10 Criminally Underrated PS4 & Xbox One Games You Must Play
Enjoy some hidden gems before the next generation kicks in.
With the changing of the console generation only a few weeks away at the time of writing, it's easy to approach the situation with a tear in your eye, and it's a tear formed by multiple stimuli.
Firstly and quite immediately it's there because OUCH MY WALLET IS GOING TO TAKE A PUNISHING, but secondly, this salty little fellow is stinging because, for some, it's time to say goodbye.
As we move to the new (and hopefully improved) consoles, not everyone is going to make the jump with updated remasters and ports, and even more never truly got the love they deserved, and are likely to be lost to the sands of time.
So what better time than now to look back at not just the stone-cold classics of the previous console generation, but to the absolute gems that were buried before having a chance to shine? This is a list of games you owe it to yourself to play, and each brings something new to the table.
So, let's send them off with a loving and heartfelt toast. Cheers!
10. Gravity Rush 2
With all of the superhero-themed games that have completely flooded the market in recent years, it can feel like any new tale in this genre falls through the cracks, and even though this has definitely happened to Gravity Rush 2, much like Kat's ability to invert gravity itself, this game deserves a chance to soar through the air once more and into the public spotlight.
From a mechanical perspective, Gravity Rush and its sequel offer something truly unique, a chance to traverse an exceptionally beautiful world the way that Buzz Lightyear always dreamed he could. For you're never flying per se merely "falling with style"
Adding in weightless combat to the mix as well as a nice bit of puzzle-solving, Gravity Rush 2 is the game that keeps on giving. Plus it's one of the few titles that uses side missions to build on events of the main game, allowing you to understand the relationships between the floating islands and the people who reside within.
It's honestly hard not to fall in love with this title.
