Anyway, I would have to say
Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath seems to be quite an underdog. Although to be honest, a lot of people dismiss this game outright without even
trying to get into it, so perhaps it's not the same thing. I can sort of see why someone would be hesitant to play an Oddworld game--I never liked the Oddworld series. But once you start playing this it's instantly clear that this is a
completely different game. A graphically gorgeous alien-Western world, with dynamic alternating 1st and 3rd person gameplay, and some of the funniest writing/voice acting of any game, ever. Good stuff.
I also didn't get all the bad reactions to
Yoshi Touch&Go. Before I got one, I never would've thought the DS would be any good whatsoever, and this is the game that made me change my mind. I played that game for hours and hours. I'm guessing people just expected a new Yoshi's Island, and were disappointed because of that. I think the game is way fun.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
