The first Uncharted, as it really felt like the first "next gen" game of this generation, at least that I played.

The Motorstorm games are also pretty underrated imo. Without question these are my favorite racers to come out on consoles since GT1&2. They remind me of the challenge that snes/genesis games supplied.

Not underrated by critics I don't think, but Halo 3 gets bashed far too often. The game is actually really good. Tried and true, a rehash if you call, but the coop campaign is still the best out there imo.

------

I want to buy Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, someone please tell me it is underrated. I hear mixed things about it, but I miss these types of "set up" shooters.

Littlebigplanet, not in terms of review scores but in the way a lot of people and nearly all of my friends are too ignorant to see past the looks and main story of it and call it rubbish and childish without even taking time themselves to pick it up, take same time to create a level and check out the online and community aspects of it. That really grinds my gears lol and mirrors edge come a distant second.

Tools of Destruction sucked. They should have knocked off more points. Crack in Time was more fun.

Yeah, I got bored of Tools of Destruction about half way through.

For me, the most underrated game of this gen is Wipeout HD - fantastic game and already an established franchise, but because it was initially released as a digital download only nobody picked it up.

super puzzle fighter 2 turbo hd remix.

a 7.5 rating for a game that is near-perfect is laughable. one of the complaints in the review was the price point of 800 ms points, which looks hilarious now. for 800 points, this game has more meaningful content than most 60 games. the gameplay is so refined and all the alternative modes are fun. this is one of the best local multiplayer games ever produced.

I think Halo Wars deserved a better reception than it got. Its probably the best example of a console RTS using a controller.

It still sold quite a bit obviously, but that was really only down to the Halo name.

Shame Ensemble were shut though. Anyone know if this was a direct result of Halo Wars not doing incredibly well critically?

Wii Sports.

I think people would give it more respect as a game if it hadn't been a free game in most places. It is a much better game than it gets credit for being, and it has done more to sell the Wii than any other title.

I don't even know how you can say LBP has Gameplay, it's terrible. If i was forced to play one of the countless trash levels created for more than 20 minutes, I'd go insane

there are some amazing levels online that i had a great time playing. sure there's a bunch of ****ty ones but that's to be expected. to call it a "piece of trash" seems a bit ignorant.

Heavenly Sword, Uncharted1, R&C future tools of destruction, Warhawk & Folklore come to mind... basically all PS3's 2007 exclusives were underrated in here...

I agree, other then Heavenly Sword, the combat was just annoying to me... STOP BLOCKING!!!! lmao!

I was sceptical about Folklore but when you give it a chance and you get past the beginning confusion it turns into a interesting journey.. I almost hit myself in the face playing that game though :P

R&C no doubt most shafted game here.

I can't tell whether you're just a fanboy or if you're one of them people who just find littlebigplanet not "hardcore" enough because it doesn't stick to the regular formula of shooters, shooters and more shooters. Or maybe you just find it beyond you're intelligence to put some time into creating a good level on littlebigplanet and just sit there playing it for 10 minutes and get p***ed off because you find it too hard to create a level? enlighten me as to why it is overrated please?

Completely agree, for a new i.p and for a development team to grow some balls and actually try something completely new gets a lot of respect from me. And in my eyes it turned out brilliantly, I can't wait for mirrors edge 2 :D

It's a platformer and as a platformer it's absolutley horrid. The level creation is not innovative in any way seeing as Many PC games have been doing a much better job for a long time. Sackboy is annoying and just shows MM's lack of substance. Clearly if you want good platforming see SMG1+2 or even Shadowcomplex. You could call me a fanboy i suppose, a fanboy of not liking S****y overrated peices of trash like this. Ofcourse this game will get loads of sequels though because in this generation, the morons win, why else do people flock to movies like Avatar. Just because it's popular does not make it good.

I wouldn't call it trash, but I couldn't get into it myself, either. The level creation is interesting. I'm glad they went that route, and while I never bought LBP, the second one looks great. My main problem with it is that the platforming itself is just, I don't know, infantile?

Resistance, i remember reading a review in a magazine that gave the last appeal 8 out of 10, just last month i when to look at it again and there were still people playing online, the campaign is simply huge in comparison with others, you can do it in split screen and you have tons and tons of cool weapons to unlock. sadly other games this gen that came after it and on other systems got praised by stuff you had on Resistance like the hedgehog and shield grenade =/

A game that gets alot of undeserved hate is alpha protocol. THe game is very good imo. Its just some tec issues and polish it lacks. I also like folklore alot. Its a very pretty game and fun to boot.
