Underrated games - recent edition

[James Colorado]

So I was actually meant to type Sleeping Dogs and I think Jimmy Colorado did as well but I still knew what he meant because Sleeping Dogs was the successor to True Crime.

So disregard the Watchdogs comment but for the record the first two are decent junk food games and Legion is poo.

I only just noticed that I typed 'Watchdogs'; yes, was referring to 'Sleeping Dogs',

Actually saw it was on sale for $5 or $6, so have bought it for the third time (PS3 when it came out, then PS4 and now on Series X). Game is worth it.

I only finished it once when it came but.

SAW: the video game, really enjoyed it from memory. I don’t know anyone else who’s played it

I had it. Can't recall how far I got but there is now at least 2 of us that played it.

Thanks to Gamepass for introducing me to: Still Wakes The Deep, Blue Prince, Inscryption, Core Keeper, ROUTINE, Darkwood and Signalis.

It's nice to get out of the habit of only buying the occasional big release.

I play a bunch of old games, and my new games re a embles them.

Master of Command is a history flavoured 7 years war game. Total War style battles (so pretty and a bit realistic), slightly abstract 3 act campaign, unit experience and equitable items. Best of all you can edit unit flags and uniform colours.

Last Train home is Company of heroes for the Russian Civil war: campaign is literally on rails but has dinky tactical combat. Roster management a tiny bit like XCOM though.

Bought Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition last year or the year before.

I really need to play it.

Watchdogs was awesome.

1 and 2, and the Brit one. Great series.

Wasteland 3 is up there along side NV as the best Fallout games. I think it’s a brilliant CRPG.

Outer worlds 2 was brilliant. It’s not mid. It’s a fantastic ARPG.

And gears tactics is the best gears of war game I’ve played.

Also classified France 1944 is as good as xcom 2.

And dead island 2 was some great dumb fun.

If anyone likes platformers, Ape Escape 1 is a massive gem, especially with the gadgets.

Massive fan of the Ape Escape games. Probably bit of nostalgia involved but I'd love a remake or revamp.

I played it for the first time, last month, it's genuinely a great game, shockingly good for a PS1 game imo.
