Games you love... that no one played

What is Shadow Hearts, exactly? I've heard about it, but never really seen or know much about it.

Almost forgot about Tomoyo After. Even in the Key community I frequent almost no one bothers to read it. Which is a massive shame because it's one of my all-time favorites and still has my favorite romance and favorite ending of any VN to date.

All because it has H scenes.

What is Shadow Hearts, exactly? I've heard about it, but never really seen or know much about it.

Basically revisionist fantasy-alternate universe set during the pre-WWI, WWI, and the Depression (depends on what game you're playing). My favorite (and the one I've spent the most time on) is the second game. You can pick it up without ever having played the first. You get to play some characters such as a gay vampire and Anastasia. Yes, that Anastasia.

I've played some of Shadow hearts covenant, but I don't remember much. It was a long time ago and I either just rented it or it was one of the games that got destroyed when my parents let a kid play around in my room while I was at work.

I do very much want to try playing again though as I liked the little I got to play.

Cyborg Justice for the Sega Genesis. You play as robots and get to pick different parts before you play, and it feels like no one ever heard of the game, much less played it.

To a lesser extent, Monster Rancher. The original game. Once in a blue moon I get to talk about it with somebody, but it's not much. 2 and 4 seems to be the ones everyone knows.

And I second Crystal Chronicles.

Way of the Samurai
SkyGunner
Metropolismania
Tenchu: Fatal Shadows (Really all of them after 1&2)

There's others.

I forgot BattleTanx.
Hardly anyone I talk to ever knows what I'm talking about when I mention BattleTanx.

I have played way of the samurai and it was amazing.

I think that Primal is the most underrated/unpopular game I've ever played.
I didn't even know about it until I bought it a long time ago.
Even indie games are more known than Primal!
