** EDIT MISTAKE at 1:36 - it has been cut in RUclips's editor and should be reflected shortly. Sorry for the abrupt confusion in the video
Early crew get the alpha version :D
I demand to see heads roll over this....just kidding. Natch.😊
@rossyboy1980 we pre-ordered for that open beta/3day early access release.
@gerhard7323 with this quick a fix, just a wing clipping
We saw it, no backsies! :D
Bro that swordplay in alien isolation is pretty awesome.
Ahahahaha
Yeah what's up with this video? was it made by AI or something?
@@Maul222 Haha, no, just an editing error.
@@Maul222 yep, it's an ai script for sure
@@Shadows_Inc Come on man, we all know falcon is a bot. :P
The Order was hated because it was a super short game at full game prices. If it dropped for $20-$30 people wouldn't have dogged it so hard.
I agree, if I'm paying $60 for a AAA game I expect it to be longer than 5 or 6 hours. As a tech showcase it was worth $20 not a full price game.
I dunno, people are already dogging Hellblade 2 for being 7 - 10 hours, even though it's priced at $50 instead of $70.
Maybe if it was advertised as being shorter & they explained what they were going for, people might have been a bit more lenient & it would've weeded out some unaware buyers who expected something else.
I'm not a huge proponent of using hours as a metric for value as personally id prefer a really polished 20 hour experience over a bloated 70 hour. But I do think there is a sort of minimum that needs to be met especially when talking about a full priced AAA game. I would be a bit bothered paying $70 for 5 hours of game. At the AAA price I think about 15 hours(give or take) of polished gameplay is the sort of minimum to charge that price.
At the AA price(30-50) or below i think 10 hours is perfectly fine. And at the indie prices, well tbh im impressed when a $7 game gives me even a solid 6 hours of gameplay, outside of roguelikes.
@@imALazyPanda I'm all in for a solid 15-20 hour AAA story driven game. The Order was a friggin 6 hour game, nothing extra, no bonus, nothing. People cleared it in 4 hours on their first playthrough.
Order failed beacuse of promises we got from devs. It was supposed to be bigger, longer, better with destructible enviroment and many more. They just had to advertise the game as it was and nobody would say anything.
Even though Mad Max's world is barren, it feels lived in. The rusted awnings, the grimy looking mattresses, tattered rags flying from settlement roofs, the jerry cans, the improvised weapons; all of them lend a feeling of humanity having hung on by the skin of its teeth. It's grim, its atmospheric and it's aged well as a game!
Tons of environmental storytelling in that game
I'll never understand how Mad Max isn't considered to be one of the best open world games ever made. I've played almost all of them, and this one is tragically overlooked. I agree with you 100% on this.
i didn't even know there was a mad max game til a few months ago... i was thinking it'd be cool if somebody made a mad max game, and googled it. pretty good one at that. it was kinda annoying at first, but then awesome when i got into it.
Hi Falcon, this is folks.
Hey
@@gameranxTV sup fulxie here
Just a guy watching a bird talk about games, living the life
@@gameranxTV Nice edit flub on game 10
I’m Pizza, Jake Baldino’s on me 🫡
Mad Max is so under rated. The Car Customization was great and collection stuff for your car was fun as well.
I came to the scary comments section for this. I'd go early access crowd funded mega doaner for a mad max 2.
It was great but honestly I love how they. Made the combat,many say it copied batman but I disagree,it make it similar as batman but to fit the game and the character and it was amazing:)
Man I love the mad max universe and man the game is one of my favourites and have always a great time
it's a game I come back to from time to time because the gameplay is so fun, that and sleeping dogs
of all the games in this video, this is the one I'm def going to try! looks awesome. it feel under the radar for me for sure. i'd never even seen footage of it til now.
Here's a little behind the scene for ya. Worked on Mad Max. Great project. If you played on controller, you officially got fucked. Why? Because an overzealous, ignorant creative director decided to remove the fucking handbrake from the driving in favour of... no exaggeration, for a problem that wasn't a fucking problem. BUT, if you go into the settings, you'll see there's an alternate mapping. We on the core team snuck the original mapping into the game as the alt mapping. Play that, you get the handbrake back, driving in game is 3000% better, and I maintain it's a fucking great game.
