10 Perfect Video Games (You've Never Heard Of)

Before Activision dumped them on Call Of Duty support, High Moon Studios made a couple of overlooked yet awesome games, like 2013's Deadpool, and 2010's Transformers: War for Cybertron.

But the cream of this particular crop is 2005's Darkwatch, a game that had all the makings of a breakout hit (in fact, publisher Capcom was so confident, they had plans for it to become a cross-media franchise), yet floundered out the gate.

An FPS that slaps together the western and horror genres, Darkwatch has you controlling a vampire with the painfully-unimaginative name of Jericho Cross, who is recruited by an organization to combat supernatural threats. It's sort of like The Order: 1886, only way less popular, and way less dull.

Not to dunk on The Order too much, but Darkwatch wears its B-movie aspirations firmly on its sleeve, and it's all the better for it. One crazy level has you riding undead horses while a winged mutant chases you from the air, and a jaunty western score plays in the background. Cheesy? Yes. But incredibly cool? Also yes.

Gunplay is also way more satisfying than it has any right to be, with booming sound effects on your weapons, and enemies that explode into showers of blood. It's glorious, and Darkwatch is a game that we all slept on back in the day.
