Name a game with crappy reviews (less than a 6.0) that you still like anyhow.

@SOedipus: Mario Kart 64 was that low??? Must be a typo. Maybe it was Mario kart 6.4 on accident lol. Game was awesome.

3 of the best games i played in last years have really shitty visuals, factorio (snes graphics) kerbal (ps2 level 3d vsuals) and PUBG (good but far far behind shoothers like BF1) other GOTY deserving games like overcooked, Inside and grow home also dont have any impressive visuals, and im still a graphics whore

As mentioned already, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze should go down as one of the worst reviews in Gamespot history.

Too Human 5.5

Oh wow, how did I forget this. Yeah this would definitely be my choice. Tropical Freeze was one of my favorite games of the 8th gen and was one of the best platformers I've played, only getting beat out by Shovel Knight for me.

I knew I liked you, and appreciating the Melee gameplay just sealed the deal, lol. I do normally suspect with some poor reviews, that sometimes the reviewer just doesn't have the skill to playing the game they are reviewing properly. Sort of like everyone freaking out over Crash Bandicoot.

That was a simple but surprisingly entertaining enough game :)

The last I remember was driveclub. Enjoyed it a lot.

@aki2017: I played that game way longer than I should of lol.

I even played the multiplayer for ages, and the multiplayer was bare bones

Doom 64's review score of 4.8/10

I mean yeah it wasn't the best Doom in the series but it isn't terrible at all. It's a pretty fun game and not sure why it got that bad of a score. In fact it has a cult following these days.

Advent Rising on PC

@aki2017: Hey, great minds think alike man. :p

Ironically no blue shells until Double Dash on Gamecube.

Mario Kart 64 definitely had blue shells.

Brain fart. It didn't have flying blue shells...

@sonic_spark: Wiki says the blue shells orginated in mario kart 64. Weird.

Oh I get it. "Flying blue shells".

Fantasy Life

I can't say I ever much cared for Mario Kart 64 or Super Circuit, but to give those games some credit, the blue shell was was definitely the best handled in both those games. For one, they didn;t pop up anywhere near as frequently, and secondly the wouldn't just target specifically who was in first, but knock into anyone in front of the person who threw it.

Really wish they'd design it that way again.

Dragon Valor (PS1) - 5.6

Criminally underrated arcade-style action-RPG from Namco, a sequel to their 1984 arcade action/RPG/platformer Dragon Buster. Dragon Valor's hack & slash gameplay was a lot of fun, almost like an evolution of Golden Axe, with platforming, puzzles, RPG elements and non-linear storytelling. And it had an interesting branching system, where your actions lead to the game branching out into multiple different storylines, levels and endings. The soundtrack was also really good, with some great action music.

It got low scores for several reasons. The 3D graphics were sub-par even for its time. And despite having 3D graphics, it played more like a 2D side-scrolling game, in an era that was moving towards 3D first/third-person gameplay. It also wasn't very long, like an arcade game, but had plenty of replay value with the branching system.

Heavenly Sword for PS3

Reviews were not good, but everyone I know that actually played it loves it. I hope get to it eventually.

Fantasia on the Mega Drive. It was badly made, and the collision detection was woeful. That said I liked the classical music and the settings and back in those days if I got a game I made the most of it so I got in to it.

@Yams1980: Yeah, that sounds like Steve Ballmer scoffing at the first Iphone, saying nobody would pay that much for a phone.

Deadly Premonition.

Risen 3 got 5.2 from IGN (7 on here) and I really liked it but I like all the Risen games. You go into them knowing they are Euro janky with weird graphics and totally 'out there' storylines but you love them anyway, if you're me.

100% this

@Uesugi-dono: What's up bro ? Long time no see (: How is matastig ?

I'm going to say Ryse, I enjoyed the game, sure the campaign was short, but I spent a lot of time on MP which was where the game really shined.
