I loved Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines but a combination of the hugely anticipated release of Half Life 2, the closure of the developer studio and some game crippling bugs meant that it got a bad time in online reviews and anyone I know that bought the game hated it.

I loved it though, the intro movie was fantastic and really set the scene. Given all the discussion about bugs I was prepared for issues but none cropped up for me thankfully.
That game is bloody excellent. I apologise for that...
Anyway, Bloodlines is fantastic. I got to a point where the game crashed everytime, but a patch sorted it out. Really enjoyed it!

Maybe I should start a thread on that game actually as a special mention must go to the soundtrack that featured Ministry, Lacuna Coil and Massive Attack amongst others.0 -

Yeah! I played the Obsfucate character (Malkavian?) and was used to creeping around, getting to know the challenges before I actually faced them. That level caught me completely off guard.In the basement, when the ghost keeps running across corridors in front of ye..!!
Maybe a new thread is needed....

I thought the scariest bit was whenyou come downstairs and hear the noise from the washing machine and when you open it up a human head is inside! I think the lights go then or there's a noise I forget, but the head stuck with me.
I was the Malkavian as well, it was so much fun talking cryptically all the time, really well written. There were loads of fan-made patches for it by the time I played it so I never had any crashes.
OT: Little Big Adventure 1&2 PC - What other 3D adventure game has a character called Funfrock as the big serious evil bad man? Played through them so many times. Loved the realistic way you hurt yourself when you ran into walls in the first one, so funny!
Mayhem in Monsterland on the C64 - Most people just haven't heard of it. Anyone I found who played it loved it. Basically it was really like Sonic the Hedgehog in that you could go crazy fast and was an excellent platformer.
Body Harvest N64 - Was already mentioned but this quote lives on amongst my friends: "Those foolish zombies ate all my shotgun shells. Use my combine Harvester to shred them!"
Mission:Impossible N64 - Now I finished this game but my mates loved it and played through it many times. I couldn't stand to go back to it as I just think it's so flawed. So I can't understand why they liked it.

Wacky Racers on the Dreamcast got there first.
AS for Mayhem in Monsterland, it's not that well known since it came out really late in the C64's lifespan. The Megadrive and SNES were already well into their stride by then. I remember it being the last game released that I wanted before I got my megadrive and also that I couldn't get it since it was available for mail order only. I only played the demo but it was a fantastic game, it really pushed the C64 as far as it could possibly go.

Guess I've been hanging with the wrong crowds as I've been asking people for years about Mayhem in Monsterland and nobody had ever heard of it! I looked up the makers recently, The Rowland Bros - they were working on a port of it for mobile phones with a flash demo available. But you can't charge, so it's just a standard platformer with the same character. What's the point eh?
Here's a link if anybody wants to see what happened to them:

Yeah that was an a excellent game. Only played it last year. Pity the developer went bust. The guys who created Fallout set it up. It was incredibly buggy though. And combat could be a bit flakey at times. Having said that, would love a sequel. Maybe Bethesda could do it when they're finished Fallout 3. Give The Elder Scrolls a break.
Speaking of sequels that will never get made, Shenmue. Loved that game. A lot of my mates weren't too fond of it though.

I've never played the games but I assume you mean a Shenmue 3 as there's already a Shenmue 2 on Xbox and Dreamcast. 0 -

Yep, I liked it
not so much the whole dress up thing and it was a bit camp at times but I enjoyed it for the most part, was a little different from the other final fantasy games I'd played before with the all side quests and stuff. Liked the battle system too. 0 -
Amplitude on PS2. Without this game there'd be no Guitar Hero.
You do know it has a (argueably) superior prequel? Frequency?
Personally superior due to the track list.
Globally superior due to the tunnel layout instead of Amplitude's planar instrument track layout. This meant that players less frequently (and sorta unfairly) lost their multiplier as the furthest track from your current position could only ever be half the number of steps/jumps away than the furthest track in Amplitude.
Amplitude does look a lot prettier... I'll give you that.
Yeah, Frequency would probably be the game I like that no one else likes. 0 -