Didn't know all the info you just provided, but I agree Mad Max is an awesome game 👍🏿
Good to know! it's in my to-play list, already bought it a long time ago on Steam, and I planned to use a gamepad.
Mad Max was one of the first games I fully played through on my old PC. That thing was a hunk of junk that didn’t even have an actual gaming GPU. Even still, I was able to play through the entire game at medium graphics settings with a solid 30 fps. It’s one of the best optimized games ever.
The one minor issue I had with it was that I found the little bit of gunplay it had to be a bit boring, but the combat itself is incredibly fun as an Arkham fan.
Mad Max is one of those games that has stuck with me for years. The writing and voice acting were *phenomenal*, and absolutely nailed the feel of Fury Road.
Anyone else experience a jump after alien isolation?
falcon did a art.
It was so weird hearing swords in a alien game
Yeah, looks like an editing mistake. They forgot the title card.
Yeah, I was just about to come down and comment about that. It was weird, it felt like they weren't quite done with Alien: Isolation, and then right into Rise of the Ronin without even addressing the name of the game.
@lareolanKFP
I'm listening to it so it sounded weird 😅
The Order 1886 was a great concept that should have been made into a Netflix series but as it stands, the game itself is not as bad as the critics made it to be.
Prototype 2 was a worthy conclusion to the first and remember, Alex Mercer was always the villain since it was he, who unleashed the virus as it was revealed from the first game.
Alex was just another NPC Antifa who ruined everything.
Except Alex Mercer is the virus during the game, not the person who unleashed it
not to be THAT guy but UM ACTUALLY lol Alex Mercer WAS the bad guy. BUT it was implied that Alex Mercer died when he released the virus and the PC you control is basically just the Virus inhabiting his body. Since then the Virus is objectively just trying to find more about it's origin and constantly being hunted, I think it puts him more as a anti-hero then villain but they do then make him the Villain in Prototype 2. Nothing wrong with that, although I liked the ambiguity of Alex Mercer more then the 'dad trying to save his daughter' character we got in 2.......but that's probably because that was one of the first and im so burned out on 'dad's saving daughters' in games at this point
I really enjoyed The Order 1886.
The Order tried too hard to be Gears of War, but the Tesla concept were cool. I completed it and also all Gears games.
Regarding Mad Max being haunting, there's a region in it called The Dunes. In part of it I saw what looked like cargo containers, but on getting closer I saw that they were roofs, on houses, and I saw the tops of old utility poles. I find a hole, and I drop in, right into a child's bedroom, with a crib, and crayon drawings still on the walls, I go further in, and I battle some enemies, and I find a table still set for dinner, and some other things around the mostly intact house.
It was, really eerie.
Yes, The Saboteur was Pandemic's magnum opus, their swan song, the studio went out with a banger, the art style and gameplay were so great. I was obsessed with it when it came out, did NOT care what critics said or the dude at my local gamestop who tried to talk me out of buying it
Not entirely relevant but i see a lot of people thinking a 70% 7/10 is a bad score and means a bad game. It really doesn't. Its supposed to be a solid game that you should read around a decide if you like the sound of, without it being spectacular. For some reason game scoring systems have always been heavily weighted towards the top of the scale compared to say film or music reviews. This isn't new, i'm old and its happened since i was a child. When i was younger i was sure it was because there were so many print publications that those that gave out bad scores lost access to future games. That no longer stands but its something thats never gone away.
Obviously some games have a long tail and end up being thought of much better after a while. Alien Isolation absolutely fits into that. Some games just stand up better, or age well. Their graphic style stands out (for example Mirrors Edge), or fashions in gaming trend towards what they tried earlier. Basically don't write games off without either properly seeking out a wide range of views or if possible try stuff for yourself. A personal example is i recently played Lost in Random. Its Open Critic score is 72%. It's not the best game i ever played but it was worth the time and i could see the love the devs had put into it.
7/10 means 5/10 and 5/10 really means 0/10
That’s honestly the logic. Nobody wants to rate something a 5, because apparently 5 is a bad score. So they inflate it. 7 suddenly means average meaning every ranking is really from 5-10.
Never trust a 1-10 ranking for anything. People never rate below a 5 so it’s just a pointless metric.
Also what are we measuring? How can you compare rdr2, Arkham city, fifa or portal? All vastly different games but succeed at what they set out to accomplish.
