underated games.

Anachronox - an RPG using the ancient quake engine (I think) good humour, quirky characters and epic story line that made me sink hours into.
Archimedian Dynasty - brilliant little futuristic, underwater sub adventure. Nice story and fun phyiscs for the day.

One that's just popped into my head is Shogo: MAD. released at the wrong time and got buried, which is a shame

DmC (Devil May Cry)

awesome game, even on PC

I had anachronox. Was good. There are many old RPGs that were underrated.

I think NOX was one as well, think it was an old sierra game.

Thanks for the reminder about this Was having a snoop around and saw a mod called Warlords which is a Starwars mod for homeworld 2. Might have to dig my copy out and try this, gives me 2 fixes in one.

Also I can't believe I forgot this one (again on a Starwars note)... Star Wars: Rebellion. I remember ploughing hours into this game when it came out, an absolute gem of a game, makes we wan't to find a SW mod for Imperium Galactica 2 also (again this one is worth a go).

Mentioned star wars rebellion earlier. Classic game. I used to rename all my star destroyers to names from the film lol. I also used to build the death star on endor.....very sad I know.

Also used to enjoy the B5 mod for star trek armada 2

Speaking of the trek.

Hidden Evil for underdog, droped under the radar during the million and one pc releases per week/month era...

Messiah.

You played as a cherub called Bob that crawled up people's bums to posses them. Seriously.

Another game I think is criminally underrated, and overlooked is Nexus: The Jupiter Incident. Loved that game!

Singularity gets my vote, I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did.

Top, top game ... absolute cracker..!

Good game, didn't it start out as an other title? and the design studio got bought out or something and it get changed.

Still one of my favourite games of all time. Although i'm not aware of what changes the community made. This might result in another play through if significantly different. Anyone got some links?

The community patches fixed a fair few bugs. Recovered some storylines that were broken and not in original game. Spelling mistakes. Worth it.

Psychonauts
killer 7
mafia 2 (story line in that game was just amazing.)
Project Zomboid

Beyond Good and Evil - epic story line and great fun.
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay / Dark Athena - both absolutely superb games, very atmospheric, if you buy DA then you get an updated EFBB thrown in for free. They're absolutely superb games and everyone should play them - the voice acting alone is worth it (Vin Diesel).
