Forums - Nintendo - Most Underated Game of The Year

Commando on 04 January 2009

Yeah.... I think I side with the people who say download games, but then again it's hard judge them on an even scale considering it's similar to reviewing new SNES games if they were to come out... I dunno.

I guess so far it seems like Sonic Unleashed got bashed pretty bad, but since I haven't been able to play too much of that title I don't really want to give that as "my final answer". I guess from what I have played I'll have to say MK vs. DC Universe. I thoroughly enjoy it and it takes me back to the classic days of MK. I really think they did a great job with it.

Oh! and I would also nominate Alone in the dark.

I believe there was a discussion last night about that on one of the threads. Again I have only demo'd it, but my impression was that got a really raw deal from reviewers. That actually may very well be the most underrated game of the year.

Aw, you came back for my Birthday! :'( (right?...)

I'll go with Prince of Persia too. Played it to the end and then immediately went back and started a second playthrough. That's something I don't often do.

Well Happy Birthday!!!

(yes I do know that you were talking to ArtofAngels)

 

-edit- also grats on finally hitting 4,000 AoA!

Okami (Wii), of course. Only 90% metacritic!
On another note, either Mario Kart or Wii Music; I lean towards Mario Kart, as the sales/reviews proportion is so gigantic.



Okami

To lavish praise upon this title, the assumption of a common plateau between player and game must be made.  I won't open my unworthy mouth.

For me, it was Pixeljunk Monsters as well as NHL 09.

Mario Kart Wii of course. This game showed us that reviewers can be shitty often.
The same with One Piece Unlimited Adventure. This game deserves better sales and reviews. Can't understand why it has a 65%?
I didn't like Kirby games but the SuperStar Ultra is great. For me, it's a underrated game. The same with Japanese training from Ubisoft.

Wario Land: Shake It!

It came in the time when the disaster of E3 and the Nintendo hate was fresh in everyone's minds, so it was ignored beyond what it should have been



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