Is a game like Tetris bad because it’s not a complex story driven game? Is it good because it’s 100% gameplay and nails its gameplay? If a game is in most aspects ‘bad’ but is so fun to play, is it still bad?
A game like Simpsons hit and run, is by all intents and purposes, bad. Bad graphics, story and 3 mission types recycled on 3 recycled maps, but it’s still so fun to play lol
Lost in Random was a really fun game and I personally enjoyed playing it. It has its flaws here and there, but most games have a few flaws so it's not a bad thing.
Yeah for a good few of those games that he was calling "flawed gems", a score in the 70s seemed perfectly appropriate.
Actually, due to how scores are calculated, anything below a 9 is bad. I'd hate to say it, but it's true. An 8 is almost like a fail, and 5 or less is a critical failure. So, if you give a game an 8, then you are actually hurting the company that made it.
To my knowledge, the logic follows American grading logic, which I believe as a non-American is that anything below a 70 is "bad" and anything below a 90 is "not good"
OMG you forgot the GOAT of all the ''they made you believe it's bad''.... DAYS GONE! This game is a masterpiece now
You're god damn right, Days Gone is amazing.
i cant believe i watched that whole video with out seeing days gone.
How is it any different?
@@RedPilledDaddy if you didnt like the game, that’s probably because you played when the game first came out. When it finally released on PC, the game was bug free and basically perfect.
@@Fawllam or it just wasn’t to their tastes. The played it on PC at 4K and generally just felt it was another open world game. Great looking but pretty meh
Mad Max was such a hidden gem
The car, the crashers, the sound, the explosion, the customization
Love going and clearing out camps with my car, sniper, fist, and just dominate those suckers.👏
The Saboteur was amazing - I can barely remember it - but it was awesome lol. Also in Mad Max I did every objective of every location - the game stats even said so - but the platinum trophy glitched.....it was...so much...
Also Aliens Isolation is one of my favorite games of all time because of learning how the Alien works and then experiencing it!
I haven't played it but it sounds like my kinda game.
1:35 the random cut to Rise of Ronin xD take it down lads
Mad Max & Alpha Protocol was heavily underrated and was a real joy to play.. fun games to experience at least once.
Alpha protocol is a game for a longtime I wondered if was just my own fever dream, no one ever talked about it. But recently a few creators I watch have been bringing it up. It was great for what it was, though a bit buggy. Its a shame you cannot really legally obtain it anymore outside of buying a physical disk 2nd hand and still having a console that can run it.
One of the more reactive games that exists, if you play through it you'll think its pretty linear with maybe a few changes with people who died since it seems pretty seemless. But really there are so many difference depending on choices.
@@imALazyPanda I have a PS3 super slim and got a second hand copy of Alpha protocol. It had been years since anyone had even brought it up & I pretty much went in blind and wow..this game is flawed but an absolute treat over and beyond anything I would have thought...the controls seem jank as hell at first but overtime you get more inclined to it and I just kept loving the game more i played it and understood its depth and complexity.. i respect the passion of the creators because they really tried to do something so ambitious even if it made the game a bit messy in some places..
@@sikevillian a common complaint i see is the controls, and I don't remember them being weird. But I was also like a freshman in high school(or there abouts) and my only experience with 3rd person shooters were gears and ratchet and clank. Also controls were less standardized back then, not as experimental as the ps1 era, but not like today where if you pick up a game in a similar genre you expect they have the same control scheme. It was expected for games to have somewhat different control schemes.
I just remember it being a really cool game, watched my friend play it, then played it twice myself and it was pretty different each time. Which was mind blowing to me at the time, and honestly still is. Wasn't until I played through the Witcher 2 years later any other game had that, where one playthrough exclusively locks out or alters a big chunk of the game.
MAAAN seeing bounty hunter gameplay brought back memories. I used to love that game, played it so many times I still remember the levels yall showed 20 years later. Havent thought about it in forever
One of the reasons I respect this channel so much is that you guys never forget Alien: Isolation.
It is still one of my favorite games, and I hope - beyond seemingly impossible odds - that we eventually get a sequel... Reminding people it exists is definitely a step in the right direction for that dream.
