I was just wondering what is a game that got pretty bad Publisher and magazine reviews, but you totally disagree with and think is a great game.

Mine would have to be Shadow Ops: Red Mercury. It mostly got 6 and 7's from the game sites, but I give it at least an 8.5. Sure it's A.I is dumb an multiplayer isn't that great, but I love the retro feel of it. It feels like one of those classic N64 james bond shooters or Half-life games. It's got incredible music for a video game and has a good cinematic presentation, and it's single player mode is long and well coonstructed with a variety of great environments. The only grudge I have against it is that you can't pick up or choose your weapons. You have to use the same 3 the whole mission, but all the other great stuff I like about Shadow Ops overlooks it.

So what is a game that you guys think is way underrated?

hehe, I'm making too big a deal about these games but... the decsent freespace games. Both of them were rated very highly on the game review sites but the public didnt catch onto it. I actually posted a topic down below named "Favorite Flight Sims" and I stated there the same thing. Sadly, noone's replied. But yes, there's my two cents.
