00:00Alright, so look, every year we get a million trailers, a million sequels, and somehow a
00:04bunch of absolute bangers still slip under everyone's radar.
00:08So today, we're fixing that.
00:09These are 50 criminally underrated games every gamer should play at least once.
00:14And no, this isn't one of those hidden gems lists where the same three indie games show
00:18up.
00:19This is real stuff.
00:20PlayStation, Xbox, PC, all mixed.
00:23So let's talk about some games that deserved way better.
00:32Lost Judgment is one of those games that looks like just another Yakuza spinoff, but once
00:37you get into it, it's honestly way more layered than people expect.
00:42The mix of detective work, school investigations, brutal hand to hand combat, and surprisingly
00:47emotional storytelling hits in a way most action games don't even try.
00:52You're constantly switching between chasing clues, teaching delinquents, cracking jokes,
00:57and then jumping into serious courtroom drama.
01:00It moves fast, has tons of side content, and never feels boring.
01:04It deserved way more recognition, especially considering how polished the combat and writing
01:10are.
01:11If you want a game that balances goofy fun with dark themes without feeling messy, this is
01:15seriously worth playing.
01:22Immortals of Avium is basically what you'd get if someone mashed a flashy magic system
01:31into a full AAA FPS structure and said, yeah, let's make it insane.
01:36The spell shooting feels incredibly fast, colorful, and loud, and once the game clicks, you start
01:42swapping spells like you're playing a magical doom.
01:45The problem is it launched during a crowded year, so nobody noticed it.
01:49Which is a shame, because the world building, enemy variety, and sheer visual style are unique.
01:54The story is pretty straightforward, but still entertaining, and the combat is the real star.
01:59Smooth, satisfying, and full of wild abilities.
02:03If you want something different from the usual guns and grenades, this is a legit hidden gem.
02:08Murdered Soul Suspect is one of the strangest, most atmospheric detective games ever made,
02:20and that's exactly why it deserves more love.
02:23You play as a ghost trying to solve your own murder, drifting through Salem, reading people's
02:28thoughts, slipping through walls, and piecing together clues in a world that feels eerie without
02:32being full horror.
02:34The gameplay is simple, but the vibe is what hooks you.
02:38It's slow, moody, and almost relaxing at times.
02:42The story leans heavily into supernatural mystery, and even though the combat encounters aren't
02:47amazing, the concept itself carries the whole experience.
02:51If you enjoy narrative-driven games with a unique twist, this one is short, different,
02:57and totally worth a single playthrough.
03:07Inversion is one of those mid-budget shooters that tried something wild, gravity manipulating
03:11combat, and honestly pulled it off better than anyone gave it credit for.
03:15It looks like a standard third-person shooter at first, but once you start tossing enemies
03:19into the air, walking on walls, and watching entire arenas flip upside down, it becomes a
03:25lot more memorable.
03:26The story is basic, but serviceable, and the game makes up for it with constantly shifting
03:31level design and fun physics-driven firefights.
03:35It feels like a lost PS3-era experiment that deserved a better spotlight.
03:40If you enjoy games that mix familiar shooting with a weird mechanic that actually works, inversion
03:45is way better than people assume.
03:56Wet is pure grindhouse synergy, stylish, messy, loud, and absolutely committed to its vibe.
04:03You play as Ruby, a badass stunt-shooting acrobat who slides, flips, dives, and slow motions
04:08through every firefight like she's starring in her own chaotic action movie.
04:12The gameplay isn't deep, but it's undeniably fun, and the entire game feels like a love
04:17letter to over-the-top 70s action cinema.
04:20The soundtrack, the comic book cutscenes, the attitude, everything is drenched in personality.
04:27It's definitely rough around the edges, but that roughness is kind of the charm.
04:32If you like games that focus on stylish shooting and nonstop momentum, Wet is the definition
04:37of an underrated cult classic.
04:47Death of the Outsider gets overlooked because people treat it like a side expansion, but
04:51it's actually one of the most refined stealth sandbox experiences Arcane ever made.