The Order: 1886 is criminally underrated, and really deserves either a remake, or a sequel. Sort of finds itself in the same position as Days Gone, which is a touch sad.
the order would
have been better. 2/3 hours longer and with a coop mode or a 3rd person multiplayer mode like the uncharted series but yes good game i remember really enjoying it at the time.
The way The Order: 1886 has a sequel hook at the end of the game.
I think that what tanked the reception was the release price, 60$ for such a short experience left a bad tase... they should have aligned it with AA prices.
@@Darkprosper This is probably it. I really enjoyed it when it came out but I got it for free thanks to my workplace at the time. I thought the world building and story was really interesting. I do want more of it.
It was criminally treated. You can definitely tell they were a bit rushed to get it out the door from that ending. If it would have just gone a little longer, it would have been better received. I still wish it had a sequel or a re-release, or something. It was just such a compelling world and concept.
fun part about mad max is that this game looks just like games now, so almost 10 years deep and we're standing in the same spot with graphics
The worst thing about Marvels Spiderman 2 is that they didn’t integrate a way to turn on and off the symbiote suit at will. Honestly that’s probably one of the best things Web of Shadows did compared to ALL spiderman games.
Dynasty Warriors has always been my favorite guilty pleasure game. My unpopular opinion of the series is that DW6 was the best.
Yeah that is a very very unpopular opinion. I think they had the best costumes but best gameplay was 8 and story was 7 to me personally
My favorite is dw6 but only because it's the only dw game I have
@@willmael7914 play 7 if you want a great story you can just pick up. The best gameplay is 8 complete edition tho. It’s no clone weapons, 4 musou attacks, and you can level up stats really quick with a nice challenge on nightmare mode
fr! my first DW game was DW5 and immediately fell in love with the gameplay. i then played SW, Warriors Orochi and all DW game released after DW5 (except DW9 lol)
@xn--b81a if you haven't done so already, check out the Dynasty Warriors: Gundam games. DW Gundam 2 was especially good. They have thrown the DW style gameplay into other franchises like Fire Emblem, Persona, and Fate, but it feels right at home with Gundam.
think you got a bit of a wrong cut at the start alien isolation suddenly turned to feudal japan x3
Evil Within could be on this list. Apart from performance issue during launch, the game reignited some of the formula of classic survival horror. Yet thanks to RE series that set the bar so low for survival horror at the time, people complained how hard the evil within was and gave it bad score
But to be fair it was a bit trashy too. Nothing changed there.
I know Falcon doesn’t like it but I think Mass Effect Andromeda is highly underrated because people kept comparing it to their memory of the original series. Its score on Steam was much higher than its original reception probably because the initial, “Its not the same, I don’t like it.” Had passed.
I stopped trusting reviews 2 years ago. So many good games I have played since that have been reviewed poorly.
Only 2, I’ve stopped trusting reviews. For music movies and games since like 2004.

@@drums4lyfe0987 2 years, 2004? I watch/read "reviewers" if they are funny. But opinion is opinion, professional opinion in most sectors now meaning less informed.. Has been this way since the 80's. TBF, it has gotten worse every year. If moviebob said water was wet I'd buy a bottle to be sure.
I just recently played "Mad Max" for the first time after a massive sale, and it's honestly one of my favorite games of the last decade. The world is as bleak and desolate as you would imagine the Mad Max universe to be, and the threat of danger is overwhelming and pervasive. The skill trees and equipment upgrades actually feel impressive, like you're really levelling up towards badassery, and the story becomes intense as it finishes. I've recommended this game to everyone who's willing to listen.
People overhyped breathe of the wild. I’m afraid they’re doing the same with this game. Might play if it’s on ps plus
Yep, really great game. It just came out at a time when people were really tired of the early 2010's type of open world games, even though Mad Max was one of the best examples of this genre.
I got it back in 2017, fully agree. I must have replayed it a good 5 times now over the years. So many things about it just work. To this day I have not played a game with better looking skyboxes. The whole wasteland is gorgeous. Every bit of coverage I see hails it as a fantastic hidden gem and every once in awhile I see RUclipsr post a video praising it. It is constantly on sale on Xbox for as low as $5 and nearly every review is 5 stars. It is a real shame that it is a hidden gem, and that they shut off the online functionalities so many years ago.
