Most underrated PS2 game


Kutt

Recommended Posts

"Summoner" for the playstation 2 is the most criminally underrated game that was ever made for that console. It is hands down the best RPG I have ever played!

It needs to be remade, for the PS4 and/or PC with modern graphics.

There have even been petitions made to get THQ and Volition games to do a modern remake.

My first entry has to be Smugglers Run.

 

It doesn't seem much to look at first glance but the physics and AI of enemy vehicles was quite challenging and exciting at the time.

 

Second is The Bouncer.

 

I found this game quite addictive at the time due to story replay with level upgrades, survival modes, character unlocks, unlockable moves, and ofc the novelty manga-esque style to it.

I always thought RAD (Robot Alchemic Drive) was a really cool concept. Horrible name, even worse cover art, but the actual game was really cool!

 

You remotely control a giant robot, yes it transforms, in a destructible city. Aliens are invading (again!?) and only your mega-mecha (not officialy licensed name) can stop them! Pummel them to dust, fire lazors, rockets, bullets, and toss them into buildings, but don't destroy buildings belonging to your sponsors, you'll need the reward money to purchase upgrades!

 

Report me if this doesn't sound awesome as all hell!

 

Yeah, just seeing a review mentioning the bad graphics and horrible writing/voice acting, it's funny how they used to get so many things wrong in games, but one really good part could let us overlook the rest. Now people can't get over one tiny flaw in a game. :p Anyway, check it out if you can find it really cheap!

I would personally say that both Freedom Fighters and Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction were by far 2 of my favorite games.

 

They were both quite fun games to play. And although they were simple in design, I feel a remake or a sequel to either would be great.

Freedom Fighters i absolutely loved the art design of the game. And the complex dilemma of an invading force into America..Plus the gameplay was down right fun in my opinion. Think Red Dawn kind of plot, except inside of Boston. The concept was fun, and they had an alright design for that era. Too bad there was never anything afterwards :?

 

Mercenaries was tons of fun. Explosions, vehicles, gunplay..i think it was ahead for its time. I don't know if you could call it underrated but it certainly didnt seem very popular at the time. Although the Mercenaries sequel was good that came out it felt hyped for me..and the studio that made Freedom Fighters, never made a sequel. I think they maybe got disbanded :/
