Great video, guys! I loved the PS1 era . Back then I played some really overlooked and underrated games: Alien Resurrection, Alien Trilogy, The X-Files, Jersey Devil, Die Hard Trilogy, Xena: Warrior Princess, Mortal Kombat 4, Monsters Inc: Scare Island. Sweet memories from the past
@@MarvelousVideos Thanks so much! I've been missing you guys too! My favorite YT channel! Here in Ukraine, it's not easy to survive under russian missiles but I do my best! I'll try to visit your channel more often in the future! Your lovely videos are the best way to distract from all the terror Ukrainians are experiencing at the moment!
Another instance, when the term "underrated " is actually overused. Most of the games you're showing, were massive hits at the time of release. They were well known, popular, and sold pretty well. We all played them as kids.
My thoughts exactly. I always become interested in videos like these thinking just maybe there will be something I've never heard of...and nope, always the same well known stuff. Beginning to think they're just personalized lists of games the uploaders have never heard of by this point.
@@thebluestig2654Just trust me. There are human enemies in Alien Trilogy. Just type in Alien Trilogy gameplay and then Alien Resurrection gameplay on UA-cam and then you'll get your proof, pal.
Alien trilogy was awesome alien resurrection was not. No one can stomach such an ass game long play for very long. He could get sued for making so many people so pissed they end up vomiting 😂
Take a shot every time the AI-generated script says "hidden gem." Then take another shot every time the AI narrator pronounces something wrong. Also, anyone who calls the PlayStation the "Psi" has no business making gaming videos - and that's doubly true when they do it TWICE. But hey, actually playing the games and writing the script yourself isn't as easy as having an AI generate your script for you.
(insert game name) is set in a dystopian future. It has a unique blend of atmospheric sounds and complex immersive story line, making it a hidden gem. ....repeat.
I think they had a problem with the author of the book the game was based on, that's why they stopped with the franchise and the last game didn't even have the title of Parasite Eve, just the 3rd Birthday. It would be amazing if there was a remake.
Would love to see the Parasite Eve series and Vagrant Stories get remakes or remasters but one is a wish while the other can actually happen if SquareEnix chose to.
I truly think both will get remasters. They mentioned about re-releasing all their back catalogue and they are clearly making it happen every year. As new remasters from them gets anounced. It's just a question of time! :-)
It would be nice to a see a remastered collection for PC and consoles. The love shown to the upcoming Tomb Raider Classic Trilogy remaster games hopefully shows that old games can be brought back to a new audience. Sadly, as is the case with the botched MGS collection, it would appear that there's a multitude of ways remasters can be botched or lazily dumped too.
They will at some point. if they are remastering the original tomb raider trilogy then all games have hope of a remaster. just hope they don’t mess it up somehow
Congrats u found a game. Nice one. And from 50 games 1 that doesnt belong. You so sharp. And immediately berating with a snarky comment. Do better or shut up.
I've not made it thru the vid yet but I hope 'bushido Blade' is in this. The realistic physics, frustratingly complicated combat, the ability to target limbs to make them useless (if ya cut of his leg he has to hop or crawl etc). Even running around chopping bamboo was fun haha EDIT: it was!!! Good job! Haha
Blood Omen and Soul Reaver should be on any positive top list for Playstation. Those games were fantastic. A fantastic series I hope will make a return some day.
Brave Fencer Musashi is an easy top ten from the console for me. A game you definitely missed though is Azure Dreams. Probably the most underrated unknown title of them all. Random dungeon climber, item collector, town builder, social sim wtih a monster taming feature and phenomenal music. A must-try.
Funny, i can relate to this video but as a Sega Saturn owner, so many gems: Die hard trilogy, alien trilogy, croc, space hulk, policenauts, in the hunt, etc
Totally understandable if you wont answer this chef's kiss sort of question But I am curious as to how you are making or rendering the graphics in this bevause my eyes are finding them to be crispy and beautiful indeed Thanks for the video and have an awesome day!
