Everyone has a game that they fell was a great game but was just overlooked.
Post the games that u feel fall under this description.
For me a game that happened to would i feel would be a game called skate.
 
halo 2... oh wait overlooked... nevermind...


but, i cant really think of too many overlooked games, age of empires III was kind of a small community, i think...
 
Stronghold (PC)
Red Steel (WII)
MOH:AA (PC)
MOH: PA (PC)

I love stronghold. Wasn't too keen on the second one though.
My list:

Sanitarium
Clive Barkers' Undying
System Shock 2

EDIT: Well system shock 2 is underrated these days.

There was a driving game on the Dreamcast, all Ferrari's, it was advertised at the time as being the most realistic ever in terms of actual driving, it took me 2 days to get round the first corner! :P Once you got the hang of it, it was amazing. Still the best driving game I ever played..
 
Psychonauts. Had it originally on console, just recently picked it up on the PC. Made by Tim Schafer in 2005, dude behind the monkey island games and Grim Fandango, this on the other hand is an action/platformer that's funny as all hell. The story and setting were awesome, the characters look alittle like tim burton had a hand in their creation, and they're absolutely insane in a good way.

You just don't laugh like this in any other game. i love it. :D

Shadow of the Colossus. Mere words cannot describe this game. :P
 
Noone Lives Forever 2!
MOHPA
Ballistics
Starship Troopers (yes, I actually liked the game! :o )
Silent Hunter 3/4 (you dont see a LOAD of people playing those :( )

edit:

Oh, oh! Evil Genius 2 :D
 
Microsoft Windowcleaning Simulator 2002

RFactor

Armed Assault

Sins Of a Solar Empire


I think RFactor is a bit overlooked found it by accident via YouTube comments on race driving games. I think it's only available to buy online and download its the most realisitic physics ever for car simulation and it's got lots of free addons always coming out from the userbase.
 
simfarm i don't really hear much about it anymore, still play it on my pc and on my grandma's lappy and thats vista which surprised me when a windows 98 game played on vista :P
 
Lords of the Realm 2 (PC), I don't know when this game came out but when I was in school for the Navy I met this guy who played RTS and he burned the game for me. Excellent game considering it's a older game. Judging by graphics I would place it early 90's.
 
Yeah, Silent Hunter, I've got the second one, it's great. Not really one of those games you could jump into though, it took a fair bit of getting used to.
 
Sins of a Solar Empire is a great game, although I don't know that it's been out long enough to be considered "overlooked" yet... Beyond Good and Evil is a game that is agreed by a lot of different sources to be just awesome, but never really seems to get much press; kinda weird...

F355, I have it :)

Amazing driving experience :D


Amazing game right? :D

I'm stuck at the airplane fights, where you have to destroy two ships... :D

I love the jungle clearing style of this game :D. You don't just point and shoot, you stop, take your binoculars, get a strategy and attack :)
