Games that people/critics were too harsh on?

Speaking of Sonic, Sonic Adventure 2. The level design is mediocre and completely undermined the openness of the first one, but even if you take the entire main quest as a mildly-fun series of mini games through which you collect things for your Chao, it's worth the money. I've played Sonic Adventure 2: Battle more than most games, I think. Couldn't get enough Chao.

(And the fact that we haven't gotten another Chao game baffles me to this day.)
