Arx Fatalis? The spell-system is made of pure win. Same with stats actually having an effect on your body and appearance, and so on. Backstory is neat as well.
Might and Magic: Dark Messiah. That was awesome. Everyone I know of, and have heard of since hates it. Even if they actually think Oblivion is a good game, they somehow hate Dark Messiah.
Grandia 2. "Fiiiireee---ballll!!!". And "This is My Ultimate Attack: Dragon Horde Slash!!!". Best way to do translations, imo.
Is Granstream unliked? I've not spoken to anyone about that title who didn't like it.
I've never heard of it before, but a quick glance reveals that HG has two reviews of it, and both reviewers hated it (though I must say, the staff review is a pretty shoddy excuse for a review. I assume it's old).
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest (SNES)
Unlimited SaGa (PS2)
There are probably a number of other titles that I just don't realize are as loathed as they are. The problem with a number of older games is that people sometimes hate them for being old, not necessarily for being bad. I tend to discount hatred for those games unless they were widely hated even around the time of their release. And of course, it's hard to know with NES games and such because I lived out in the sticks and the Internet didn't exist. The Internet makes the hate a lot more evident now than it ever was back in ye olden days when gamers tended to be a lot more satisfied.
If you liked SaGa Frontier, Joe, you really might want to try Unlimited SaGa. I believe it's cheap anywhere you can still find it. I really found it refreshing and different.
Some of my favourite games already listed: Grandia 2, Unlimited Saga, Jade Cocoon, and Evermore and I enjoyed Mystic Quest too. But out of those only US seems to get nearly unlimited hatred which I've never understood.
I'll add a few more: Koudelka, Shadow Madness and Fifth Element. All the criticisms are true but I still liked them. A more recent one that get a lot of flak is Sands of Destruction.
If Secret of Evermore was disliked, that's the first one on this list that I can say I liked. I'll at least give Saga Frontier a middle-of-the-pack half-thumbs-up sort of thing. It was good in small doses...just doing the same quests over and over with every character got tiring.
I'm giving Rogue Galaxy a second chance after I gave it a mediocre/bad rating and I might be a bit more in favor of it. But I'm in the early stages of the game when I liked it initially. It was around the fifth or sixth chapter when I got sick of it.
Masters gave Faxanadu a blah rating and I love that game, so does that count?
Is Evermore hated? I think my sense of the general opinion on SNES/MD-era games comes from reviews I read at the time. Evermore scored somewhere in the 90s, as did other games that ROM-centric 'retro' gamers today seem to hate, such as Kabuki Quantum Fighter and Star Wars on NES.
Perfect Dark Zero - Not a bad game.
The Granstream Saga - Very cool, especially that shower scene.
Urban Champion - Sucked hard.
Arx Fatalis - Awesome stuff.
Might and Magic: Dark Messiah - Never played, so I don't hate it.
Grandia 2 - I was told to stay away!
Altered Beast - Rules. I like playing as a beefy dude who collects balls.
Bokosuka Wars - Have not played... yet.
TMNT on NES - Never really cared about the Turtles, so didn't do much for me.
Thunder Force II - Bad game! Bad game!
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - No one likes this game.
Unlimited SaGa - Never played, but I liked Saga Frontier.
Jade Cocoon - People seem to love this game, but I haven't played it.
SaGa Frontier - Cool people dig it.
FarCry: Vengeance - I'm sure I'd hate it.
Power Blade - I don't even know what this is.
Secret of Evermore - Got good reviews because it was Square, but people actually hated it at the time.
Koudelka - Bloomer reviewed it once. I still need to play this.
Shadow Madness - Is this the one with the awesome cover art?
Fifth Element - Cool movie.
Sands of Destruction - Haven't played.
Rogue Galaxy - I heard this game was awesome?
Faxanadu - Only the antichrist would diss on Faxanadu.
Simon's Quest - Terrible. Glad no one in this thread is defending it.
Virtua Fighter 2 (GEN) - A pretty good fighter, actually.
Kabuki Quantum Fighter - Classic stuff.
Star Wars (NES) - I have no interest in trying this.
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - No one likes this game.
Except everyone in this topic! =D
Wow, I really didn't enjoy Secret of Evermore, if it's the game I'm thinking of. A little boy running around in slime beating up on slugs for three hours at the start?
