Metal Gear Survive, while I disagree with the usage of the MG brand for it; it could have been successful had they provided more content for it but more importantly if they just never used MG to advertise it. The classes were fun and the gameplay while repetitive with enough content could have been used creatively. It sucks it was marred with MTXs and just general Konami stupidity. Once again, fuck Konami.

I never hear anyone talk about this, but one of my favourite games as a kid was Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. It has such a unique tone, and I thought it was the peak of videogame graphics back in the day. I'm not sure if it's necessarily disliked, but I just never hear discussion about it.

It never really caught on, but I stumbled upon an indie game called Ctrl Alt Ego on PC and I had a really fun time with it. It's an RPG with some problem solving where your consciousness can jump to different robots and objects. You have a main body (an Ant) that you can jump into where you can add upgrades and powers to it. It's really fun and pretty unique. The only thing I didn't care for was the ending, it didn't make a lot of sense. But still it's worth trying out
This sounds really cool, I'll try and remember to look it up later!
Die Hard: Vendetta on the GameCube. Never seen the Die Hard movies but I received this game as a kid and my brother and loved it. It’s bad in a goofy way but it was fun.
Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. The game was a commercial and critical bomb, but it's the only cover shooter I've ever enjoyed. It's just such an unrelentingly visceral, disorienting, harsh game, with one of the main aesthetic gimmicks being that it emulates the look and feel of a late 2000s amateur video. It's hard to describe without seeing it in action, but it was audacious as shit for what was meant to be a big budget, AAA title.
I was always a massive fan of the Lost Planet games on Xbox 360. Mixes up my childhood favorite things, giant monsters and mechs.

Metroid other m. Far from best game in the series, a lot easier than the other games, but i found the presentation really fun.
The dodging and kill moves i found satisfying and the boss fights were. The cut scenes were a bit too long buy i enjoyed the game
Yeah, this really is a game that the story killed. The gameplay is tight and fun, and overall it's a fun experiment in the series that was ruined by the creator of the series completely misunderstanding why people like Samus as a character.
Well part of my unpopular opinion is that the story isn't that bad. To me the flashbacks arent so bad, it makes sense that samus was rebellious, she was young at the time and going through a phase but it also explains why she is a rogue hunter.
The part that is annoying is the present timeline where samus has completely abandoned the rebelliousness and will risk her own life in order to not disobey orders from someone who A) isn't her commanding officer and B) she disobeyed in the past
Most of the Dark Pictures Anthology games have pretty mediocre ratings, but at this point my friends and I look forward to each release. It's like a 10 hour long horror movie night. They're just long enough to start right after lunch on a sat, and play late into the night, passing the controller around.
Their last release The Devil In Me is rated around 5/10, yet it might be my favorite one to date. It's not uncommon for them to have a rocky release with bugs, so sometimes we give them a few months to patch it up. But honestly, one of the best local coop experiences I've had. Definitely recommend if you have some friends over.
There was this platformed called box boy, it was fun. Idk how popular it was but monster hunter stories was a huge part of my life a few years ago idk why I liked it, it was just a fun rpg
