I think I already replied to a similar topic, a long time ago...anyway, and in no particular order:


- Baldur's Gate II: Shadows Of Amn
- Prince Of Persia (the first one from 1991)
- Jade Empire
- Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic
- Legend Of Zelda: Wind Waker
- The Elder Scrolls: Arena
- AD&D Eye Of The Beholder II: The Legend Of Darkmoon
- Ultima Underworld
- King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow

The list keeps changing because there's a LOT of games that I like :w00t:

Yeah, I know But for me, it's the only ''pure'' Elder Scrolls.

My top ''far-too-underrated'' games:

- Planescape: Torment
- Arx Fatalis
- Another War
- Brutal Sports Football
- Al Qadim: The Genie's Curse
- Shadowcaster
- Ignition
- Alley Cat
- Budokan

And the freakin' old ''far-too-underrated'' game #1 is:

----Wizard's Lair!-----Ta-da!!!! :brain:

Al-Quadim... yes, interesting concept and environment but way too simplified gameplay, feels like pre-Diablo or something like that (or to be more specific it's like Zeliard but with top-down view). Anyway it's a good game in it's own right.

Shadowcaster. Damn, can't find it, the CD version which I'm after is quite rare it seems, it's nowhere to be found. I just want to play it for the fact it was developed by Raven before Heretic and Hexen (which I like a lot), although I hate games made after, shame that they apparently have abandoned Heretic/Hexen series, those were of great artistic value of me personally.

Planescape: Torment is way unusual game. Whole setting, characters and etc. I don't know for others but for me this one will remain as one of the best RPG games ever, not the top but second nonetheless (like I mentioned before - first one is Albion).

I might add Sanitaruim to the list of underrated games. Unfortunately full of bugs but apart of that it's a great psycho game, just too short imo.

Is Hexen better than Heretic? Because i'm really not a Heretic fan, it bores me...

First Hexen was better than the first Heretic, but Heretic 2 was a fantastic game.

It'll bore you to death with it's puzzles. You might even break your keyboard in anger and loose your mind trying to figure out what-the-hell-that-switch-does (and it might do something waaay far away from it, heck it may even open the hidden door on the other map!). In Hexen patience is the key. You _will_ hate it. But if you manage to beat this game you'll love it. It's a game not for everyone, it's a sort of game I call hardcore. If you're looking for mindless non-stop action doom clone then you're looking wrong.

Heretic games are much simplier, they don't have those crazy puzzles Hexen does (Heretic II does have some but they aren't that insane). They are are mostly run-and-shoot sort of games, direct clones/descendants of Doom, while Hexen (and of course Hexen II) adds those sort-of adventure elements with multi-level hubs. To make your life even better they took map from you at Hexen II. Are you into it?

I personally suggest you just ignore the Hexens and Heretic I and just buy Heretic II, it's just better than all of them, although it is a third person action game.

10. Warcraft II (PC)
9. Super Mario Brothers 3 (NES)
8. Arcanum (PC)
7. Final Fantasy VII (PSX)
6. Underworld I (PC)
5. Theme Park (PC)
4. X-COM: Apocalypse (PC)

and my top three are...

3. Albion (PC)
2. Settlers II (PC)
1. Suikoden II (PSX)
Simply my favourite game. The only game which has made me cry when I've completed it. That sums up how much I love Suikoden. Visually more appealing than the first Suikoden, too.
