Drakengard 3- Blood, Crude Humor, Harsh Language and the "censored" parts make me laugh

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure- pretty much what Abe Said

Anarchy Reigns- Sequel to Madworld that's very much a beat em' up without all the stick a tire on an enemy, shove a few Signpost in them, then finally impale them on a wall of spikes

Sakura Wars:So Long My Love- Dating Sim/Tactical RPG that Surprisingly works

Dragonball: Revenge of King Piccolo- It's a Platforming Beat em' up based on Dragonball (not Z) on the Wii that Allows you to use the Classic Controller, or the Gamecube controller and I never hear anyone else talk about this

Hidden gems seems pretty accurate for the games I'm about to describe. These aren't in any particular order, except the last one. I like to save the best for last.

Hatsune Miku Project Diva f: Like abe, I'm a huge fan. I've been following this darling piece of singing technology long before PDF was announced for localization. When I heard she was coming over, I was thrilled. It's so much fun and whenever I mention it outside of here, folks are like, "What's a vocaloid?" *sigh*

The Last Story: While basic bitches were playing Xenoblade and tweeting about it on their iPhones, I was not acting like a Lemming and playing this gorgeous game. A fun battle system coupled with some of the best characters written in an RPG, The Last Story was a brilliant game. Also, 'DAT ARTBOOK!

Atelier Ayesha: Alchemist of Dusk While Atelier is becoming more popular, it still doesn't get the recognition in comparison to other RPG juggernauts. Ayesha is a great place for folks to start if people are interested in this series. Obviously, the game is stunning audibly and visually. The clever item crafting system and the relatable characters make the game even more of a favorite. My 300th review was for this game.

Resonance of Fate: As I play through this game a second time, I can't help but to feel annoyed with Sega for releasing it a mere two weeks after Final Fantasy XIII. RoF offers a unique look at the RPG genre and doesn't pull any punches. Vashyron, Zephyr and Leanne make a wonderful trio that players will get to know as though they're long time friends. Once you "get" the battle system, you'll have a hard time going back to something more vanilla. I really wish more folks gave this game a shot, no pun intended.

Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of Dusk Sea My favorite game of 2015 that, like Ayesha, didn't get the love it deserved. Basically, it takes everything I love about the series and cranks it up to 11.

The original Klonoa Door to Phantomile was a hidden gem.  It was a great, great quasi-3D platformer that nobody bought.  I guess that's why complete copies command upwards of $100 today.