Great choices, especially the Colony Wars series. I used to immerse myself into those games after work with the lights off. Great memories. Another underrated game that I used to have is Treasures of the Deep
You included carnage heart. This list is officially legit. A couple of these weren't exactly underrated like soul reaver, but that's fine. It's still really good and hasn't gotten any sequels
Wait, Vagrant Story does not have pre-rendered backgrounds. One of the things that make up it's unique look is the 3D polygonal rooms. Basically only thing pre-rendered in VS is the opening title intro.
Alien Resurrection: Shows two seconds of it and then shows Alien Trilogy for the rest of the section xD Props for Silent Bomber though, I think I've met 2 or 3 people who actually know what that is. Another underrated game is Tai'fu Wrath of the Tiger, hasn't aged well but I still like it. Also, Hogs of War is getting a remaster for modern platforms, can't wait.
I’ve never heard someone mistakenly referred to the PlayStation one as the PSI?!?!🤷♂️ I mean you made the video, surely you knew that you were referring to the PS one in the script that you wrote? Yeah I guess this is just nitpicking at this point..
Nah this is a valid criticism. It seems like the editor guy paid some dude to do the voiceover but didn’t check the contents I guess cause there are a few moments where the voiceover dude messes up. At one point he repeats the same name like 5 times for no reason? Pretty odd channel in general. Like others have said the script is probably ai generated
@@thx3188 is it? I'm really the only person I know who has ever played it. (My one little brother and I used to play it together. But, he was killed by a train in 2001. That's why I Iove the game so much. It reminds me of him).
Future cop LAPD is my favrit game of ps1 i played it with my bro for hundreds of hours. Fun fackt did you know this game was to be a next instalment in Strike a series of video games created by Mike Posehn, John Patrick Manley and Tony Barnes released between 1991 and 1997 by Electronic Arts. I was big fan of series and have them all and i did not know for many years Cop LAPD was a to be a next instalment.
I feel like Parasite Eve 2 was 1 of those games that was trying too hard to mimic the popular Genre of game at the time which was Survival Horror. Squaresoft did PE1 so well... loved that game, and then Part 2 previews came out lookin like Resident Evil :( I couldn't finish the game because of the RE influence... so now I just replay Part 1 every once in a blue moon.
there is an old japanese movie by the same name btw. also there is a part 3 on the psp by the name 'the third birthday" although that one was made an fps.
These are underrated? That's bullocks. Many of them are well known and sold well. Heck, I personally knew a lot of of them and played through 12 of them.
I think when we say "Underrated" is it should be a game that is not that popular but enjoyable to play. Lets say for example games outside the top 100 games in terms of sales.
What on earth was that attempt at an AI narrator? Terrible. Also discussing Alien Resurrection while displaying Alien Trilogy footage? Lazy, lazy AI video.
Fighting force originally was being developed as seeking to become the 4th entry in SEGA's streets of rage series. Croc was originally intended to be a game super Mario game where yoshi was going to be the star of the game.
Check the prices of some of thise underrated gems and you will see that people don't underrate them at all. Underrated means good games that are cheap in the collecting world not expensive and rare games.
Can anyone help looking for a game the game starts of in what seems like an underground facility there are scientists there in the beginning there is large glass walls its a stealth game can barely remember the game know it was on a ps console believe that I did have a gun in the beginning
You know you're getting generic farmed out content (descriptions probably ripped off from somewhere) when text to speech gives itself away at the start of the video with "PSi".
Great video, guys! I loved the PS1 era . Back then I played some really overlooked and underrated games: Alien Resurrection, Alien Trilogy, The X-Files, Jersey Devil, Die Hard Trilogy, Xena: Warrior Princess, Mortal Kombat 4, Monsters Inc: Scare Island.

