Went onto inspire much more popular games and went mostly forgotten but between its soundtrack character designs and great set pieces.
If you like deadly premonition this is made by the same studio and deserves your vote.
You would think that there would've been, between the success of stuff like Mission: Impossible and James Bond, an absolute glut of espionage-driven spy games, but that hasn't quite been the case! Spy Fiction was janky, as others are saying, but I haven't yet found a game that has tried quite as hard to replicate the spy experience. You sneak around, you carry out missions, use fun gadgets to accomplish said missions - and the big feature: you can disguise yourself as nearly any character in the game. This was such a fun thing to play around with, and makes for some really cool situations. It also adds a bit of replayability, since, of the two playable characters, only one can disguise herself as male and female NPCs, while the other can only disguise himself as male characters. This means some parts of some missions will have to be approached differently, depending on who you're playing. If you've ever played Deadly Premonition, you'll know what you're up against since this is the same director and developer. And this certainly feels like a blend of MGS + Deadly Premonition + and that old Mission: Impossible game for the N64! Wish this had gotten a remaster or a rerelease in the same way Deadly Premonition did, but I would be thrilled if a straight PC port emerged, courtesy of GOG!
Can't believe that even obscure titles such as this made the list . It's combat is incredibly janky and the story is a bit all over the place but it cannot be understated how truly unique this game is at times . So many fun gimmicks and interesting set pieces that sadly no other games to my knowledge tried to replicate

Valkyria Chronicles 3: Extra EditionSenjou no Valkyria 3: Unrecorded Chronicles, usually referred to as Valkyria Chronicles III, is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Sega for the PlayStation Portable. It is the third game in the Valkyria Chronicles series and was released on January 27, 2011 exclusively in Japan. An expanded version of the game, subtitled Extra Edition was released in Japan on November 23, 2011. The game features an opening song もしも君が願うのなら (Moshimo Kimi ga Negauno Nara?) sung by Japanese singer May'n.
Occurring in the same time frame as the first game, Valkyria Chronicles III is a side story that follows the exploits of an unwanted and castigated Gallian Army squad during the Imperial invasion of 1935.[3] Contrasting the previous games' bright outlook and recognition for their protagonists, Valkyria Chronicles III explores the themes of being outcast and the search for redemption. As described by its catchphrase, the game tells "The tale of nameless soldiers who, on the verge of despair, changed history."
The game was the first in the series to not officially be translated into English by Sega. However, an unofficial fan translation for the Extra Edition was eventually released in December 2013.Action Historical Warfare Drama
Valhalla Knights: Eldar SagaThe lands of Eldar have long been known as the origin of chaos, a place where monsters and demons wreak havoc, indiscriminate in their madness. Legend tells of how the Spirit King, whose coming was heralded in by a meteor shower, gained control of the creatures and waged an unrelenting war upon civilization. Order and life were brought to the brink of destruction, but an alliance of the four races was able to drive them back and seal the evil. Centuries more have passed and once again the lands are slowly being overrun by the reemerging monsters. Without a known cause or even a united front to repel them, it would seem that this time, Eldar will fall. It is up to the main character to take up the forgotten mantle of the hero, reunite the races, and confront the hordes of monsters.Action
