What's a game that got critically and player panned that you enjoyed anyway? (hexbear.net)

Was thinking about Lost Planet 2 the other day by Capcom and how much I enjoyed it. I didn't get the chance to play it co-op or multiplayer but Lost Planet 1's multiplayer was fun, especially the mode where you can be an alien and fight snow pirates. I think the west just wanted another Gears Of War clone, and even though 2 took a lot of inspiration from Gears (it even featured it's hero as an unlockable character) wasn't enough and critics and players panned the game. It's hard today to find anyone even playing it anymore and it seems to be dead. Shame.

Shadow The Hedgehog

The game is short, so you can use it to kill an hour or two, but it still has enough levels for some decent variety and the branching path structure lets you stick to playing levels you like

Also, it's trying so hard to be edgy and serious within the constraints of an E10+ rating that it's honestly kind of adorable

Gotta play that someday. I skipped it back when because of the bad reviews, go figure.
