i am very bad at explaining why so i'm just going to give my list of 5

- Killzone (the first one)
this is a game that was huge (for me personally) in my childhood and after recently replaying it i found out that the game wasnt very populair at all and that hurt my feelings a bit. i agree the characters were pretty dull but i think the game was very pretty for its time.

- Days Gone
i think this game didnt get half the love it deserved, i really enjoyed biking through a zombie filled world.

- Tomb Raider Legend.
i'm not even sure how popular this one was but i hear alot that TR went bad after 3 and got good again with Square Enix's reboots (on which i strongly disagree, i dislike the remakes).
I've played Legend so many times that i knew it like the back of my hand.
After Angel of Darkness this new game was very refreshing and i feel they really listened to the gamers to not make the same mistakes again.

i'm going to leave it at these 3 because i cant i'm out of ideas. might come back later when i remember 2 more games
