Post any game you think should get more respect [IMG]http://1.fwcdn.pl/po/56/41/615641/7381138.3.jpg[/IMG] One of my favorite games, I have a funny story to tell [B]The Dino perpetrator[/B] [IMG]http://gyazo.com/b4a4d1b2d877098c5562cf1fbb3bc9ca.png[/IMG] I was in the middle of the forest trying to find a way how to get up the fence to the maintenance shed. So I got this plankand for 5 minutes try to figure out how to get up the fence with it (the controls arn't that easy, but I don't care). There were no dinosaurs around, I couldn't see anything in the distance in the dense fog. So I continue my puzzle, but... all a sudden I hear stomping coming near.I look behind me....and screamed. A giant dinosaur was behind me, I ran up the plank just in time to get over the fence. My heart was still beating. The dinosaur just cocked his head, and with his somewhat simplistic dino AI, did not leave but stayed where he was, as if he was circling me. I was trapped for a while until I figured out how to outsmart him
The Darkness games. They're really fun games but I don't see many people talk about them. The first one is console only but I think it's better than the second.
Hitman: Codename 47.
I don't know, Codename 47 doesn't hold up that well today even if it is underrated.

Gonna get some shit for this, but: [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f1/Fableiii.jpg[/img] I loved it. I thought the combat, gamespace, story, and character customization were great. Sure, it didn't have the moral choice system the past two Fable games had, but not every game needs one of those to be good. It may not be a good Fable game, but I still thought it was a good game.
Darkest Of Days, I hope the sequel is still being made. ):
Enter the Matrix. Also misread OP's as Dino Penetrator at first.
Also, [t]http://image.gamespotcdn.net/gamespot/images/box/1/4/2/991142_205533_front.jpg[/t] Loved pretty much everything about this game, except for the slightly lackluster story, and lack of real music. Though, the combat and weapon systems are without a doubt, some of [i]the best[/i] I've played.
[QUOTE=TheKritter71;40436839]Oh lawdy yes[/QUOTE] Good lord, I love that game too. I still have a disc lying around for it, I wonder if it'll work on this computer.
[img]http://downrightupleft.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/brink-box-art.jpg[/img] I don't even remember why this game went over as badly as it did, I think it had some launch problems, but it was a really good game overall. I nice blend of "modern realistic" and a bit more stylized FPS gameplay, with a movement system somewhat reminiscent of Mirror's Edge (only it actually worked), it also did a pretty interesting job of blending single and multiplayer, shame nobody plays it.

[img] http://filesmelt.com/dl/Dark_Messiah_of_Might_and_Magic_Coverart.png[/img] One of my all time favorite games and super underrated.
[t]http://i40.tinypic.com/2yn2n1g.png[/t] and by extension, the easteregg game built into it [t]http://i43.tinypic.com/4kutmc.png[/t] [editline]edit[/editline] Also... [t]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/c9/TMTN3_CoverArt.jpg/256px-TMTN3_CoverArt.jpg[/t] It also had a great sound track [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhFCSS5kf-k[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUobNX53E5s[/media]
[QUOTE=Shadowwalker;40437245][img] http://filesmelt.com/dl/Dark_Messiah_of_Might_and_Magic_Coverart.png[/img] One of my all time favorite games and super underrated.[/QUOTE] Underrated?
LA Noire what's so funny about that bro?
[I]Arc The Lad Twilight Of The Spirits.[/I] The game had incredibly standard gameplay but it's story was amazing. It had good characters, interesting lore and some pretty amazing twists. Bebedora.
Dino Island. It's just Jurassic Park but nothing goes wrong.
Homefront The single-player is short and kinda boring, and there are graphic issues every now and then, but the multiplayer is worth it. Granted, the DLC shotgun and Scout Heli are overpowered, but you learn how to deal with them after a while. [sp]Too bad you unlock the Proximity Launcher, ONLY good weapon against helis, at level 31. Your best friend will be the drone with lock-on rockets, but good luck killing someone with that thing.[/sp]

[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/73/TimeShift_coverart.jpg[/img] This really deserved a sequel.

The art direction in that game was incredible.
Fallout new Vegas. It got a lot of hate on launch for its iffy presentation and launch bugs, but when you consider how much more complex it is than fallout 3 it was kinda justifiable. Bethesda basically worked obsidian like slaves, and then made them release the game when it was only half done. Even still though, being half developed it was way larger and more fallout like than 3. Pretty impressive when you consider the fact they were only given a year and a half to develop it.
[IMG]http://www.systemrequirements.in/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/vivisector-beast-within.jpg[/IMG] Vivisector: Beast Within This is a game that held my attention for a while when I first played it, and got me into the FPS genre. I lost my copy god knows where, so if the demo is a sign of the quality, I'll pick it up again. Fun Fact: It was originally going to be a Duke Nukem game. EDIT: Played 1 out of the two demos, and my jaw hit the floor when I blasted the flesh of a subhuman abomination, and not in the Quake 2 way. Flesh dynamically flying off the bone. Holy shit.
Every Shin Megami Tensei game ever also Drakengard
