Underrated/Overlooked games that became overrated

Another vote for ICO. A Zelda clone, with only one dungeon, no bosses, easier puzzles and no challenging bad guys. I bought it while it was rare for $40 and was psyched to play it. I beat it in 4.5 hours, so disappointed. I thought it had good art direction though, but as a game total rubbish.

How is it a Zelda clone?

ICO/Shadow of The Colossus are entirely different games from Zelda. If anything, It's Zelda Twilight Princess that was influenced by the visual technology of ICO and possibly the opening of Shadow of The Colossus.

Its a 3d action platformer. Its been at least 4 years but I remember  dungeon like areas, platforming, puzzles, bad guys in the same camera view. Its more appropriate to say Zelda dungeon clone as I dont remember any plot in ICO(not that Zelda games have any deep plots themselves) and there was no where to go like towns in a Zelda game. I cant speak on Z:TP as I have slowly played the series over the course of my life chronologically and I am at Wind Waker. I never said it was like SOTC, I havent played it though it seems like a cool game idea.
