Games with not enough attention?

Rogue Galaxy's combat was fucking terrible. Nothing but mashing, and the animation and hit detection was terrible. Plus, having to pause the game to search through menus just to equip a special gun so you could fire one shot at an enemy then go through the whole process to switch back was the worst design decision ever. It was incredibly tedious, and I can't think of any reason why you should need to do that, or if you did need to do it, why all the special guns couldn't be combined. The weapon upgrade system was pretty much a waste of time, and the item factory was a pain in the ass. Like I said, the bug minigame was the best part, but it was way too easy (flip beetles basically mangle everything but the hardest fights).

Other than that, the game was linear and ugly.
 
FFXII STORY was the normal war torn fantasy world spill, with uber baddy deciding to become bigger baddy and then you defeating him. The story is fine, just unbelievably straight forward and generic...... and slightly bad lol.

But yes the character development didn't exist outside of their first meeting, and Ashe at all. Well except maybe Basch. But it was BAD, and Vaan didn't even exist, let alone be our "main". This is THE most annoying and stupid thing i've seen in a long time from an FF game. I mean really.......

but still it was MUCH better than Rogue, better looking, better music, and definately played out much better than Rogue galaxy even if they were both bad. But FFXII wasn't bad at all, better than XI and better than III lol. I found it quite good, even though i REALLY didn't like it
 
I have tp agree about the gun PAge, but aside from that I would take Rogue Galaxy any day over XII. Plus XII really was essentially the same thing since attack is so overpowered. Items and Summons are a waste of time, and the magic system is awful. I don't see how they let the magic system stay the way it is. With the slowdown magic takes freaking forever to caste unless it is a really low level spell. Plus the fact that only two high level spells can be caste at the same time is just stupid. I remember I actually used that against a boss once so he was getting a spell out maybe once evry 2 minutes.

BTW I thought the item factory was really addictive.
 
At last Melee was a good game(heck its a great game). It should be pissing you off that Brawl(which is a terrible fucking game) is more popular that pretty much all non SF fighters combined.

Anyway these games didn't get nearly enough attention.
