Please excuse the typo on #96 – it should be "Urban Chaos" … not "Ubran Chaos".
Also #33 should be spelled "Ehrgeiz".

Rosco McQueen Firefighter Extreme got bad reviews, but was actually really fun and underrated.

Virus 2000?
Considering this is a list of games that were underrated, it’s surprising how many of these I played and loved.
Team buddie!!!!
No Steel Reign, dissapointed 🙁
So many nostalgia and happiness. Nowadays it’s hard to find new jrpg and rts building like dune2000
Bust a groove should’ve been number 1 >:l
when sped up to 1.75 this feels like something out of WarioWare! XD
Wait, Pepsiman is a hidden gem?
Ugly games
That silent bomber is one of a gem but its a demo… try Mission front 3 its Hidden Gem PS1 Game one of my the best.
1:24 the game that turned everyone gay that played it

The only one I had was Eternal Eyes, surprisingly.
Mizzurna falls

BISHI BASHI needs a remastered version and playable on steam. Its gonna be fun playing that nostalgic games with your friends HAHAHAHA
Wow manymany hidden games. Love it
JOGOS MUITO NOSTÁLGICOS MUITO INTERESSANTE E DIVERTIDOS,, MAIS INFELIZMENTE NUNCA TIVE OPORTUNIDADE DE JOGAR POR FALTA DE RECURSO,,
LSD dream simulator looks like a hidden gem alright
Man, Nintendo really ripped off Bashi Bashi’s style for the Wario Ware games.
Did you upscale? The graphics are amazing.
#56 kings field was the first dark souls in the 90s
Looney Toons – Sheep Raider is SUCH an amazing game.
Pepsi man!
Tobal 2 looks like a tekken clone with those movements
*hears intro noise*
*I SEE YOU’RE ALSO A CUSTOMER. ARE YOU SATISFIED WITH OUR PRODUCT?*
“……..she’s…….very realistic. Thank you.”
thanks for sharing this video more games to ad to my list
Huh, I did play a fair share of those, though I guess I also didn’t get a chance to play too many of the better known games, so I dunno how to feel about that. Could only look at ’em in the review magazines (which I still happen to have).
Still, good times, a lot of nostalgia. Thank you for the video.
Great Video, you have my thanks.
’97-09ish… truly a peak era for video games. It was when video game developers didn’t have to go insanely realistic so they played with stylish graphics, and the 90s aspect of making incredibly unique gameplay so your game was something new and different was at the forefront. It wasn’t all about making the most realistic first-person shooter with the best reload animation or a sports game that factored in 1 mile per hour winds. It was just pure fun, and the possibilities seemed endless because software was so accessible and spread like wildfire on the internet. Still, there was limited accessibility and skill needed so making a video game was truly out of passion and not something people did offhand to make a few bucks on a mobile app.
I dont see no Legend of Legaia
Apocalypse è molto conosciuto dalle mie parti
For a channel just named "Gary" you have some pretty damn interesting videos without all the b.s. just getting straight to the good stuff I couldn’t believe how many Sega Saturn games there were for Japan only that were good games it just boggles my mind that they never were released in the U.S. might of made the outcome of the bad sales with the Sega Saturn different if it had more of a variety of decent games
that fighting gundam is amazing. very good.
Wow big thanks to Gary and everyone in the comment suggesting additional hidden gems, will be trying lots of these, also not sure if they qualify as hidden gems but stars wars episode 1 the phantom menace was tough but great and Stuart Little 2 was just great 🙂
