The Conduit is too new, so I can't even comment on it yet.

AA Uncharted seems the best choice on that list (HW 6.5?, LO A?), but I think I could think of better choices. Ah well.

Just off the top of my head, De Blob, LKS, RATCHET!!!, Heavenly Sword, and VF5. BlazBlue once it becomes older.

Uncharted is the most underrated game of this Generation. The reason is the gameplay, story, and graphics make it a solid 9.0 IMO.

Those games (except halo wars from what I've heard) deserved their scores. I played the conduit like a few hours ago at a firiends and while its fun its still just a basic run and gun. Uncharted got a fair score too all things considered. Haven't played LO yet but I will.

Lost Odyssey, Crackdown, Valkyria Chronicles, Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted are all underrated here.

The Witcher is underrated here and in the general public. I guess most teenage gamers don't have a long enough attention span for a game like that.

Dead Rising, no one seems to bring it up. SAGE_OF_FIRE

  • Fairly harsh initial difficulty due to time constraints and Frank's initial lameness
  • Gunplay was pretty weak
  • Survivor AI is terrible
  • One save slot
  • Super ridiculous tiny text for SDTV's (To be fair, this wasn't a factor for the majority. Unfortunately, I'm not a part of that majority. :evil: )
  • Survivors have annoying voice (Makes saving in the security office that much more annoying. :x)
  • Overtime mode was a bit in my opinion...Rushed, for a lack of better words
  • Ridiculous achievements (Ignorable if you don't like collecting achievements)

The first four are the major ones for haters. I could probably come up with more, but my memory of the game isn't good seeing as I haven't played it in a year.

I said initial lameness. :P He didn't kick ass the first time he encountered the zombies! He ran! That line came a few moments later to redeem himself of all lameness!
With all due seriousness, his moveset is very limited at the beginning, he's not very fast nor strong, can't carry much or take a hit. For first time players, this is already a lot. Factor in their lack of knowledge of infinite food supply locations e.g OJ at the 2nd floor of Paradise Plaza and stronger weapons and you've got hell.

ActicEdge

That is the correct answer. Nothing even compares next to Zack and Wiki. Fantastic game that is never mentioned by anyone.

Agreed. I beat it last month and I thought it was a great game that was different from other games this gen since there aren't that many point and click games on consoles. I hope their is a sequel but I doubt it.

Nope, Capcom won't do it. It would make too much snese and they'd have to actually advertise a Wii game. Craziness.

Uncharted DF and ME...how both games failed to get 9.0-9.5 i still don't understand. Gamespot rather give a** games like AC 9.0.

Burning_Sun
Agreed. AC was boring. Uncharted is my favorite game for PS3, only problem is weapon balance. Nobody takes that many 7.62 mm shots from an AK 47 to go down. ME was incredible, frame problems yes, but I was so into it that it didn't come close to bothering me.

Depends on what you mean by "underrated." GS score wise, I'd say Ratchet and Clank. If by credit on these forums, I'd say the Witcher doesn't get talked about enough. Nor does Valkyria Chronicles.

Too Human. I enjoyed it more than several AAA games this generation. Out of those Lost Odyssey but Uncharted should have been AAA.

I don't understand all the Fire Emblem love. Sure, it's a good game and all but it's exactly the same as the six year old GBA version.

Zelda: Twilight Princess is only underrated here in GameSpot. The majority of the gaming world gave it GOTY 2006 over Gears of War and Resistance, but just because Crazy Jeff gives it an 8.8, the Sheep turn into Wolves and eat their own game. The majority consensus is that it's the best Zelda ever, and I couldn't agree more.

Zeno Clash. Should've gotten an 8.0-8.5, it had great fighting mechanics.
