When Critics Don't Get It: Cool games with yellow Metacritic scores
Lessons in not judging a book by its cover. Feel free to suggest stuff if you have some favourites that got dunked on critically, there's definitely more than this.

I'd like to submit Snake Pass for consideration on this list, upon further replays I have found that it is in fact fantastic and quite misunderstood
Added Snake Pass there now, thanks.
I agree with all the stuff you put in, some of these suggestions not so much lmao, very cool list idea
@Kago Cheers. I've inadvertently created a great wall of Mega Man in the middle, but I feel like he deserves it.
Cyberpunk's inclusion miffs me a bit. It was only the OG console versions that got middling reviews, and most (if not all) of those reviews mentioned that the game itself was fine, but that both were subpar ports at the time of publication.
@Yultimona I just slap anything on here if at least one port or version of it fits the bill really, Cyberpunk’s not the only one in that basket. All this is is an excuse to either big up or encourage trying out a bunch of stuff which somebody might otherwise bounce off of by looking it up and seeing a dodgy number next to it, to that end I reckon it’s probably best to just keep it as simple/loose as possible.
Ah, yeah. See your point there now.