04:57Starting as Billy Lurk gives you a whole new toolset, no mana management, flexible powers,
05:03and a focus on creative infiltration over stacking upgrades.
05:07The levels feel tight and replayable, the contracts add fun optional challenges, and the story wraps
05:13up the Outsider arc in a more personal, human way than expected.
05:18It's shorter than the main game, sure, but the quality is genuinely top tier, and the freedom
05:24you get in each mission makes every run feel different, easily one of the most overlooked
05:29immersive sims.
05:39Hard Reset Redux is a full blast, cyberpunk, old-school shooter that just wants you to stop
05:44thinking and start blowing up robots in neon-lit alleys.
05:48It's fast, loud, and unapologetically chaotic, mixing classic arena shooter design with a gritty
05:54Blade Runner vibe.
05:56The weapon system is cool because one gun transforms into multiple modes, turning every fight into
06:01a flashy, explosive mess.
06:04It doesn't care about long cutscenes or complicated plots, it's all about pure shooter satisfaction.
06:09The Redux version smooths out the gameplay and adds new moves, making it even more fun to
06:14replay.
06:15If you miss the energy of classic PC shooters, this one scratches that itch perfectly.
06:28Bound by Flame is the definition of a janky but charming RPG, where the ambition seriously
06:33outweighs the budget.
06:34You're basically a mercenary possessed by a fire demon, and the game constantly forces
06:40you into moral choices about how much of that power you'll actually use.
06:44The combat is rough but addictive, the crafting system is surprisingly deep for a small game,
06:50and the world has that old-school Euro RPG vibe that feels raw in a good way.
06:56The story goes places you don't expect, and your decisions actually impact the ending, which
07:02a lot of bigger games don't even manage.
07:04It's flawed, but in that lovable, interesting way that keeps you thinking about it afterward.
07:17The Pathless is a movement-driven adventure that sticks with you because of how smooth and
07:22meditative it feels.
07:23There's no map clutter, no waypoints.
07:25You just explore using your eagle companion and your bow to glide across massive environments.
07:31It's one of those games where the act of traveling is the main joy, and solving puzzles or fighting
07:37bosses feels like a natural part of the flow instead of interruptions.
07:41The art style is gorgeous, the soundtrack is perfect, and the whole world feels peaceful even when things
07:47get intense.
07:48It's short, but incredibly atmospheric, and it proves you don't need a giant checklist to make exploration meaningful.
08:03Kingdoms of Amalur is basically a giant fantasy RPG where the combat is so fluid and fun that
08:09it puts a lot of modern action RPGs to shame.
08:12The world is colorful, packed with quests, and surprisingly relaxing to roam around in.
08:18And the lore, written with help from R.A. Salvatore, actually gives the game a strong identity.
08:25What makes it special is how fast and responsive everything feels.
08:29You can chain magic, melee, and ranged attacks with zero clunkiness.
08:34It's huge, replayable, and perfect for players who like open world fantasy but want combat
08:40that feels satisfying instead of stiff.
08:44Despite its messy launch history, it remains one of the most enjoyable RPGs of its era.
08:58Alienation is one of those games that feels way more polished than people expect from a top-down
09:02shooter.
09:03Dark absolutely nailed the movement, explosions, and enemy swarms, making every mission feel
09:08intense without ever being unfair.
09:11It mixes arcade-style action with light looter mechanics so you're constantly upgrading
09:16your gear, tweaking builds, and diving back into missions just to perfect your runs.
09:22Co-op is where it really shines.
09:24Three players blasting aliens with flashy abilities feels chaotic in the best way.
09:29The game looks slick, controls beautifully, and has that just one more mission loop that
09:34keeps you hooked.
09:34It deserved far more attention than it ever got.
09:45Mankind Divided is criminally underrated simply because people were expecting a giant world-ending
09:50story but what we got instead was a sharp, focused, incredibly detailed, immersive sim.
09:55The level design is ridiculous.