Secret of Evermore was the first title Square developed in North America, as I recall, and was intended to be the spiritual successor to Secret of Mana. A lot of people expected that, and Nintendo Power also hyped its heavily, but the general response after the game actually arrived was an air of general disappointment. I've never played it, myself.
There also seems to be this disdain for Secret of Evermore because some people like to think the latest Mana game at the time was passed over for this.
Perfect Dark Zero - Never played it, but I've wanted to despite the lackluster reception.
The Granstream Saga - Awesome. One of the few games on PSX with worthwhile anime cutscenes.
Urban Champion - Never played it, never wanted to.
Arx Fatalis - I didn't care for it, but I may try it again in the future.
Might and Magic: Dark Messiah - I've wanted to play it.
Grandia 2 - Loved it.
Altered Beast - I'm also one of the few who enjoy this game. I agree 100% with Leroux's review.
Bokosuka Wars - I also agree with Bloomer. I was going to review this until I saw his review. It pretty much blew my argument out of the water. I'm holding off on reviewing it, or possibly not doing a review at all. It'd pretty much mirror what Bloomer already covered.
TMNT on NES - Meh. It's not as horrible as people say it is, but I still don't are for it.
Thunder Force II - Never played it.
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - I like it for what it's worth, but it's a tad too repetitive. I do like that you can basically make it as easy or difficult as you want by neglecting to fight battles.
Unlimited SaGa - Want to play it, actually.
Jade Cocoon - I enjoyed it.
SaGa Frontier - Good stuff.
FarCry: Vengeance - I like it better than most people, but partially for the wrong reasons (like a really bad scene in the beginning when an enemy calls you a "bastard guy").
Power Blade - Zig: You're probably not missing much. It's basically Mega Man meets Castlevania, which is where most people rip on it. I enjoy it, but it's nothing great.
Secret of Evermore - I liked it, mostly because of its b-movie references.
Koudelka - I also liked this.
Shadow Madness - I keep hearing this game didn't deserve the negative reviews. I do want to try it.
Fifth Element - Never played it. Never saw the movie. Not interested in the game, but maybe one day I'll watch the movie.
Sands of Destruction - Never heard of it.
Rogue Galaxy - Only played a few minutes of it, but I do eventually want to go through it.
Faxanadu - My opinion on it changes every time I play it. I need to play it one final time and have an ultimate opinion.
Simon's Quest - Fuck this game. I'm planning on reviewing it in October.
Virtua Fighter 2 (GEN) - Never played it.
Kabuki Quantum Fighter - Great stuff.
Star Wars (NES) - Which version? The US version looks crappy, so I'm not too interested. The Japanese version looks even worse. Darth Vader turns into a shark at one point in the game. I shit you not. And it still looks godawful.
Alpha Protocol- Downloaded it for PC just before the damn thing started pulling its bullshit. It's on the shelf for a while, but I do want to play it.
Also:
Dark Cloud 2- I like this game. So there...
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance- I also like this game.
There also seems to be this disdain for Secret of Evermore because some people like to think the latest Mana game at the time was passed over for this. Dunno if this was true or not.
Fair point. I don't know if Seiken Densetsu 3 being passed over was anything to do with Evermore, but I can certainly see how people would see it that way. Mana fans (including me) would have loved to get the next game in that series. That's why I didn't like Evermore at the time, but I think if you go into it not expecting Secret of Mana, it's a decent game.
Wow, I really didn't enjoy Secret of Evermore, if it's the game I'm thinking of. A little boy running around in slime beating up on slugs for three hours at the start?
Ha, yes, that's the one. That first section was a bit of a chore. A poor choice for the opening section, I think.
sooner or later someone is going to say they liked Loom. And they're going to go: "Ask me about Loom! Ask me now!"
Ha! Nicely done. For that, you get a golf clap.
..I liked Yager and Vexx. People were playing Halo, and I played Yager. "But look, you can fly! The animation is awesome! It's almost like Cyberia..."..
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - I DON'T LIKE IT!!! It's not atrocious and I guess it'd be a good RPG for fourth graders, but I prefer something with a bit more difficulty that I won't cruise through in a couple days. Speaking of which, I'll be typing my Bonded Realities (XBox Indie) review today to put up on Sunday or Monday (so it won't interfere with my RotW doing).