@@aidananthony2059
That is the tricky thing with a game like Mad Max. Most people who play it and praise it now go in without any expectations. Someone who is introduced to the game through those player's recommendations will have high expectations, likely too high to ever be met, which leads to opposite effect of people finding the game to be overrated and mediocre. As with anything, approach it with neutral to low expectations and you will not be disappointed.
Glad to see The Saboteur getting some love. Thanks. There is a great Raiders of the Lost Ark Easter Egg during one mission.

Yo Falcon! I think there was an edit OOPSY! 1:37 👀👀
i knew it it is defranco i know that voice!
Eihm, no, that's called a mental jumpscare.
Duh
Something ain't right at 1:36... it's like you skipped an introduction lol
It's like Number 10 is both Alien: Isolation and Rise of the Ronin at the same time.
Bounty Hunter was my favorite Star Wars game, it really gave you the feeling you were a 1 man army terrorizing criminals across the galaxy.
I feel like Falcon was held hostage to record the audio for this video. None of the explanations made me feel like looking over these games again since the presentation was like, “eh these games are okay, they came out and are games you can play, meh!”
To be fair to Prototype 2, there is extra reading material that takes place between 1 and 2 with Alex that helps explain his "sudden" change in position from protagonist to antagonist, but yeah...extra reading material...not anything in the games themselves.
Still, I had fun with Prototype 2 overall and is one of the few games I actually got Platinum on.
I just started replaying Prototype 2 going on the 5th or 6th time since I first got it many years ago well a middle-schooler. It was the one I started with. I bought the remastered bundle on sale in 2018 but only ended up replaying the second game again due to finding the first one rudimentary in comparison (apparently it is the opposite). To me Prototype 2 was always been one of those games that everyone looks back on fondly but I am discovering that my perspective is wrong. I still want to beat the 1st at some point, but all the bad feelings around this franchise kills my enthusiasm somewhat.
The Order 1886 is still one of my favorite games.. wish a sequel would happen.
The Order 1987: you play as a secret organisation making sure "never gonna give you up" returns to popularity in 2007.
I think there is a sequel in the works tho, I saw a trailer with gameplay awhile ago. Started off with the protag in a prison an being called a traitor I think. Sadly I cant recall the name.
I am glad you enjoyed it, and the graphics are jaw-dropping in that game... but I loathed the plot for its predictability and its shortness.
Games can have a predictable story and still be good, but to me The Order 1886 is not one of them.
@@freddieladbury9445I would play that
Same here!!
Totally agree with you, Falcon! I've watched your videos for years now. I played a lot of Batman Arkham and had saved Mad Max in my wishlist. I just purchased it for PC a few weeks ago and couldn't be any happier. Game is so much fun. Landscapes are amazingly beautiful. There's actually so much to do. It is a very complete and entertaining game. Heck, I think driving around in this game is even more fun than doing so in Arkham Knight! So thank you guys for introducing this and many more awesome video games to me!
Honestly, I think the problem is that gamer's perspectives seem to think that a 70% rated game means it's bad. 70% is a good score. I know this distorted view is from school letter grades, but schools' letter grade % ranges are just flawed. 50% means right in the middle - not bad or good. 20% above that is actually good.
Agreed, he kept saying that those games are flawed gems, they're good but have issues, and like... isn't 70% exactly the appropriate score for that assessment ?
Yes! I've made this comparison myself, so I completely agree with you. In school 49% means fail, but this isn't school. If you were thirsty and someone only gave you half a glass of water, you wouldn't be like "50%, that's shit" and then not drink it. You might wish it was more, feel there are ways it could be improved, but you'd still drink it and even enjoy it.
THE SABOTEUR was Good, I enjoyed it a lot because of the opening scene.
I don't want to live in a world where people didn't like THE SABOTEUR
I just hate we'll never have the trilogy they had planned
Alien Isolation is a gem, and sad we haven’t got a proper “retread” or sequel to this game. I’d love a GOOD colonial marines one day.
I would also say Lords of the Fallen (2023) could make this list. After patches it’s definitely more playable on console, however its biggest flaw is severe lack of enemy variety. The same enemy in newer areas just deals more damage and has more health for some reason.
I realised with Alien Isolation how cheap reviewers actually are. Even the ones with million of followers. Just copying the IGN rating and then molding their reviews around that.
