From what I've heard Folklore was actually pretty well liked in its heyday, though to be fair there's a reason the "no games" meme still kinda lingers and Folklore was from that era.

Also, anything with pic related in it.

why was this game good? I've seen gamplay and it looks clunky.
>>
>>342644416

Gameplay is decent. The level design is pretty uninspired but there's a decent flow to leveling creatures and swapping them out for new ones to keep combat a little fresh throughout. Generally though the aesthetic is quite good - music, story, visual design, that sort of thing. I liked it well enough and it didn't overstay its welcome length-wise, though you do have to play through each part twice for each character, though the creatures and story angle are different for each one.

It's really sad, actually. Bandai Namco threw them under the boss for some odd reason. They purposely kept the game lowkey that e3, only showing it outside of the public area to a small group of people, had ZERO marketing, then overprinted the game and declared it would be a million seller.

The game was so hard to find information for outside of their claim it would sell over a million. It had so little attention amazon put it half off day of release. Game republic was closed right after release.

It's a shame, because it's seriously one of my favorite games last gen. They could have done so much.

Posted this earlier in a similar thread, might as well do it again while it's dirt cheap.

It's a fps and a colonial america MURDER simulator. You get to kill red eyed spaniard and burning demonic indians during the day time, and when you switch to night time you get to kill skeletons and wraiths instead.

You do this while carrying on investigations about the countless murders and rapes committed in the remains of the colony you're exploring. You're a 15th century Phoenix Wright, armed with muskets, flintlocks and bows and with an attitude for putting restless souls to peace.

It's got a good spook factor and you get to kill minorities all the time (or their dead counterparts, hard to tell when they're bones).

I enjoyed playing as Keats, but the wagglan gimmick drove me up the fucking wall.

Then I had to play as Ellen to further the story and I dropped it. The waggling got even worse and even more inaccurate and the fights started having you rely on status effects, I just couldn't go on anymore.
Maybe I'll finish it when I'm really bored.

Don't know if it really qualifies as "hidden", but pic related. Too bad I sold it, I kinda miss it now since I neer beat it. Specifically because it's one of those games that locks you out of a super important quest item if you don't follow the optional sidequest steps. Wish I didn't sell it because now I can't find it.
Overall a decent Zelda 1 clone, has it's charm.

Way too hardcore for /v/.

Only true masters like Icycalm recognize its greatness.
http://insomnia.ac/reviews/xbox/gunvalkyrie/
>Gun Valkyrie was Smilebit's other ground-breaking 3D action game, every bit as ingeniously conceived and masterfully executed as the first one, though on a whole other level in terms of complexity and challenge — which is why it came nowhere near Jet Set Radio in terms of popularity, and why nowadays hardly anyone knows it.

>To be more precise, it's not that GV is that much harder to beat than Jet Set Radio (I think they both took me about the same amount of time to finish); it's that the former boasts a hugely more complex system than the latter, and therefore one much harder to master — this being part of the logic of things: as everyone knows, complexity gives rise to depth, and depth requires skill in order to be mastered.