Power Blade - I bought this game discount and beat it a long time ago. I don't remember it well enough to review it, but have no real desire to play it again. One of the many playable, but unexceptional, action titles of that time.
Secret of Evermore - Another thing that might have rubbed players the wrong way was how the ending seemed really rushed after three good (at least after the slug-killing wars of the first part's beginning, as mentioned earlier) areas. The future world just seemed thrown together with an anti-climactic boss rush bit at the end.
Rogue Galaxy - In my replay, I'm to the beginning of Chapter 4. As I recall, I'm in for pure hell now, as the enemies take a major jump forward in difficulty and until my secondary characters adapt and build up their weapons, it's a major challenge just to keep things under control. I'm doing a bit more grinding this time in hopes of keeping ahead of the curve building up weapons (and to get more bounty hunter points for monster quotas), so I'm hoping this time, things are a bit more routine.
Kabuki Quantum Fighter - One of these years, I have to play this and Shatterhand. I've thought both look intriguing for many years, but never got around to either.
Dark Cloud 2- People dislike this game? Yeah, it does get repetitive at times, but it's a fun game. It's in my list of "beat, but not truly beat" games like most Star Oceans. Where I've beat the game, but not all the post-game optional dungeon stuff. Think I've done the first few rooms of the post-game dungeon, but I have a long ways to go there.
When Dark Cloud 2 came out, it became an obsession at my apartment. I was living with a few people at the time, and we wound up with two copies circulating. I think everyone played it--religiously--except me. I watched people play and it looked incredible, but I was busy and when I had time, someone else was usually on the TV.
Grandia 2 - I was a big fan of the original and I remember being so disappointed after playing it since it was one of my big reasons behind buying a Dreamcast. Skies of Arcadia made me feel better afterwards.
Alpha Protocol - This game is an unfinished mess but it's somehow enjoyable in spite of it. Not enough for me to stomach a replay though.
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest - The soundtrack is pretty good. The rest of the game is not.
Altered Beast - I feel like the voice samples for the game are iconic and the gameplay not so much.
TMNT on NES - I think I got this game for my birthday when I was like 6 years old. The dam level can go fuck itself.
Simon's Quest - No one likes this game and if you do, you're lying.
The closest thing I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is Killer7, but after writing up a description of the game for here, the more I think of it as more of a cult game rather than a disliked one that I enjoyed a lot.
The only "I like it regardless what everyone else says" that comes to mind right now is Wizards & Warriors on the NES. This was chosen because those who had either rated and/or reviewed W&W have given it a reception as cold as an Alaskan January.
I'm well aware the W&W has rather dubious gameplay quirks. Why is a special set of boots required to kick open treasure chests? How is it that bees can injure a knight who is clad in armor? Whose bright idea was it to require 100 gems in the final level when only 60 or so are readily available?
Despite these oddities, I still like -- not love -- Wizards & Warriors. The controls work well, there's no need for precision jumping, about 99% of the game's platforms can be reached without much difficulty, and it's one of those games that does not require me to put too much time into for me to enjoy.
Or, for those who want a concise answer, Wizards & Warriors is 8-bit comfort food.
Wizards and Warriors was great fun when I was young. Then I tried playing it a few years ago and the magic was gone.
Still, it got a lot more NES-time from me than Ironsword (beating the final boss was exhausting enough that I haven't played it since...occasionally I'll YouTube the music for that final area because it's awesome, but that's it) and the third one (rented once, got pissed, the end).
Not that I loved it or anything, but I quite liked it, mainly because of the unusual combat system. The general consensus, in contrast, seems to be that it was bad.
I thought of a game I like that other people seem to hate: Yo! Noid (NES). I really like that game, but even here it has scores of 6 (aschultz) and 3 (johnny_cairo). I like it more than both of those fellows. I still get some of the music stuck in my head.
..so.. er.. rapper-aliens from outer space invading earth..? :p
...here's another game I liked that.. probably sold three copies. Aiken's Artefact. With Ice-T doing the voice. Top down perspective, running around with psycho-powers. Boom. Fry, ****hole!

I understand and agree with Bloomer's take on Bokosuka Wars.
TMNT on the NES gets pretty diverse opinions, but mine leans toward the most positive of them.
But not a lot of other good examples come to mind.
