The problem with Okami is that nobody wants to play as a wolf who paints(except the weeabus of course).
Advent: Rising! I loved that game. and it just sort of died off
Naruto ultimate ninja 2, dbz budokai.
It’s almost criminal to not have Deadly Premonition on this list. I felt like it had to be.
Does Terraria count? That’s one of my favorite games of all-time!
Silent Hill 2 developer has recently posted on Twitter that the game’s initial sales had bombed in Japan, believe it or not.
NO CONKER??!!!

I’m at the beginning but I’ll hazard a guess that Majora’s mask is on here
Hell yeah, Earthbound! Always near and dear to my heart, it will forever be my absolute favorite game 🥺❤️
I’m sad now. You didn’t mention Star Wars Jedi Academy. Players still play the multiplayer (mod) and it does have a active community
There’s way to many of them, but the "Shenmue" series definitely has one, though part 3 was not well received commercially, the fans run strong, and want part 4 already.
There also the "Ecco The Dolphin" series, and if no one has played "MDK 2" in their life, you’re missing out on one of the best games ever made, its on "Steam" right now, get it, you won’t regret it!😎😉
I’m gonna be that guy, Modern Warfare 2
God I love Catherine, but not the Full Body one…
would be nice if sony paid nintendo to get access to earthbound so we could replay the game again i liked earthbound. wish people would remake deus ex 1 for ps5 days
….. with todays pc and ps5 xbox series x out.. they should create a AD&D forgotten realms game … have people create a charector explore the city of splendors go on the sword coast ..but mainly allow people to go underground.. in the maze till they reach the underdark.. explore the depths …fight a giant or dragon and get the treasure etc. heck maby play a charector as a half giant or half dragon… sort of hoped you could in elder scrolls to. OH! and i liked the 7th saga yes turn based so a lot of people wont like it.. but.. if your power was stronger than your foes and defense sure… you could dodge attacks and do more damage as you leveled. its a power game. so not really turn based
I thought Destroy All Humans was a cult classic.
The _Klonoa_ series, _Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg_ and _Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak_ deserve mentions. _Balan Wonderworld_ is also shaping up to be one.
I would nominate Shadow Hearts, SepterraCore, and Arcanum of Steamworks & Magick Obscura, and Rogue Galaxy, personally. :3
Splosion Man! Yes! What a game!
Skies of Arcadia is maybe my favorite RPG that doesn’t have "Final" or "Fantasy" in the name. SO deserved more recognition than it got.
Halflife 2??
Doom??
Chrono Trigger??
Sly Cooper??
You shouldn’t tell people to start cult’s I already have three LoL
LEGEND OF DRAGOON!!! Hell yeah not that’s a mf classic right there. right that game since it was released way back then
Where my zombies ate my neighbors fans at????? Anyone remember that game?
I thought conkers bad fur day would be on the list
Really 0 mention of Suikoden series
Soul Reaver 1 and 2 are two of my all time favorite games.
2 hidden gems that didn’t get much attention in my view;
Operation Winback N64
Enslaved- Odyssey to the west
Man, Jet Force Gemini…you brought back huge nostalgia feels for me there!
Does anyone know where I can play this these days? American McGee’s Alice too, for that matter. ♥
Where is Mario, Pac-Man, Diablo 2, D&D, Gothic, etc. ???
I played so many of these! ETERNAL DARKNESS was terrifying for my 12yr old self in the dark. Legend of dragoon, Soul Reaver 1 and the ps2 soul reaver 2, are fantastic. On the subject of ps1 where the hell is TOMBA!? Why does everyone forget Tomba? It was so freaking simple yet in depth. Like mario, but with quests.
Deus Ex should be on here
earthbound is the most overrated game of all time
I feel No More Heroes should be considered a cult classic. I don’t know many people outside my self who’s played them all, while it managed to gain a trilogy and a spin-off.
ogre battle games
Doesn’t legend of the dragon remind you of ff7?
Great to see Legend of Dragoon get a shout. I remember borrowing it from a friend when I was 12, only got to disc 2. 4 years later I see it in a Gamestation, mint condition with both manuals for £30, bargain!
dead island should have been on the list
Psychonauts<3
Decent list, I would also throw Day of the Tentacle + ActRaiser on there.
Totally awesome video of classic video games watch mojo, fantastic job.
Breath Of Fire 3 and Conflict: Vietnam
Planescape Torment in 15th? LMAO WatchMojo, big LMAO
G RPGs is for GAYs
…No "Legend of Dragoon"?….
😐 Shame on who made this list.
If Skies of Arcadia is so well loved now, then Sega should make a remaster with improved graphics instead of putting all their money into more terrible Sonic sequels.
Forever waiting on this Legend of Dragoon remake/remaster we all so desperately need….
Dragon’s Dogma?
Okami should have been a launch title for the Nintendo Wii console in the first place.
Soul Reaver and Blood Omen were a couple of my favorite PS2 games.