09:57Prague alone feels like a massive, interconnected puzzle full of events, hidden stories, and
10:02surprising player freedom.
10:04Whether you stealth, hack, or go full combat, the game always responds in a satisfying way.
10:10The new augmentations are fun to experiment with, and the side quests are genuinely better
10:15than many main missions in other games.
10:17The only thing holding it back was its abrupt ending, but everything leading up to it is
10:21premium immersive sim perfection.
10:32The 2014 Lords of the Fallen gets overshadowed by every soulslike that came after, but honestly,
10:38it was way better than people give it credit for.
10:41It has a chunky, weighty combat system that rewards patience without feeling slow, and
10:47the world has this cool, heavy, dark fantasy vibe.
10:51The bosses aren't too hard, but they're fun, and the game is approachable for players who
10:55want a soulslike that doesn't punish every tiny mistake.
11:00The progression feels satisfying, the armor designs are awesome, and the soundtrack is surprisingly
11:05memorable.
11:06It's rough around the edges, but it has a charm that keeps it enjoyable even today.
11:20Alan Wake's original game is still one of the most atmospheric horror thrillers ever made.
11:27It feels like playing through a weird mix of a TV show, a mystery novel, and a moody Pacific
11:32Northwest nightmare.
11:33The flashlight and gun combat seem simple at first, but it becomes tense and satisfying
11:39as enemies swarm in the dark.
11:41What really sells it is the storytelling.
11:44Alan's narration, the manuscript pages, the strange radio shows, you feel like you're
11:48inside a Stephen King fever dream.
11:51It's not super long, but every episode pulls you deeper into its surreal world.
11:56Easily one of Remedy's most memorable games, and completely worth revisiting.
12:09Bulletstorm is an unapologetic, loud, stylish FPS that wants you to stop playing seriously
12:15and start playing creatively.
12:16The entire skillshot system pushes you to kick enemies into spikes, juggle them in mid-air,
12:22and use the environment like a playground of destruction.
12:24It's all about having fun with chaos.
12:28The humor is crude, but self-aware.
12:31The world is colorful, and the pace never really slows down.
12:35What makes it underrated is that most players saw the marketing and assumed it was just another
12:40edgy shooter, but the mechanics are genuinely clever.
12:44Once you get into the score-chasing mindset, Bulletstorm becomes one of the most entertaining
12:49shooters of its time.
12:54Shadows of the Damned is one of those absolutely wild collaborations that feels like it escaped
13:04from a chaotic fever dream.
13:05Suda51's weird humor, mixed with Shinji Mikami's action design, gives you a game that's part
13:11grindhouse comedy, part demon hunting shooter, and somehow it all works.
13:16You're running around hell making jokes with your talking gun, fighting freaky enemies,
13:21and switching between light and darkness mechanics that keep combat interesting.
13:25It's rough and unpolished, but the personality is insane, loud, weird, and totally unapologetic.
13:32It's the kind of game you play once and never forget because nothing else has its energy
13:37or attitude.
13:48Binary Domain is a sleeper hit that delivers way more than you'd expect from a sci-fi squad
13:52shooter.
13:53The gunplay feels punchy, especially when you blow chunks off robots and watch them keep
13:57crawling toward you like unstoppable nightmares.
14:00The story actually hits surprisingly hard, diving into themes about AI and humanity long before
14:06it became trendy.
14:07The voice command system was ahead of its time, even if it was messy, and the squad choices
14:12genuinely affect character relationships.
14:15It's a bit clunky visually, but the gameplay and narrative weight make it stand out, easily
14:20one of Sega's most underrated projects.
14:22Singularity is that FPS everyone mentions once, says, oh yeah, that was good, and then completely
14:37forgets existed.
14:38The time manipulation glove makes the combat and puzzles feel fresh, letting you age enemies,
14:44rewind broken objects, and reshape the environment to your advantage.
14:48It borrows ideas from Bioshock and Half-Life, but blends them into something that feels surprisingly
14:54distinct.
