I'd also go with Psychonauts. I understand that it's not technically "under-rated", however the public at large complted ignored it, and so I woul say that it was rather "under-rated" by the people that matter most- the consumer.
(I did play the Xbox360 version, so perhaps my complaints are nullified in the PC version, though I doubt it.)
I agree. The dialogue was excellent, the game as a whole was pretty atmospheric, the graphics were solid,but I suppose I never really got into it. The enemies are pretty dull. There are only 3 basevarieties, not creative or revolutionary in any way, and although the game seems to encourage using your creativity to find ways to use up all of your Adam on one enemy, I feel that it's just easier to use other weapons. I'll create a much more indepth review at some point, but I'll probably give it a 6.0-6.5
In my opinion the Halo name does carry a fanbase behind it, and I think that it will sell well the first couple days, but if it's Big Rigs bad, word of mouth and negative site reception will bring it down, and there will be a steep sales drop afterwards.
I think that it's going to be what the Halo series has been so far: mediocre. It'll have some great moments, but the mistakes will end up breaking the game.
