I have replayed this one recently, tbh not a great game but I like the vibe and its cast of quirky characters. Wish there was a sequel.

That cover allways reminds me of a Luis Royo Painting.

I really loved Hunchback on the C-64 as a kid. Probably very few will remember this not only because it's a forty year old game but also because it wasn't very good. Still played it every day for quite some time.

 

[tomato shrub]

Mindblowing horror classic. Still stuck on the Gamecube. Should really been getting a remake by now. The "insane" meter was fucking with my head back when I originally played this at release.

Over the years, I saw many people ragging on it for whatever reason - overhyped because of Nintendo or whatever.

Man, I recently replayed it, the atmosphere is absolutely sick and ahead of its time. Amazing game. Sure, some "sanity effects" don't make sense anymore, but imo it was never the game's highlight to begin with. Just ignore the whole drama with Dennis Dyack behind it.

Speaking of which, despite its success back in the day, Legacy of Kain fell off a cliff, huh?

 

[Sleepwalker]

Looks like Deus Ex ?

or that UE3 Samaritan demo

It is deus ex

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Mercenaries. I wish like anything this game would come back. With today's technology I think it would blow away the masses

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

Silverload for the PS1. This used to be a fun rental back in the day. I'd be surprised if anybody else has played it.

Wow. I remember renting this game. Dont remember anything about it except the Tenka name.

Talk about a perfect correlation to the thread title. This is the first time I have ever seen someone bring up Tenka ever on the net, and the first time I've thought of this game for 25 years.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

I remember playing the demos of these games on 360. They were decent.

Problem is that's when COD picked up steam, and there already Halo 3 and Gears out. So these games got pushed aside by gamers. I did the same.

 

[ryantetric]

Didn't check if anyone posted this yet. Great game.

USE THE C STICK!!

Killing Time is on gog. Not certain if the 3DO version is better than the PC version. The best 3DO emulator in Phoenix.

I will have to find where I put my copy of Knights in the Knightmare.

 

[Krathoon]

Oh. Someday, I will play through this damn game.
Realms of the Haunting.


Also, Black Dahlia and Ripper.

 

[Krathoon]

Remember Krazy Ivan?

 

[Krathoon]

There was some really inspired stuff on the Playstation 1. Psygnosis had lots of weird titles.
I am always impressed by what that console could do. It is even better when you double the resolution on an emulator.
That is where the MiSTer kind of falls flat.

Damnation

That 3/10 review from IGN looks really odd in hindsight. Its honestly solid. I really don't see why they decided to drag it through the mud. Then again, IGN is hardly a reliable source.

No one talks about Wet anymore. It has bullet time like Max Payne.

I adore that game. I wouldn't have minded a sequel... but in this day and age I'd rather leave it be.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

???

Deus Ex.

 

[CGNoire]

Deus Ex.

"I aked for that".

 

[Scotty W]

Op, if you look on Google you can find a lot of forgotten games.

 

[SleepySlippy]

The other day I came across a deal about that game, Metal Fatigue (Metal Conflict in Europe).
I had nearly forgotten it. But I remember that it was one of the first 3D RTS games, with mechas. I loved that game.

I wish Sony put some of these random forgotten games on PS Plus. That would surprise and delight me. There are so many. i would be like “wtf!!” if they put something like Loaded and Re-Loaded on there

[Last Hearth]

Betrayal at Krondor. One of the first CPRG that started the CRPG wave on the PC, without which we wouldn't have had Baldur's Gate.

I haven't heard anyone mention it in years.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

To bad part 2 never got released

 

[Krathoon]

This game is kind of sexist, but fun. A very 90s game.

That was such a great moment!

IMHO, it had the best-feeling controls of any fps on consoles.

 

[kubricks]

Sekiro is kind of the modern day Tenchu.
Still, I'd very much like to replay the older title in my Steam deck.

 

[Krathoon]

Tenchu did not age very well graphically. I remember watching the ending.

I still like it, but it has that early PS1 game feel to it.

Here is a new retro game that needs more love.

 

[Krathoon]

There is totally a market for retro games done in the PS1 and Sega Saturn style.

Not many people are doing that. You could totally Shovel Knight that shit.

I have only seen the Haunted PS1 Disc games, Lunistice, Dread Delusion, and Devil Daggers.

I really like D, for the Saturn. It had a really creepy atmosphere, and I enjoyed the visuals.

 

[Krathoon]

This is a forgotten classic.

 

[harry mason 1989]

Came to say this, first thing that popped into my mind.

EDIT: I'll also say...

Alundra:

Such a nice forgotten game, a shame that they don't port it/re-release it.

EDIT2: Legacy of Kain and anything Amy Hennig touches.

EDIT3: Xenosaga 1/2/3

I feel alundra 2 is more forgotten then alundra1
I even think people don't know that sequel exist
You can't even find a full longplay for alundra2
On YouTube
It's really the definition of obscure game imo

 

[harry mason 1989]

This is a forgotten classic.

I played this game back in 1999 when I was 10
I remember that black shadow monster scared the shit out of me when he swallowed the poor kid
The game was very dark and gory

Oh yeah. The deaths in that game are totally messed up. I think it was by the guy that did Another World. I may be wrong.

Edit: Yes. I was right.

A new Ecco game could look gorgeous on modern hardware.