14:55The story jumps between timelines and conspiracies in a way that's engaging without ever getting
15:01confusing.
15:02Raven Software absolutely nailed the pacing, and the atmosphere is still great today.
15:08If you're into old school shooters with a cool gimmick, this is one of the best forgotten
15:12ones.
15:22Condemned is one of the most unsettling and grounded horror games ever.
15:26No cheap jump scares, just pure dread and brutal first person melee combat.
15:30You're an investigator crawling through abandoned buildings, chasing a serial killer, while the
15:34world around you feels sick, rotten, and unpredictable.
15:38The sound design is terrifying, the flashlight barely helps, and the enemies feel desperate instead of
15:44supernatural, which somehow makes them scarier.
15:47The crime scene investigation parts break up the tension nicely, and the atmosphere sticks
15:52with you long after you stop playing.
15:54It's an early Xbox 360 gem that still holds up because of how raw and realistic it feels.
16:04Gravity Rush 2 is one of the most unique action games ever made, and it deserved way more love
16:15than it got.
16:16Controlling gravity with cat feels incredibly fun.
16:19You're basically flying, falling, and launching yourself across massive floating cities with
16:24total freedom.
16:26The art style is gorgeous, the world is vibrant, and the soundtrack gives everything a dreamy anime
16:32adventure vibe.
16:33The missions vary a lot, the combat gets surprisingly deep once you start swapping gravity styles,
16:39and the story expands the universe in a much richer way than the first game.
16:43It's stylish, creative, and has a soul most modern games lack.
16:55Immortals Fenyx Rising got written off as a Zelda clone, but once you actually play it you
17:00realize how fun and charming it is.
17:03The movement is smooth, the puzzles are clever without being annoying, and the combat has
17:07a fast, arcade-y rhythm that keeps everything lively.
17:11The world is bright, colorful, and honestly just nice to exist in, with that Ubisoft-style
17:17exploration that works best when it's not drowning in grind.
17:20The humor is goofy, the gods have personality, and Fenyx is an easy protagonist to root for.
17:26It never pretends to be a huge epic.
17:28It's just a good time from start to finish, which makes it way more underrated than people
17:33want.
17:34The RE3 remake caught a lot of heat for being shorter than people wanted, but looked at it
17:46on its own, it's a tight, fast-paced action horror ride that barely wastes a second.
17:51Jill is amazing in this version, the city looks incredible, and Nemesis, while not as unpredictable
17:59as Mr. X, still brings enough chaos to keep things tense.
18:03The gunplay feels crisp, the dodge mechanic is addicting once you nail the timing, and the
18:08pacing is so smooth that replaying it actually becomes part of the fun.
18:13It's one of those games where every run teaches you a faster, cleaner route, and that makes
18:17it stand out even today.
18:26Dark Messiah is basically a first-person physics playground disguised as a fantasy RPG.
18:32Half the combat is just kicking enemies into spike traps, off cliffs, or through tables,
18:36and somehow, it never gets old.
18:38The swordplay is crunchy, the magic feels powerful, and the level design constantly encourages
18:42creative chaos.
18:44The story is simple but effective, and the choices you make actually influence the ending.
18:48It's one of those games where the mechanics are so fun that you instantly forgive the
18:51jank.
18:52No modern fantasy game really captures this exact blend of physics, action, and RPG elements,
18:58which is why hardcore fans still swear by it.
19:08The Technomancer is one of those AA sci-fi RPGs that tried to do way more than its budget
19:13realistically allowed, but still manages to be weirdly compelling.
19:17The combat system gives you 3 different fighting styles to switch between the faction politics
19:23keep quests interesting, and the world has that dusty, broken Mars aesthetic you don't
19:28see often.
19:29It's messy in spots, sure, but the ambition shines through everywhere.
19:33Branching dialogue, multiple endings, and choices that actually affect characters down the
19:37line.
19:38If you enjoy Euro RPGs with heart and personality, this one is rough but rewarding in that classic
19:43Spider-Studio way.
