Games everyone forgot about

Here's one I wish wasn't forgotten and instead got a kickass reboot. This game was so cool but clearly ahead of its technical limitation times. It had John Woo shit in it like if you blasted someone with a shotgun next to a window they could actually fly through the window. Also, it had a taser that would set dudes on fire if you held it long enough. Game was way ahead of its time.

Why this series hasn't been rebooted/updated is truly beyond me. Even the PSP games were awesome.

Summoner for PS2 came to mind. 
 

Zone of the Enders 1-2 for that matter but they are certainly more popular. 
 

I feel like the Xenosaga games are kind of forgotten RPGs.

 

Croc Legend of the Gobbos maybe was never known to begin with but I thought that was a delightful platformer in its day.

Syphon Filter AAA Sony first party reboot not having happened is criminal. It should have already happened, and the fact it hasn't makes no sense.

I loved this shit more than Mario Cart at the time. 

 

Beetle Adventure Racing's physics code was legendary, right? I feel like I have the physics in that game memorized.

I just remember it looking really good at the time and tried to play like a Zelda game. I'm sure the game is an embarrassment now.


It always was IMO.  As you said, great looking at the time.  But if suffered from a world design that made you backtrack to and fro across a single path to continue on.  Hitting the same levers and switches to open gates along the way.

 

Thank goodness it wasn’t longer.  I’m surprised Rare designed a game like this.

I'd say Eternal Poison is another one, but I guess you can't really say people forgot about it if no one knew about it to begin with. It's a tactics RPG that came out at the end of the PS2's life cycle and didn't get very good reviews. I think it's pretty good, though.

I don't know if these actually count as forgotten, more just like not talked about much.

 

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System

Midtown Madness (specifically 3 for me)

Marathon

Myth

Dino Crisis

Phantasmagoria

Brute Force (Halo killer lol)

Skate or Die

Paperboy

Thinking about old PS2-era JRPGs, I can't be the only one that likes Shadow Hearts, right? I really liked their battle engine. I think the devs that made them went under, though. They cranked out like three or four of those in a pretty short span of time.

The first one was a little rough around the edges, but the second one was a classic. The third one might have been made by a different dev,I can't remember. It was alright.

 

(By the way I own all three and I'm going to be selling all of my games soon:sun:)

Dunno how forgotten it is but I loved this years ago. I fucking played thru this game with a guy I met on XBL while playing Halo. I know Crystal Chronicles received a remake, but I don't think this one did. I don't want it to either. Would I would like to see is a more adultier CC game. Looking at videos for it now, it is a bit way too much of a kiddie game. They should Ys it up.