You are back! Where have you been all these years? We have been missing you on our main channel Irina!

Die hard trilogy two was the one to play. That game was awesome.
Why are you showing the gameplay of Alien Trilogy as Alien Resurrection?
This was going so well... till you show images of Alien Trilogy instead of Resurrection... 😢
Another instance, when the term "underrated " is actually overused. Most of the games you're showing, were massive hits at the time of release. They were well known, popular, and sold pretty well. We all played them as kids.
Exactly. Croc might be the most egregious example. It sold more than any Tony Hawk game, how is that underrated
fair enough.
My thoughts exactly. I always become interested in videos like these thinking just maybe there will be something I've never heard of...and nope, always the same well known stuff. Beginning to think they're just personalized lists of games the uploaders have never heard of by this point.
this right here... I expected some hidden gems I had never heard of, instead I got a best of well known games that are on pretty much every list.
my brother this is a 100% AI generated video from the script down to the editing
The third game you showing us is Alien Trilogy, not Alien Resurrection.
I don't remember human enemies in Trilogy. Both games play roughly the same and look similar.
@@thebluestig2654Just trust me. There are human enemies in Alien Trilogy. Just type in Alien Trilogy gameplay and then Alien Resurrection gameplay on UA-cam and then you'll get your proof, pal.
@@thebluestig2654 There were indeed Human enemies in Trilogy- I played the heck out of that game on the Saturn.
Gameplay footage of Alien Trilogy is shown while supposedly talking about Alien Resurrection... I've had enough with that.
Alien trilogy was awesome alien resurrection was not. No one can stomach such an ass game long play for very long. He could get sued for making so many people so pissed they end up vomiting 😂
*ostensibly
Idd incredible this mix up.....
That game croc literally picked it up for $10 back in the early 00's....man loved that game really wish I could go back to those simpler days

Yes. Parasite eve 1 and 2 was a masterpiece
Most underrated youtube channel!
OMG I finally found Evil Zone, after months if not years of not being able to pinpoint it .. old memories ;) Many thanks!
(insert game name) is set in a dystopian future. It has a unique blend of atmospheric sounds and complex immersive story line, making it a hidden gem. ....repeat.
Disney Tarzan is set in a dystopia future.
Comment invalid
Parasite Eve 2 is sinfully underrated and a shame that still no remake was made for the next-gen PS consoles!
Better than The 3rd Birthday, that's for sure.
I think they had a problem with the author of the book the game was based on, that's why they stopped with the franchise and the last game didn't even have the title of Parasite Eve, just the 3rd Birthday. It would be amazing if there was a remake.
I absolutely loved Soul Reaver it deserves a reboot.
No.
Would love to see the Parasite Eve series and Vagrant Stories get remakes or remasters but one is a wish while the other can actually happen if SquareEnix chose to.

They will at some point. if they are remastering the original tomb raider trilogy then all games have hope of a remaster. just hope they don’t mess it up somehow
Future cop has always been my favourite game since it came out.
Hope You Include Evil Zone Such a Good Fighting Game also Ben 10 Voice actor Paul Eiding voices a character kudos
Soul reaver is a hidden gem? I guess crash bandicoot and metal gear solid must be hidden gems as well.
Congrats u found a game. Nice one. And from 50 games 1 that doesnt belong. You so sharp. And immediately berating with a snarky comment. Do better or shut up.
I don't think Reaver is mainstream like the other two you mentioned.
Soul Reaver is not even close to being as popular as metal gear solid of all things.
Soul reaver is actually the best game ive ever played on the ps1 that is one gem that isnt hidden
Soul reaver on dreamcast is the way to go 👍
I love this this. I think you missed Azure Dreams. That is a gem amongst gems.
that´s not Alien Resurrection, that´s Alien Trilogy in the video.
I've not made it thru the vid yet but I hope 'bushido Blade' is in this. The realistic physics, frustratingly complicated combat, the ability to target limbs to make them useless (if ya cut of his leg he has to hop or crawl etc). Even running around chopping bamboo was fun haha
EDIT: it was!!! Good job! Haha
Cool video that gives me some "new" old games to try out.
My list would add Incredible Crisis, RC De Go and Tomba.
I found front mission 3 randomly a few years ago. Honestly one of best games for ps1 give it a go it is actually a gem
Dipped out when you read PS1 as PSI.
Blood Omen and Soul Reaver should be on any positive top list for Playstation. Those games were fantastic. A fantastic series I hope will make a return some day.
Brave Fencer Musashi is an easy top ten from the console for me. A game you definitely missed though is Azure Dreams. Probably the most underrated unknown title of them all. Random dungeon climber, item collector, town builder, social sim wtih a monster taming feature and phenomenal music. A must-try.
Great list.
This is a really good video; however, Bloody Roar and Soul Reaver are not underrated games, everybody which enjoyed PS1 era knows those are gems
This very correct, Bloody Roar and Soul Reaver came out with several squeals.
Never heard of Galerians but it looks pretty cool. DL now to try it on a handheld.
Timestamps are a bit messed but I liked the video overall!
Loved the video! Helped me to check some games that I never heard about. Thank you!
Funny, i can relate to this video but as a Sega Saturn owner, so many gems:
Die hard trilogy, alien trilogy, croc, space hulk, policenauts, in the hunt, etc
Subbed
Totally understandable if you wont answer this chef's kiss sort of question