19:44Thief 2014 caught a ton of criticism at launch, but when you play it now, it's actually a solid
19:58stealth game with a great atmosphere.
20:01The city feels grimy and lived in, the lighting is incredible and sneaking through mansions, brothels,
20:07and abandoned towers scratches that classic stealth itch.
20:11The game shines when you take your time, picking locks, scouting guard paths, looting rooms, and
20:16slipping through shadows like a ghost.
20:19It misses some of the depth of the old Thief games, but on its own, it still delivers a moody,
20:24slow burn stealth experience that rewards patience.
20:27It deserved a way better reception.
20:37The Saboteur is one of those open world games that people barely remember, yet it had some
20:41of the coolest stylistic ideas of its generation.
20:44You're running around Nazi-occupied Paris as an Irish resistance fighter, blowing up bases,
20:51rescuing allies, and slowly turning grayscale districts back into full color as you liberate
20:57them.
20:58It blends stealth, parkour, shooting, and sabotage in a way that feels messy but charming.
21:05The world is packed with little moments, bars, rooftops, secret tunnels, and the whole vibe
21:10feels like a stylish revenge fantasy with a noir twist.
21:15It's flawed but full of personality, and that's what makes it stick with you long after the
21:20credits roll.
21:29Far Cry Primal is easily the boldest experiment Ubisoft has done with the series, and it pays
21:34off way more than people think.
21:36Stripping away guns and vehicles turns the game into this raw, survival-focused adventure
21:40where you hunt, gather, tame beasts, and fight rival tribes with spears and clubs.
21:46The world feels ancient and dangerous, and the animals you command genuinely change how
21:51you approach fights.
21:52It's slower and more methodical than modern Far Cry, but that's exactly why it works.
21:57The atmosphere, the language system, and the brutal combat make it stand out as a totally
22:01different kind of open world game.
22:12Bramble the Mountain King is a dark fairytale adventure that looks cute at first, but quickly
22:16dives into some seriously haunting stuff.
22:19It's inspired by Scandinavian folklore, so every creature you meet feels both magical and unsettling.
22:25The game mixes slow, atmospheric exploration with tense chase moments and emotional storytelling
22:32that hits way harder than you expect.
22:35The visuals are stunning, especially the small-scale environments that make you feel tiny in a massive
22:41world.
22:42It's not a long game, but it leaves a strong impression thanks to its art style, music,
22:47and surprisingly heavy themes.
22:49If you like atmospheric narrative games, this one's a must play.
23:01Prey is one of the smartest immersive sims ever made, but it got buried by mixed marketing
23:05and a confusing name.
23:07The Talosai space station is basically a giant sandbox full of secrets, alternate paths, weird
23:13alien powers, and clever environmental tricks.
23:16The mimics keep you paranoid, the crafting system is addictive, and the freedom to solve problems
23:21in your own way makes every playthrough feel different.
23:24The story slowly builds into something genuinely mind-bending, and the side quests add a ton
23:28of depth to the world.
23:30It's tense, creative, and brilliantly designed, easily one of Arcane's best, even if people
23:35slept on it.
23:44Fighting Dogs is one of the most satisfying open world action games ever, and it's criminal
23:49how underrated it still is.
23:51The hand to hand combat is basically open world Batman with more brutality, the driving
23:56actually feels good, and the undercover cop story has real emotional weight.
24:01Hong Kong is full of life, from back alley brawls to neon soaked night markets, and the missions
24:07balance drama with crazy action in the best way.
24:11The game never overstays its welcome, and everything, from the side activities to the voice acting,
24:16feels polished.
24:18It's the kind of open world game that sticks with you because it's focused, stylish, and
24:23full of heart.
24:28Spec Ops, the line pretends to be a standard military shooter until it rips the rug out
24:37from under you and starts asking the kind of questions most shooters avoid.
24:41The gunplay is solid enough, but the real power is how the story slowly turns you into the thing
24:48you thought you were fighting, morally compromised and deeply uncomfortable.
