Bayonetta actually got really good reviews, but after playing it I don't think it got the respect it deserves. It is truly amazing.

Condemned, PGR series, Burnout Revenge(not paradise)... there's probably a lot of good ones I'm not thinking of.

[QUOTE="fastr"]No stay away from fallout 3! horrible game at any price! Eternal Sonata (rpg) enchanted arm (rpg, if you can handle the first couple hours it's great)RobboElRobbo

Dude, it isn't even close to horrible. It's easily one of the best games this gen, I can tell you're one of those who just didn't get it and stopped playing after 10 minutes. It took them 6 years if I'm correct to develop.

If you read my other post, I played it for more then 10 hours, I was really looking forward to it, it just wasn't a good game! I only played it that long because I really wanted to like it, but there was just nothing to like. Ok, I just went back and looked at my save game file on my 360, I played that damn game for OVER 24 FREAKING HORRID HOURS! I just kept hoping it would get better, and it never did.

dude i totally agree with you. i love oblivion, but i could NOT get into fallout. i bought it when it first came out and the goty edition, but i just didn't like the story/gameplay/leveling system. the graphics and the setting were epic i will give it that (the whole futuristic retro theme in an apoc washington? thats what made me give it a second chance)

Dark void is pretty fun, interesting gameplay with the jetpack, not worth a buy but definitely worth a rent!

The Darkness because it's a FPS that is a great game and it's just not as popular as it should be. It's one of the few FPSs with a fantastic story.

craigalan23

The Darkness 100%, also IL-2 Sturmovich for being the closest thing to a full blown flight sim the console has ever seen. DiRT and even though it's brand new I think Metro-2033 will go largely unnoticed but shouldn't be missed.

Dark Sector is a great game, especially when you can get it on clearance or used for less than $10.00, also The Bourne Conspiracy was not bad, sort of linear, but good fighting and shooting. The most underrated game I've played recently was Sector 8. The single player blows, but the multiplayer is amazing. Reminds me of Tribes for PS2 mixed with some Halo type action.

Ghostbusters! It may be a little short, but if you enjoy the Ghostbusters movies (which is pretty much everyone), then you will enjoy this game. The story is worthy of the series, and it manages to capture the comedy and feel of the original movies. Also, busting ghosts with Ray, Egon, Venkman, and Winston is just awesome. Defintely my favorite underrated game!

I am glad someone said something about Fallout 3. I liked the game but it wasn't that great to me. I found the game very easy and I beat it really quick. Now OBLIVION is legendary. That was EPIC for me.

I like Eternal Sonata simply for its Battle System and visual style.

And if you're really into your old-school turn-based RPGs, you should really give Lost Odyssey a go, it's also got a great story.

Anyone looking for the best fighting game released since the first Soul Calibur NEEDS to get BlazBlue.

I feel like Mirror's Edge also received a lot of unfair criticism as well. It's the best thing to happen to platformers in a long time.

I also found Tales of Vesperia to be the best Xbox RPG released yet and I think anyone looking for a lengthy adventure with a well told plot, great characters and really fun battle system should play it.

I also find Eternal Sonata to be extremely under-rated by most. It's short and linear, but an excellent rookie effort and has possibly the best battle system of an RPG.

Also, Halo 3: ODST. I just don't get why people act all snobbish because the original plan was for an expansion and it evolved into something else. This is a fun and unique shooter, and I loved it. It isn't the greatest shooter ever made, but it is immaculately made with a great attention to detail and fun gunplay.

FEAR is another great shooter. If you've never played it on PC, the 360 port is excellent. It's spooky and atmospheric with intense gunfights, but not too many people paid much attention to the game since it came out like a week before Gears of War.

if you havent played condemned and condemned 2 you dont know how good a horror game can be, i mean i would put those up there with alone in the dark, the original, or eternal darkness.