Thanks for the video and have an awesome day!
Upscaling?
Amazing games really nice
Great choices, especially the Colony Wars series. I used to immerse myself into those games after work with the lights off. Great memories. Another underrated game that I used to have is Treasures of the Deep
not really. a lot of these are well known

My uncle played Fighting Force back in the 90s
10 minutes in and I am like "that's mostly a best of PS1 list, where are the underrated games?"
But it's a nice video for sure
Would be nice to have the tile card(maybe with the release date) all the time on screen. But nice video, didnt know about the Alien game at all.
Bloodomen was so underrated, that get a whole series of sequels :D
Would add Loaded, One, Apocalypse, and Contra Legacy of War
Cardinal Sin is truly underrated. The game has one badass final boss. Nobody ever talks about it.
Probably because it's not a good game.
Is there a reason why you have a habit of saying psi instead of ps1🤔 By the way interesting list of ps1 game's thanks for sharing the memories😊
The person reading the script is deffo not the writer.
It's a stupid AI
If everybody knows it it's not a hidden gem and if it's in the top lists of PS1 games it's not underrated. Still nice video.
I'm shocked from Omega Boost! Hideo Kojima DEFINITELY inspired by this game. It looks like the og predecesor of the Z.O.E at PS2 series
I never knew Giles Brandreth narrated game videos 😂
That’s Alien Trilogy not Alien Res. At least make the effort! 😅
Alien Resurrection: Shows two seconds of it and then shows Alien Trilogy for the rest of the section xD
Props for Silent Bomber though, I think I've met 2 or 3 people who actually know what that is. Another underrated game is Tai'fu Wrath of the Tiger, hasn't aged well but I still like it.
Also, Hogs of War is getting a remaster for modern platforms, can't wait.
Croc is amazing but my god the controls. Revisiting it after like 1.5 decades is love hate. Mostly love though lol
I’ve never heard someone mistakenly referred to the PlayStation one as the PSI?!?!🤷♂️
I mean you made the video, surely you knew that you were referring to the PS one in the script that you wrote?
Yeah I guess this is just nitpicking at this point..
the whole video and the script seems to be the work of ai

Some games I'd include would be Overboard, Wing Over and Micro Maniacs
The editor needs to be fired
I agree.
Agree
@5:21
Talks about Alien Resurrection while showing gameplay of Alien Trilogy 🤦🏻♂️
This video is pretty obviously AI-generated.
You showed a clip of Ehrgeiz: God Bless the Ring, at the end, but you didn't include it. Why? It's such a great game!
Fighting game with a feather-light RPG include?!?!? So... good!
I think because it’s an underrated games list. Ehrgeiz is pretty well known
@@thx3188 is it? I'm really the only person I know who has ever played it. (My one little brother and I used to play it together. But, he was killed by a train in 2001. That's why I Iove the game so much. It reminds me of him).