24:54The Dubai setting is haunting, full of sand choked skyscrapers and ruined luxury that gives
24:59every firefight heavy context.
25:02It's short, brutal, and deliberately upsetting, and that's why it's underrated.
25:06Most players expected mindless action, and instead got a game that sticks in your head and wrecks
25:10your expectations.
25:11Play it for the narrative hit you won't forget.
25:14Mad Max nails the desert survival fantasy better than any movie tie-in has a right to.
25:27Driving is the centerpiece, and the vehicular combat is ridiculously satisfying.
25:33You spend as much time upgrading cars as you do looting junkyards, and the progression
25:38loop of scavenging parts to make a louder, meaner ride is addictive in a trashy, greasy way.
25:45The world feels harsh and lonely, which suits the setting.
25:48When you finally catch a convoy or boss car, it feels earned.
25:52The on-foot combat is rough but functional.
25:55And the atmosphere, endless sand, ruined metal, desperate scavengers, sells the fantasy hard.
26:02It's a weird little gem that scratches a specific, post-apocalyptic itch.
26:15A plague tale sneaks up on you emotionally, what looks like a stealth puzzle game about
26:19two kids surviving medieval horrors becomes this gutting story about family and survival.
26:25The rat sequences are legitimately tense and inventive.
26:28You're not just hiding from people, you're navigating swarms of something truly monstrous
26:32and watching the world warp around them.
26:35The relationship between Amicia and Hugo drives everything so the game's quiet moments land
26:40as hard as the big ones.
26:41It's cinematic without being shallow, brutal without being gratuitous,
26:45and the world building is detailed enough to feel lived in.
26:49If you want a narrative experience that sticks, this one's a must play.
26:58Vampyr is a strange, moody RPG where every kill actually matters.
27:06Literally, because feeding on citizens changes your world and the story in real ways.
27:12The combat blends swordplay and blood powers, but the real tension is moral.
27:18Do you become a monster to gain strength, or do you spare townsfolk and keep your humanity?
27:23That choice system gives weight to every encounter and side quest,
27:27making the streets of post-WWI London feel personal and haunted.
27:31The aesthetic is gothic, the writing leans into noir,
27:34and the atmosphere keeps you uneasy in the best way.
27:37It's rough around the edges, but offers a meaningful twist on the usual RPG moral dilemmas.
27:43That voice in my head.
27:50Enslaved Odyssey to the West is a surprisingly touching action adventure that pairs tight
27:55platforming with the story about two people trying to survive together after civilization collapses.
28:01The relationship between Monkey and Trip is the heart of the game. Funny, flirty, then real.
28:07And the world of overgrown ruins draped in tech relics looks fantastic.
28:12Combat mixes melee and tech tools in a way that feels responsive but never overwhelming,
28:18and the pacing balances action with quieter, character-driven moments.
28:22It's short, focused, and emotionally honest, which makes it stick out among forgettable action
28:28titles. Definitely worth revisiting if you missed it the first time.
28:39The Order 1886 is a short, cinematic action game that a lot of people wrote off as just a
28:44pretty tech demo, but it's more than that. The world is lush, Victorian London reimagined with a
28:49steampunk twist, and the story mixes historical intrigue with werewolf fighting action.
28:55Combat is tight, with an emphasis on cover and timing, and the weapons feel weighty, precise,
29:00and satisfying to use. It's not a long game, but every scene feels deliberate, the cutscenes are
29:07beautifully directed, and the atmosphere is unmatched. If you can forgive the short length,
29:13it's a unique experience that modern action games rarely replicate.
29:25The Evil Within 2 takes the solid foundations of the first game and expands them into a truly terrifying,
29:32emotionally grounded horror experience. You're constantly juggling limited ammo, scarce resources,
29:39and horrific enemies that feel alive in a world warped by psychological nightmares.
29:43The story is dark, personal, and surprisingly touching as you try to save your daughter while
29:49descending into chaos. Exploration feels meaningful, stealth is rewarding, and combat is tense without
29:56ever feeling cheap. It's one of those rare horror games that keeps you on edge and emotionally invested
30:03at the same time, yet it never got the praise it deserved.