Will never forget the critic of Angry Joe: 1. It's not Colonial Marines 2. It's too long. 3. ugly grafic (played it on PS3...) 4. Working Joe
While I can somewhat understand point 4 or at least see how people get annoyed by them the rest is just bullshit to justify the 70% rating of IGN.
Mad Max is just between the Avalanche Engine and the Apex engine. It had the pretty visuals of APEX but the great optimization of Avalanche. This game ran so good
Dynasty Warriors lost its touch when they introduced weapon switching. the original weapons for each character began to disappear and the Open world which is very empty
I would add Days Gone too. A fully functional and polished game got so much hate.
Absolutely agree. I think it was buggy when it first came out, but most games are nowadays. I played it a year after it came out and it’s one of my favorites. It got bad reviews from people that barely played the game. Definitely worth another play now.
It was not functional and polished on release 😂
@@MrReaPeR121 bop
You're kidding right. Look I love days gone and it's one of the most underrated games, but when it first came out. It was bad.
I got it day one and my ps4 crashed a couple times. I played a side quest where the area wouldn't load. It was supposed to be a camp but there was like one person there and many walls. I put the game down for a month and re played it and it was a whole new experience.
days gone in not a big company why it would be here of course, this channel is biased as fuck
Alien Isolation is absolutely fantasic! I finished it three times already and bought it twice to support it (PS4 and PC). The visuals are literally out of this world! The Order 1886 is also great. The steam punk atmosphere is unique, not even Dishonored does it that well. The Saboteur and Mad Max are a couple more pure gems! Love them!
I honestly believe cyberpunk 2077 should have been on this list because so many people I know think its a bad game (and have never played it) because of how buggy it was at its start and the negative backlash it got. So many were convinced widely rhat it was a bad game and it wasn't worth trying out. I'm happy to say I tried it out and absolutely loved it, yet still have conversations with people who didn't know it wasn't an awful game
I think earth defense force should have made the list too. Never heard anything good about any of the games until this year after hell divers 2 blew up. It's a great fun series.
Falcon sneaked in an 11th game and thought we wouldn't notice 😂
The saboteur is awesome. The black and white until liberated was a small thing but interesting. And there are mods!
It's bad. I ended up rooting for the good guys.
Prototype 2 despite not being as fun as P1, is still great to have. Meanwhile Web of Shadows is an amazing game with the best combat out of them all, and the swinging is still better than the new Spider-Man games, somehow. Shame Activision hates money and the only way to get it is to pirate it. They only had just a bit over a year to make the whole game, sure it's not perfect but it's really cool. That is also the game where the Web Strike move originated from that most Spidey games used afterwards!
The order is very underrated
gameranx loves this thumbnail ☠️
People really care about critics or other people's opinion?
Watch some gameplay, maybe 1-2 youtuber you trust and make an own opinion.
E.g. Days Gone - everybody hated on it, I saw the footage and thought: "I'll like that" and had an amazing experience.
More people need to do this, I personally do it with this channel, which makes it even funnier. I wait for the before you buy gameplay, regardless of what they say about the actual game if I like what I'm seeing the game goes on my radar could careless about what critics and game awards and such think of games
Critics know everything and should be followed blindly 🙃
@@12345....... haha the sarcasm is strong with this one :D
Most critics only play an hour or less of a game before they make their decision about the game.
@@Joreel Exactly.
Velma season 1 gets destroyed by critics and fans alike with scores averaging 1* and 2*... gets a second season.
The Order gets and average rating of 5* and 6* by fans and critics a sequel is out of the question! The way of the world is F'n broken, man!!!! I thought The Order was worth a second run!
I agree 100% with #1. If my 360 didn't die, I would still be playing Dynasty Warriors 5 Empires. The fact you could inert custom characters into the story & recruit them or fight against them was awesome. Will you take over or work for the emperor to unite the land? After reading the user reviews on Xbox for the new empires game, I'm disappointed.
Alpha protocol, had 3 classes, the 3 JBs, James Bond Jack Bauer Jason Bourne.
Put the games in the chapters. Not the number.
Too much work. Quantity is what is important
They will get it eventually. One of these decades.
@@Diomedan12432 No they won't. This way, they make you watch more of the video, even if it's just short snippets to find what game they're talking about.