Many of these are super well known... Some actually underrated games: Bomberman fantasy race, digimon world, monster rancher 2, einhander
coming back i gotta admit a bunch of these i never heard about and look pretty cool
Space Hulk was class
Also, Future Cop is pretty accurate depiction of what California is like today
soviet strike would be great choice
Unholy Wars is another great one.
I feel like Parasite Eve 2 was 1 of those games that was trying too hard to mimic the popular Genre of game at the time which was Survival Horror. Squaresoft did PE1 so well... loved that game, and then Part 2 previews came out lookin like Resident Evil :(

Vagrant Story is hard
Some of those titles are far from underrated let alone hidden gems.
These are underrated? That's bullocks.
Many of them are well known and sold well.
Heck, I personally knew a lot of of them and played through 12 of them.
Bushido Blade is not set in feudal Japan. Evidence: chain link fences and helicopter landing ports.
Akuji must be here too
Before even watching this video I will say if Bushido Blade 2 isn't on this video I will freak out......
(Will update after watching the video)
This voice over is hilariously bad. Did you find this guy on Fiver or something?
Oof, the ozzy has spoken his judgement. Love your content man neat to see the comment lol
It's a stupid AI
I never remember the title of tale concierto. I used to play it as a kid coz my sister mistakenly bought it hahaha.
I think this channel uses AI voice to narrate
How could you forget to mention...OMEGA BLAST??!! Nice list anyway.
I think when we say "Underrated" is it should be a game that is not that popular but enjoyable to play. Lets say for example games outside the top 100 games in terms of sales.
Rising zan and clock tower would be good games on this list
What's a PS-i?
i know right. i had to do a double take listen. the narrator did not write this script and is a def normie.
What on earth was that attempt at an AI narrator? Terrible.
Also discussing Alien Resurrection while displaying Alien Trilogy footage?
Lazy, lazy AI video.
We need a bloody roar remake
Brawo.... Poland ☺
legend of dragoon ❤❤
Still playing Parasite Eve 2
Fighting force originally was being developed as seeking to become the 4th entry in SEGA's streets of rage series. Croc was originally intended to be a game super Mario game where yoshi was going to be the star of the game.
Why when you talking about Alien Resurrection I see Alien Trylogy?
Check the prices of some of thise underrated gems and you will see that people don't underrate them at all. Underrated means good games that are cheap in the collecting world not expensive and rare games.
When talking about Alien Resurrection you have one brief clip of the correct game then the rest of that segment your showing Alien Trilogy instead
WTF??? this is an/ Alien Trilogy game!!!! very not liked!!!
Do you know any other terms than just "hidden gem"?
Future cop is so accurate of DTLA lol source: I live in DTLA
PS … i ?
you miss vandal hearts
Squaresoft and Enix were not the same before the 2000s
The AI voice called it a PSI instead of PS1. We're doomed.
Can anyone help looking for a game the game starts of in what seems like an underground facility there are scientists there in the beginning there is large glass walls its a stealth game can barely remember the game know it was on a ps console believe that I did have a gun in the beginning
5:19 of Leá Monde, of Leá Monde, of Leá Monde, of Leá Monde wtf hahaha
No Fear Downhill Mountain Biking
Ah yes, the good old PSI ..? Maybe train your AI to recognise the number 1 for a start...
Dude, do you even listen to the voiceover audio that your outsourced voice over guy gave you? Do some editing
No Koudelka? No Legend of Dragoon? They are heavy underrated.
I couldnt stomach Koudelka, every character is an unlikable tw@t especially Koudelka herself
Did you have a seizure?
over half these games are not underrated. in fact they still get talked about quite a bit in retro circles
Vagrant story is not an underrated game. Its known for being one of the best rpgs on the ps1.
You know you're getting generic farmed out content (descriptions probably ripped off from somewhere) when text to speech gives itself away at the start of the video with "PSi".