30:15Shadow of War improves on everything Shadow of Mordor did, right while expanding the nemesis system
30:21into full blown orc politics. Recruiting and betraying orcs, building your army, and conquering fortresses,
30:28adds this emergent storytelling that's endlessly entertaining. Combat is fluid, with satisfying combos
30:35and enemy reactions that make every encounter feel dynamic. The open world is big and alive with
30:41side quests that actually matter in shaping your orc army. Story-wise, it leans into epic fantasy,
30:47but the real highlight is seeing the personalities and rivalries emerge organically. It's chaotic,
30:53fun, and highly replayable, yet still underrated. Metal Gear Rising. Revengeance is pure, unfiltered
31:09adrenaline. A ridiculously over the top action game where you slice enemies with katana precision and
31:15chain attacks in ways that feel downright cathartic. The combat system is fast, fluid, and rewards skillful
31:22timing, especially with the freedom to cut objects and enemies in exact spots. The story is wild, cheesy,
31:29and entertaining, leaning into that bizarre platinum game's energy that makes it impossible not to enjoy.
31:35Boss fights are huge spectacles, the soundtrack hypes everything perfectly, and even the side missions
31:41are stylish. It's flashy, ridiculous, and one of the most underrated action games ever.
31:52Titanfall 2 might be one of the best shooters of its generation, but it didn't get the attention it
32:00deserved. The single player campaign is a masterclass in level design, blending wall running, parkour,
32:06and giant mech combat seamlessly. The story is surprisingly emotional for a shooter, focusing on
32:12the bond between Pilot and Titan, and the pacing is perfect. No moment feels wasted. Multiplayer is just
32:19as innovative, with fluid movement and unique Titan abilities that reward skill and creativity. It's
32:25fast, fun, and meticulously crafted, yet it was overshadowed by bigger franchises. Definitely a must
32:32play for shooter fans who missed it.
32:42Rice Son of Rome often gets dismissed as just a flashy console demo, but it's surprisingly satisfying
32:48once you dive into the combat. You play as a Roman soldier rising through vengeance and war,
32:54and every fight has a weighty, visceral feel thanks to the cinematic execution of strikes,
33:00executions, and formations. The visuals are gorgeous, the story is melodramatic in the best way,
33:07and the game actually rewards timing and strategy rather than button mashing alone. It's short,
33:13yes, but the pacing and scale make it feel epic. For anyone who wants a cinematic action experience
33:20with a bit more bite than usual, rice is a hidden gem.
33:33Evil West is a chaotic, over-the-top action game where you play as a vampire hunter battling
33:38hordes of monsters in a weirdly stylish Wild West. The combat is fluid, with guns, melee combos,
33:45and supernatural powers blending perfectly into the fast-paced gameplay. Levels are packed with
33:51verticality and secret paths, and the enemy variety keeps you constantly switching tactics.
33:57Humor and style are on point, making it feel like a comic book come to life, and the story,
34:03while straightforward, provides just enough motivation to keep blasting through waves of enemies.
34:08It's fast, fun, and way more polished than it got credit for.
34:21The Last Guardian is an emotional, slow-burn adventure that sticks with you
34:26because of the bond you build with Trico. The puzzles and platforming aren't always perfect,
34:31and the controls can feel awkward, but the relationship and worldbuilding carry the game completely.
34:37Guiding this massive, sometimes stubborn creature through crumbling ruins feels rewarding in a
34:43way few games achieve. The atmosphere, music, and quiet storytelling create moments that linger
34:49long after you stop playing. It's not about challenge or action, it's about connection,
34:54and that's why it's so memorable and criminally underrated.
35:05Rage 2 is absolute chaos in the best possible way. A colorful, loud, post-apocalyptic playground where
35:11your gunplay and powers make everything feel exhilarating. The world is open, full of strange enemies and
35:17factions, and the freedom to mix abilities and vehicles makes every encounter unpredictable.
