My Favorite Gems

The games under this list fall under a few different categories. Maybe they are games that I enjoy despite their actual quality. They could be highly praised games that didn't get the mass attention they deserved. Or maybe they are just o.k. games that came out and were ignored because they weren't really good or really bad.

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy

1. Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy

A favorite among my group of friends. This game has ahead of its time. A third person shooter that makes you feel like what it would be if you were a Jedi.... with guns.

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System

2. Metal Arms: Glitch in the System

A charming game with loads of character. The weapons and abilities were lots of fun to play with. The difficulty curve kept things challenging all the way through.

Beyond Good & Evil

3. Beyond Good & Evil

This game isn't as unknown as it was at the time of it's release. When it released, my then fiance (now my wife) and I bought and played through this together. It holds a special place in my heart.

Project: Snowblind

4. Project: Snowblind

A short, but solid shooter. The special abilities made it stand out from some of the other PS2 shooters. I'm also biased because I dug this out of a Best Buy bargain bin for $2.

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction

5. The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction

Another game I picked up for cheap. Lots of fun to be had here. From the gameplay, it's obvious that Radical went on to make Prototype.

Singularity

6. Singularity

The newest game on this list. I get a lot of BioShock and Half-Life 2 while playing it. The time travel/manipulation is the key ingredient that sets it apart from other shooters. Unfortunately, it could've have used some more depth and refinement. A sequel could do that, but chances are that we won't see one.
