Resident Evil 4 should be up their because, even though it sold pretty well, it didn’t receive the critical acclaim it should have

I played System Shock 2 and loved it; Butcher Bay is like a cult classic to me. Also, what about Deus Ex?

I didn’t think it did that well; A few good original xbox games I played were Gunvalkryie and Panzer Dragoon Orta. Both were great, challenging games. Whatever happened to games like that?
