Games you champion that no one else seems to like

I'm a big fan of Legend of Legaia, I absolutely love the gameplay, and the story, while pretty typical is still pretty good. Still it seems whenever it gets mentioned anywhere its being panned. I know I'm not the only one who likes games that no one else seems to like.

    Crackdown, for the 360, I love it. Sure there isn't much story, and the "boss fights" are a little uninspired, but the freedom you have in game makes up for the flaws. I really hope they make another one.

    If I could just find that 500th orb...

    Oulaw Golf 2 for the Xbox. It had just the right mix of everything. Outlaw Golf, Outlaw Volleyball, and Outlaw Tennis are all bad, but Outlaw Golf 2 just had something about it. . .

    O_O!

    Finally! Another fan of L of L! I played the hell out of the game back in the day. It was my first RPG and I fell in love with it. i played through it at least 3 times. One straight up, then with a cheat guide and again just for kicks!

    Also I'm adding in DQ8. I barely knew anyone who played it and I maxed it out and got the alternate ending and everything.

    Also I remember liking Super Dodge Ball for the NES. I played that all day to the end multiple times!

    Everyone loves that game. At least everyone I know.

    Phantasy Star 3 for the Genesis would be that game. It was a least liked of the series.

    I was all alone in my love of that game growing up. :P

    While I'm not a big VGaming person, I have a friend who happens to be a big fan of Shaq Fu for the Sega Genesis. Don't ask me why, for I have no idea what goes on in that insane head of his.

    I could see someone being a fan of it in an ironic way.

    Shaq Fu is the greatest fighting game ever made.

    He does claim to enjoy it in a ironic way. However, actually trying to play through the game (and therefore become good at it) goes a bit beyond "ironic enjoyment" in my eyes.

    One Must Fall: 2097. You lose.

    There is no denying the sheer awesomeness that is OMF 2097. That is one amazing game. However, let's be honest. Soul Calibur 2 is the best fighting game so far.

    *thumbs up* ^_^

    I think my friends and I played the hell out of that game. We played until the disc stopped working!

    but wait...which version?

    GameCube, duh.

    Actually, I prefer the SCIII control scheme on the PS2. I'm not sure if SCII has the same controls, or different ones, but it's a lot easier to pull of complex moves with that setup than the GameCube. Of course, Link is worth the GC version anyway. :p
  • am_dragonam_dragon
    Enough about Soul Calibur, this is about games nobody else liked.
    Example: Third World War for the SegaCD. Turn-based geo-political warfare. You would try to rule the world with scientific, economic, political, and military decisions.

    No way! PS2 IMO.

    Same reasons as Anarkigi.

    Audiosurf is amazing. Play King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 2&3 by Neutral Milk Hotel. Loads of fun.

    I feel like I'm the only person in the world who loves Crash Team Racing (the original PS1 version) and prefers it over Mario Kart. Am I crazy, or does anyone else agree with me?

    Gemfire for the SNES.

    Aerobiz and Aerobiz Supersonic for the SNES.

    You're not: that was a great game.

    I love the Street FIgher Alpha series. I think Street FIghter Alpha 2 is my favorite Street Fighter game. I mostly hear people complaining about how much they hate the Alpha series.

    Actually, the Crash Bandicoot series (until after the third one) was very good. The series gets a really bad name from the crappy newer games. The racing game was really good, though.

    Other than the fact that I think E.T. is just bad and not horrendously terrible, I can't think of any games I like that are actively hated by many other people. However, I don't think that many people other than myself are big fans of Dynamite Headdy and Alfred Chicken.
  • am_dragonam_dragon
    GameFan had a big write up on Dynamite Headdy back in the day. I bought it the first chance I had, and was so disappointed when I got home. I was pissed I wasted my money on that game.
