not for everyone but I just loved the soft pastel visuals, the alternate WWII storyline with great characters and the gameplay.

If you like strategy games, you'll dig this. If you've played any sort of Turn-Based game like Advance Wars, it'll come very easily, combing aspects of both strategy and 3rd person shooter.

I'm on that level where you and that chick are stranded away from the group and have to stealth you way through it, whilst they shoot mortars at you.

Forced stealth level when I bought a strategy game for the ultimate loss.

I could not stand Valkyria chronicles i forced myself to play it and made it only up to CH. 7 Games like fire emblem and Vandal hearts eat Valkyria chronicles. I still have my copy but i would rate it as the worst game in my ps3 collection. Even classic games such as untold legends provided me more entertainment.

Most people disagree but I really liked GUN.  The story and characters were awesome and the gameplay was solid.  Would have liked it to be a bit longer and the graphics weren't A+ level but it was still an awesome experience.  I guess RDR has since taken the Western Sandbox genre to another level.  GUN was Activision's highest selling original IP back in 2005 but still no sequel Sad

Turning the clock back a decade, but whenever I saw Sacrifice for next to nothing I cried a little inside. Awesome atmosphere, well thought out gameplay, fun multiplayer, and a campaign that could be replayed multiple times what's not to love.

Scarface: The World Is Yours was great on Xbox, etc [it takes off right at the end of the movie] and has Ricky Gervais' voice in it, etc!!! The PSP version was a dodgy Drugs Wars knockoff tho...

My fav game no one seems to know about was made in Oz; Flight Of the Amazon Queen! It's available for free on ScummVM [www.scummvm.org]  and was where the Krome Studios guys basically started out on their own!! Highly recomm.

I think WET was a great game. I heard about it a while ago and completely forgot about it, then I saw that it was on sale at EB for $25 so I decided to pick it up. I love third person games and this was just awesome! The graphics weren't the best, but they were still good, and the game felt a bit short, but for $25 it was awesome! It was surprisingly gory as well which was good and the music soundtrack suited the game perfectly (not to mention the songs were catchy).
I'd definately recommend it to anyone who likes third person games.
