Let's see...

Final Fantasy 9: It's an ok game, but it's a disgrace compared to the rest of the series, horrible story, cliched characters, boring battle system

(gets out my pitch fork).  I've always thought FF9 was underrated.  Recently, though, it has gained some popularity.  It does remain one of my favorite games ever.

It has the highest metacritic of any FF ever, so I doubt it is
