Best game that no one ever played was Grim Fandango.

It is the last true Adventure game that was ever made and has a great film noir style storyline with a twist (it's set in the mexican underworld) it has an amazing soundtrack that's a great mixture of jazz (mostly early, swing or cool) and spanish. It also has some of the best voice acting around and has brilliant puzzles. To top it off, thanks to perfect art direction and pre-rendered backgrounds, the graphics still look good 6 years after its release.

It can even be ordered off of lucasarts.com for about $18.00.

Actually Grim Fandango was quite a popular game...

Toonstruck on the other hand was muh less known. By now it's very hard to find and play though, since it's a DOS game. I think it's great though.

Some other games that are great and in my opinion underrated: Dark reign and Earth 2140. Both great games but I think not too popular.

Try Grandia II for the PS2 or Dreamcast (if you own one). It has the most intresting magic system. Not to mention the graphics are pretty good.

Crimson Sea 2 for PS2. Kinda like a futuristic Dynasty Warriors.

I'm sure it has plenty of fans somewhere (including me :), but no one I've talked to seems to know about the excellent game Skies of Arcadia for the Gamecube.