35:22The story is forgettable, but the pure momentum of moving, shooting, and exploding things
35:27never gets old. With fluid controls and over-the-top weapons, Rage 2 is a pure
35:33mess-around-and-have-fun kind of game. It's loud, messy, and brilliant, yet it never got the appreciation
35:40it deserved because people expected too much structure.
35:51Call of Juarez Gunslinger is a surprisingly stylish and entertaining Wild West FPS.
35:56The storytelling is the star here. Narrated by a drunk, unreliable gunslinger, it blends action,
36:03humor, and tall tales perfectly. Shooting feels crisp, duels are tense, and the level design encourages fast,
36:11fluid movement. The game isn't long, but every chapter feels packed with personality,
36:16clever encounters, and the perfect amount of cinematic flair. It's over-the-top in all the
36:22right ways. With memorable bosses and gunplay that makes you grin, a fantastic hidden gem for
36:29anyone craving a western adventure that actually sticks.
36:40Alpha Protocol is one of the most underrated RPGs ever made, blending spy action with branching
36:46choices that actually matter. You play as Michael Thornton, and every conversation, infiltration,
36:52or mission decision can completely change relationships, mission outcomes, and even the
36:58ending. The combat mixes cover-based shooting with a semi-RPG upgrade system, giving you freedom to
37:04approach situations stealthily or with full guns blazing. The story leans into spy cliches, but does
37:11it with charm and unpredictability. Clunky in spots, yes, but the replay value and narrative weight make it
37:18a hidden gem that deserves revisiting.
37:28Remember Me is a futuristic action game that doesn't get enough credit for its originality
37:32and style. Set in Neo Paris, you're a memory hunter who can manipulate people's memories,
37:37an idea that's executed surprisingly well in both storytelling and gameplay. Combat is fast and combo
37:44driven, with stylish animations and satisfying flow, while exploration shows off the game's sleek cyberpunk
37:51world. The narrative tackles identity, memory, and corporate control in a way that feels fresh,
37:57even if the plot twists are a bit melodramatic. It's short but highly memorable, and definitely worth
38:03experiencing for anyone who loves story-driven action games.
38:14Quantum Break is more than just a third-person shooter. It's a full-on,
38:18time-bending spectacle with a live-action series interwoven into the story. The gameplay revolves
38:24around manipulating time, creating unique combat scenarios where slowing, stopping, or redirecting
38:30bullets becomes second nature. The story is gripping, with solid writing and performances,
38:35and the visual presentation still impresses today. The combination of cinematic sequences and
38:41gameplay feels seamless, giving players agency in a narrative-driven experience. It's ambitious,
38:48stylish, and deeply underrated. Most people missed how much fun controlling time in combat actually is.
39:00Days Gone is an open world zombie survival game that a lot of people dismissed, but it has charm,
39:09depth, and surprisingly tight gameplay. Riding Deacon on his motorcycle through the post-apocalyptic
39:15Pacific Northwest is oddly meditative, but then hordes of freakers show up and chaos ensues. The combat
39:23blends stealth, ranged, and melee options, while the crafting system keeps survival tense. Story-wise,
39:29it's emotional, focusing on loss, loyalty, and the human cost of a collapsed society. It's long,
39:36immersive, and atmospheric, with a world that genuinely feels alive. Definitely a game worth
39:42replaying if you missed it the first time.
39:52Kinabridge of Spirits is a beautiful, emotionally resonant action adventure that deserves far more
39:58recognition. You play as Kena, a young spirit guide, exploring lush, magical environments and
40:03helping lost spirits find peace. Combat is tight, with staff-based attacks and abilities that feel
40:09responsive, while the rot companions add charm and unique gameplay utility. The visuals are stunning,
40:17the soundtrack is emotional, and the story is simple but touching. It's short, but every moment is
40:23crafted with care, balancing exploration, puzzles, and combat perfectly. A modern gem that's both
40:29heartwarming and visually breathtaking.
