[b]Underrated[/b] - Vandal Hearts (This is one of those games I would have repurchased on every release of the play station and even today it is still my go to game when I want to play but not sure what to play. Loved the story line, the characters, the options, the game play, and omg the sound track was the first I really fell in love with. I have had 3 copies of this game over the last 20 years. Any time the Disk gets too messed up to play anymore I hit ebay for another.)

[b]Overrated[/b] - Final Fantasy Tactics (God, this one was just a disappointment to me for Tactics games. A simple cash in on the Final Fantasy Franchise name that didn't live up to anything. It was too bogged down, as if they tried to include everything from a classic FF game and a tactics game only to come out with something that felt like a failed kitchen experiment of making a dessert out of sardines. - This was the one game I actually tossed into a microwave and hit start on!) 

[b]Special Mention[/b] - Game that got all the hype it deserved... Suikoden - First in the franchise, and one I wish they would continue today. There was a reason this game got RPG Game of the Year, Best Game Story of the Year, Best Soundtrack of the year (when it was released) and why it is listed as the 82nd Best Game of All Time by Game Informer. It is everything a good RPG should be. 

(And yes, I totally am showing just how old I am with these but I don't care. Yet to find a game that has drawn me in and back again as much s Vandal Hearts or Suikoden. Even today, they are just as enjoyable as the first time I hit ~start~)