Why would they do that when most people are just gonna look at the titles and click off
Great video! Im glad you went way back in time. Let's also not forget Battleborn, which came out the same time as Overwatch. Battleborn was actually also a MOBA, but had a full suite of content: story campaign that could also be played co-op, customizable characters, skill trees and progression for all characters, background story missions for every character, smooth, competitive MOBA... the list goes on. Blizzard conducted a massive smear campaign against Battleborn that completely eradicated any chance of the game seeing the spotlight despite the game actually being leagues better than Overwatch in many ways.
Yeah, I still prefer battleborn to overwatch since it had a pve mode
Mirror's Edge Catalyst is so criminally underrated. It came out during a time where there was a trend chasing of skill trees and open worlds. Both elements of which docked the game's score across many reviews
Nah, it was just another souless wookie game
Loved the first Mirror's Edge. I played like 20 mins of Catalyst and never touched it again. It seemed like it had lost the magic.
I agree with you. I think the first one is great, and I enjoyed the moved to open world with the improved combat, making it even better than the first for me.
Falcon, I love Gameranx and I'm gonna listen to your advice and play Mad Max, I lost count of how many times you've praised this title, I have it in my Steam library since 2017, I was one of those guys who didn't click with the game at first even when the combat system is pretty solid indeed
Those games are awesome I played one of those
Can't tell you how happy it makes me to see Dynasty Warriors getting some justice!
The Dynasty Warriors series is my guilty pleasure, and DW 8 is my favorite. Mad Max is a bang up good game too, pun intended 👍🏿
Alien isolation was and still a masterpiece
Especially with the samurai battles
Falcon just pitched the next game idea. Samurai VS Aliens!
👍
If I'm going to part with my money for a game, it better have replay value. The Order had no replay value. I beat the game in 4 hours and that was it. No frills. No bonuses. No nothing.
I think Dragons Dogma was a victim of the times. Back then, people did not like it when a game did anything remotely similar to another game. If Lies of P came out at the same time as Dragon's Dogma, then it would've received a lot of bad reviews for ripping off Bloodborne. I remember reading a lot of Dragon's Dogma reviews, and it was all like "It has an open world. They're riping of Skyrim." "It has difficulty. They're riping off Dark Souls." "You can run on rooftops. They're riping off Assaisn's Creed." Some people were trying to defend so-called rip-offs by stating things like "CoD has guns. Is it ripping off Doom?" Honestly, If Dragon's Dogma came out a couple years ago instead of a decade ago, then it would've done a lot better in the ratings.
ummm... Gameranx editing team... what was with that alien isolation jump into Rise of Ronin?
I thought I was losing my hearing at around 1:30
I looked away like 5 seconds prior and started hearing swordplay and talking about weapon options and got very confused and had to look back and rewind lol
Dynasty warriors didn't need to be changed. It was the perfect chaos.
i hate the fact that prototype 1 is STILL unavailable in many countries just because its supposedely so brutal? like seriously? ANY GTA game wreaks more havoc...
You might want to check in on you’re editing guy or girl

Titles the last couple of days have REALLY paralleled the HD2 situation LMAO
Mad Max is one hell of a game. The hand to hand combat has real impact to it. It's fun. The driving is GREAT, and to be honest the environment is amazing. Seriously - you feel a part of the world. Exploration is glorious. I think it's still one of the best games in my library - easily.
My Reaction:
*Dragons Dogma:* Yea Dark Arisen was a life saver.
*Prototype:* fair.
*Saboteur:* casual critics. no wonder its a cult classic
*Mad Max:* wait how!?
*Alpha Protocol:* wait wat!?? fair.
*Web of Shadows:* aint no way.
Are you sure this isn't 11 games with the bonus mention of Rise of the Ronin at 1:36?
Its a Good Game, Pretty fun to play.I don't think he is including it in the list
You mean the order?
dam jake is the fastest comment hearter ever ☠️
Not including dynasty warriors 9; there's maybe 1, or 2 bad "warriors" games. And that's including the non-dynasty/samurai ones about anime series like one piece & Gundam. I never played the dragonquest one, but I'm sure its solid.
Crosscode. Just crosscode. One of the greatest indi games. The game reviewers didnt want to finish it because it was 'hard' so they said its super boring.
The game says right at the beginning its supposed to be challenging, it has an amazing story too. Excitement and drama but not in an depressing way. Great game.
