MGS Portable Ops. First handheld PS2-Era MGS after an era where handhelds were Gameboy Advance. And you are basically playing MGS3 on the go. This game gets way too much crap. This was amazing for its time and it even had online MGO.

A few things that sucked dick? Dragging soldiers slowly for 30 miles to the box to recruit their ass was crap.... Even if there was shortcuts it STILL took forever. That was fucking stupid.

Army's Heaven and Sokolov surviving was also stupid.

Notable mentions? The bosses were true MGS style bosses. Peace Walker is a better game in every other aspect (since it's building off of what MGS3 and Portable Ops created) but Peace Walker's bosses SUCKED compared to Portable Ops bosses. And by bosses I mean the humanoid ones. Peace Walker had NONE.

They should have let you fight Ursula and Elisa though.

Crisis Core? Basically my same arguments for portable ops. This game also gets a lot of crap. It's still a really good fucking game.

Killer7 is the poster boy for being a flawed game that is great and underrated.

I also want to hype Batallion Wars and it's sequel for Wii. The world just wasn't ready for a 3rd person RTS on console.

Digimon World 3. Has some issues but overall is an amazing game.

Same with the Digimon World DS games.

Legit came in to say Portable Ops. Nice work TC.

On that note: to many people hate PW.

A little poorly-reviewed Sega RPG called Alpha Protocol. Play it sometime.

Glad someone feels the same as me!

I thoroughly enjoy Peace Walker. The story was much better than PO and it did many gameplay things better. I just wanted to defend MPO.

Assassin's Creed Unity

It had a horrible and buggy launch but the complete product now with all patches is honestly the best AC game to date. With actual social stealth, an option to hide the entire HUD and all the glowing enemy bullcrap, awesome customization options for your character, alot of great and intense swordplay, and not to mention the graphics still look top notch for last gen.

I feel like too many people dismissed it early, then skipped to Syndicate and got bored with the series. Then they changed the entire game after that. I can't stand the new Ass Creed games. Uninspired, grindy, Ubisoft trash.

Dude you led me to googling this line and the first result was a post I made about this 8 years ago on Gamefaqs.
