So lately i have been buying older games at cheap prices such as demon souls which i have burned out on at the moment after 4 playthroughs. I need a good hidden gem out there any thoughts?

One you would find in a treasure chest? Or if you want to go real hardcore, chip away at a rock somewhere in a mine...

please ignore him, not all of us are so smug and condescending and hell bent on being obsessively unhelpful. try folklore (lots of text to read, but still a cool game) or valkyria chronicles

Try Dark Void. It should be like $5-$10 and its pretty fun as well. Valkryia Chorincles, Sid Merers, comes to mine as well both under $20

Its turn base but its pretty fun (and hard for me at least). The story and grapichis looks great.

Folklore - It has a great story, and the art-style and soundtrack are top-notch. It uses the sixaxis feature nicely. The only bad thing about Folklore is that it's repetitive. You have to go through the same levels and fight the same bosses twice if you want to finish the game.

Valkyria Chronicles - The gameplay is incredibly fun & fresh, and pretty much each mission is unique. It never gets boring, since each mission has its unique twist.

The Darkness and Dark Void are pretty good too.

...The Saboteur

Namgis

Forget my earlier recommendations, THE SABOTEUR! That game was awesome. If you haven't played it look it up, for sure.

Here's the general idea:

You are an Irish Race Car Driver in WWII-era France (and Germany) in a GTA-esque world.

And if you're a completionist or trophy-collector(?) this game will give you hours of gameplay.

I'm not actually an achievement hunter, but I liked the game so much, I didn't want to put it down after beating the campaign so I completed all the Free-Play Challenges (think pidgeons in GTA IV) and have 1000/1000 Gamerscore...