Crosscode is PHENOMENAL. I have over 700 hours in it because I love it so much
A lot of reviewers did the same thing with Rainworld. Too hard so they held it against the game
The 10th entry has 2 games on it, what a treat
I love the order 1886
I'm still waiting for a sequel to this game!!!
20:12 The funny thing about God Hand is that after critics panned it, a gaming magazine got responses showing how deep and complex the game was. They then basically wrote a editorial saying "Yeah we were kind of harsh towards the game and didn't take as much time as we should have to understand it, but in our defense like EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the office tried playing it and no one could get into it" Something to be said about the first impression a game can make on a player
The Order: 1886 deserves a sequel. That game is absolutely amazing. I really hope it gets picked up again someday. They laid some really solid foundations.
Imagine believing From Software games were bad because you’re impatient! I feel bad for people who missed out on the magic of all these games
Trash games. I forced my way through Bloodborne, the difficulty isn't that bad, more cheap if anything.
@@PhaRoaH87 exactly the games aren't hard just cheap , fromsoft fans haven't really played actually hard games
@undary0u right. The people in my circle that love those games and say they're not hard are the same ones who say that Ninja Gaiden was too hard and cheap.
@@PhaRoaH87Git gud
@@RedLeader327 Stay cheap
For me, Outriders, Fallout 76, and Anthem. Outriders has been good since launch, but it had updates that really helped it. People hated it because they plowed through it to the end game and got bored. When the game was never supposed to be a GaaS. It was a story focused campaign game that just happened to have end game. I loved the story and the end game though. FO76. A game that's been good since the Wasterlanders update. People are realizing that now thankfully. And yes Anthem. Definitely unfinished. Had some bugs. But damn was it fun af. Flying and firing missiles at things has never felt so good. And nothing else out there gives that same feeling. Also exploring the gorgeous world. As bad as Anthems rap is, it does still have a lot of good points to it.
Gameranx: "Ten Video games THEY made you think are bad!"
Gamers: "Who made us think they were bad games?"
Gameranx: "Us in other videos."
*I love The Order, Days Gone & A.C. Unity, and a lot of people hates them* 😔
Dude! I LOVE the Mad Max game. I really wish we could get a sequel where you get to ride around on motorcycles and just have a hugely upgraded car/people combat system. I'll never understand why this game got slept on.
The Order 1886 is CRIMINALLY underrated. The graphics hold up today and while linear I thought the story campaign was good, really like the writing. The game really needs a sequel or remake but like Falcon said, will never happen
*HE IS 100% RIGHT ABOUT ALPHA PROTOCOL*
The combat isn't great, but the way the story is carefully molded around your dozens of choices through the game make it virtually UNBEATABLE in that category. Being someone who loves choice-based games, it's still one of my absolute favorites to this day.
@18:18 that has got to be Morty from Rick and Morty 😂😂
DmC deserves to be on this list. If it had come out as an original IP and changed character names but kept the plot and gameplay exactly the same, it would have been received well even at the time. And personally, looking back, I think the whole "dAnTe nO siLvER hAiR, gAmE bAd" outrage was dumb.
DmC: Devil May Cry! I remember everyone hating the game because Daunte wasn’t the same Daunte, which was a valid point, but the rest of the game was so good!
great list Falcon. Alpha Protocol was amazing!!! A spy espionage RPG we need a spiritual successor to asap
The argument here is the same for any game. Some people love game A, some people hate game A & others choose to shit on game A for whatever reason. It's refreshing that gameranx always makes it clear that these are opinions.
Im still gutted about Order 1886.
Idc how short a game is, as long as I enjoyed the experience, and while the gameplay itself wasnt that great, and I dont actually care about graphics, one of the things that really kept me going was the world. Typically I care more about gameplay than story, though if a game has a good story to go with the gameplay, then thats awesome too. But Order 1886 built up this world, and this lore, that was just top notch. I really wanted to continue exploring the franchise, and seeing how deep it went. No game has even come close to doing what Order 1886 did in terms of just the story alone, and we really dont have many games that have werewolves as the heart of the story.
For me. It's Hunted: Demon's Forge and PSI-Ops: the Mindgate Conspiracy. So many innovations that are ahead of our time when it came out
Prototype 2 was the reason for this amazing ips end and closure of the studio.
I wish Sony would bring the Killzone games, and The Order 1886 to PC.
